My dad hates my partner

Im due to go spend time with my family for early Christmas and cant take my partner due to this.
It’s making me feel like crap not being able to take him.
My other family members are changing things to fit in with my visit so don’t want to cancel but its really bugging me. As well as making me feel guilty as i cant tell him he isn’t invited all because my dad doesn’t like him.

I don’t know what to do

Do you know why your dad doesn’t like him?

You need to tell your partner and then you need to decide where you spend Christmas. Your dad doesn’t have to invite your partner if he doesn’t want to. As hard as that is, you will have to accept it.

He doesn’t have a reason

Same with my dad wont visit me if he’s around

Im not expecting for it to be all perfect or that but its not fair for my partner to be excluded from things just because one person doesn’t like them

No it isn’t fair but what can you do? Force invites? Give ultimatums?

Is it fair if other siblings partners are invited but exclude one?

Tell your partner the truth and tell your dad that your partner is apart of your life and you won’t keep doing things without him and if your dad doesn’t accept that he’s the one missing out
