Nah my boyfriend and i (8years together) have always done separate family Christmas as our families are based opposite ends of UK, and it's not possible to do 'two in one day/split the day' and not fair to make older family members travel 5-6h to meet in the middle for the Christmas weekend. I go home he goes home, and we spend time with our respective families before reuniting.The question about who she is spending Christmas with on her stories shows that they both see each other as separate from their families rather than a part of it
I agree with her view point here, Christmas isn't about travelling between houses, or being away from your family, so if doing separate Christmases is more realistic then I say that's good!
