[quote=Anonymous]I'm sorry that sucks. When you all do get together, are the gatherings joyous and fun? I had an uncle who would go years without seeing family - only show up for weddings and the like. My aunts always complained that he never could make time for family, but then when he did, he got to spend the whole night hearing grief for all the other family events he had missed. Unless they wanted money, then they'd be nice. So, overall it was pretty miserable for him to come to anything with his sisters.

Obviously, that's not your exact situation, but when you are at family functions, you aren't guilt tripping everyone about all the things you weren't invited to, right? As long as you're not being miserable and ruining the family function for everyone else, then I think it's really wrong of your family to exclude you. I have a brother who's really hot headed and tends to make a scene, but we all know the deal and we all deescalate together - even with that, we never exclude him from stuff. He's family and always welcome. [/quote]
