Is she inviting him to stay with you? If it's just for dinner or something... I can understand why you're upset, and she should have told you earlier, but I'm going to have to take her side. It's been a few years. She's allowed to have a life, and she shouldn't have to hide it from the rest of her family.

Agreed. I can totally understand why they're upset, but seriously I don't see the problem with their mother inviting him over for dinner. Especially if it has been a few years.

this, tbh. I do sympathize but it's been years rather than months or weeks since the father's passing. plus, the day after christmas doesn't really seem like a big deal like christmas or even christmas eve would. it's not like boxing day (or whatever americans have on the 26th, if they have anything at all) is a sacred day after all. and fifteen days in advance seems like a pretty suitable amount of warning. again, I can definitely understand having a strong reaction to it but at the same time I don't think the mother really deserves to be blamed for it unless there's something else going on that wasn't mentioned in the post. it seems like a difficult situation all around

The U.S. has no Boxing Day tradition except for the after Xmas sales.

Agreeing with this. I mean, I feel bad for [user name="shinyhappypanic"] feeling bad, but a few years isn't a small amount of time, and her mom is certainly entitled to move on and find some happiness, hard as it may be for other people. I'd feel differently if she wanted to invite a guy she'd known barely a month to celebrate Christmas like he was family (just to celebrate, not so much, but to celebrate like *family* yeah, that's different), but that doesn't seem to be the case here.

Yeah, I think I agree. To some degree, I sympathize--holidays are always a difficult time--but OP is kind of reacting as if her mother were hooking up when her father is barely cold in his grave--
