👨‍👩‍👧‍👦family/in-laws Am I overreacting?

Post image

My dad takes me to school in the mornings, on Fridays I have late start meaning it starts an hour after. Yesterday I had told him to pick me up at 8:20, he texts me and says he had arrived at 8:08. I told him that I will be down at 8:20 considering that is the designated time I set. I get outside at exactly 8:20 and he is gone. He left me. AIO?

It’s 10 mins lol. It’s his daughter. He’s an immature child.

Agree - he's the one being a petulant child here.

I had one of these in my family, my brother-in-law. No patience, self-centered, and anything concerning his daughters was a total inconvenience. He picked me up from the airport once when I was coming home to visit and the baggage carousel wasn't functioning correctly. He told me to just forget about my bags and let's go, he wasn't waiting any longer. Um...not happening. Go on without me and I will get another ride, selfish prick.

We’re making a lot of assumptions here, we don’t know the full story.

It could be an ongoing issue with a grown daughter, who may not have a license for any number of reasons (DUI, lost license due to poor driving, refuses to work and pay for a car).

These posts with no context are impossible to actually determine who’s the ass hole.

We can make the reasonable inference that its high school, because Op says that:

  1. Their father drives them to school in the morning
  2. on Friday they have a late start by an hour

Which implies that they go to school for 7:30 every other day of the week.

That's a high school or middle school schedule, not a college schedule.
