u/No-sense-2820 eloped with her husband over this past summer. Some of the motivating reasons behind that were that his family were "traditional" and didn't want to invite her to their house if they weren't married.

Who on earth refuses to meet their children's partner in 2022 just because they aren't married? Also what is it with the, dramatically increasing, number of people excusing their older relative's or in-laws' behavior as "being traditional". Every time you see this come up it's an excuse being made for someone who is out of touch and awful.

These in-laws aren't traditional. They're hateful and cruel. Whether or not she had brought a salad they would have found some reason to take offense to her existence. I can't believe how hard they are making this for her. Like how hard is it to prepare something, anything that doesn't have meat in it? It's a bloody salad, Karen and Ken. It's not going to kill you.

Her husband sounds like he has done a pretty good job of supporting her. But he needs to really stand his ground for her like this husband who went off on his entitled brother-in-law.

AITA for bringing my won food on a family dinner at my in-laws house?
