If you are asking me to prove it, feel free to suggest what would constitute proof of existence of a public post that several folks replied to before it was erased. Also tell us how you want us to prove that the sky is blue .

If she had low self esteem then I definitely wouldn't be with her nor would she be where she is today. I admire her confidence and her never say die. I'm truly lucky to have her but I wish she would have more understanding.
Someday, years from now, you may realize what you have lost. My FIL was an escape artist - whenever things weren't going his way, he would disappear for the day, sometimes a weekend. This was before cell phones.
His wife died after many years of illness and when she passed away, I think he started to realize he had no friends.
He enjoyed his own company but now, he regrets not doing more with his family. As the DIL, I had a close family but if you wanted your space, you had it. On the other hand, if you wanted to be included, we were more than happy to include you.
I'm sure your SO is also still waiting for you to step up and act like a man.
I'm starting to suspect troll.
So I guess acting like a man constitutes never doing what you want to do? I compromise a lot for her. I guess I have to compromise on everything. Good thing, your idea of being a man means nothing then.
Well she's quite clever. Too bad she had to trick you to be with her and her family for a few hours on a major holiday. Guess you need to be with someone who hates holidays and family or whose whole family is dead.
Another year with my partner asking me to go with her to visit her family. I always decline but it's annoying to be asked. I never stop her from visiting her family nor do I ask her to visit my family (heck I don't visit them). Anyways, we debated and I ultimately got my way by not going or so I thought.
Yesterday I was chilling at home eating a sandwich and wearing a wife beater. That's how you know I'm really nice and relaxed when I'm wearing a wife beater. Then my partner walks in the house and her family is following behind her into the house with food. I'm trying to watch the early Lions game but I'm quite frankly shocked because I've been had.
While her family walks in with this touchy feely stuff. Calling me buddy and trying to hug me and ask me all of these questions. It was like the longest 5 minutes of my life having every member trying to hug me and shake my hand. I'm thinking the entire time how this girl just lied to me. I immediately went to my theater room upstairs and watched the rest of the game. She walked in saying that they miss you and haven't seen you in over a year. They would like for you to come down and spend some time with them. I pretty much told her that not after the stunt she pulled. I got dressed and left the house to a local storage room which has this lovely clubhouse with a pool table, video game consoles with games, plushy couches, microwave, fridge and a big screen TV for its members. I watched the game there and ate pizza. I came home and the bedroom was locked and a note posted on the door which said "Your preferred pillow is in the guest bedroom. There is always Christmas."
I'm not mad that she hosted her family for Thanksgiving at our place. I'm annoyed that she didn't just tell me so I can have a chance to leave. This is just as much her house as it is my house. So I would have like for her to say "Hey, I'm hosting my family here whether you like it or not." That's all that could have been said. I wouldn't have objected and I would leave the house for that time. I'm quite disappointed that she lied to me by telling me she was leaving to travel to her parents' place again. She even made it believable by packing bags like she was staying overnight. She really did the most and I don't appreciate it.
I guess the only thing you did wrong was not asking these people "what the f**k are you doing in my house? I'm trying to watch the game."
You should do that for Christmas.
Was there a question you wanted answered or were you just venting (touchy feely :P)?

Sad for both of you
