Family dinners can be quite a pain especially if you are 24 and unmarried. From annoying aunties who want to know your life plan to pesky cousins who want to grab your phone and click selfies, family dinners are quite a task. If you have a big family and meet them often, here are 14 things we bet that run through your mind during those long dinner dates.
1. How long does it have to last?
2. I hope I don’t have to sit next to that annoying aunty whose constant concern is my marriage.
3. I hope that fun cousin of mine makes it to the dinner get-together.
4. I just wish that cousin of mine hasn’t scored more marks than me.
5. Will it be rude to leave in half an hour?
6. Why is my boss not calling now when I actually need a work emergency?
7. Maybe the kids’ table is a better place to sit.
8. I hope the food is good.
9. Why do we need to do this every month?
10. Oh shit, grandma is coming over. Just smile and nod.
11. I am tired of pretending that this kid is cute. He is so annoying and rude; why doesn’t someone smack him!?
12. Oh crap, where can I find some wine?
13. If I hear the words ‘marriage’ and ‘settle down’ one more time then I’ll scream.
14. No seriously, I need some alcohol to survive.
