DearPrudie: How can I get them to come around? I cannot have a life of this. Help!
My sister lives within a day’s driving distance and has a relatively new baby . She wants us to visit her, but is still very cautious about COVID and she is not comfortable seeing us unless we wear a mask while indoors or within several feet of her baby outdoors, even though her baby would be vaccinated by the time of the visit. She would have us stay separately and visit during the day, due to her COVID concerns.
It may turn out that the trip doesn’t feel like a bunch of pairs and one singleton, but rather different groups hanging out, sharing common interests. You also might want to think about inviting a friend to go with you as a plus-one. There are a lot of advantages to vacationing on your own–your own bed, command over your schedule, etc.–but if they’re not going to bring you joy, then bring someone else platonically and see if that changes things.
