[quote=Anonymous]You should back off. They are distancing themselves from you and you are trying to force the relationship. You asked them what was wrong and they said "nothing." That's EXTREMELY hurtful of them, but there isn't much you can do to force anyone into a closer relationship. I'd call once a week and send pictures when I had them, but I would back off otherwise. If they don't call you back, let it go. Focus on the beautiful child in front of you. Focus on your friends. Focus on your community. For Thanksgiving, give each parent a call and say "Hey, we need to plan Thanksgiving, call me back." If they don't call you back, give them another call and say "Hey, if I don't here from you by X day, it will be too late for me to make plans. If you don't call me back, I'll have to cancel." If they don't call you back then don't go. Make other plans. If they call you at the last minute to plan Thanksgiving, don't do it. Stick to your plans. [/quote]
