[quote=Anonymous]I do not have children and attempt to socialize with my sister who has an almost 2 year old. I love my niece, she is precocious and adorable but I also miss socializing with my sister. Since she gave birth to my niece it’s been really difficult to get her attention or meaningfully engage with her about any subject other than by niece! She’ll invite me over to hang out, but will spend the entire time talking to and playing with my niece and following her around. Which I understand she must as that’s how toddlers are, but I’m not able to have any conversation with her at all except make comments about my niece! I’ll just sit there or follow my niece and sister around while she talks and engages with the little girl. I feel invisible! After my niece goes to bed she will understandably be excited and go quiet and scroll her phone. I miss my sister! And I miss having a relationship with her. [/quote]
