[quote=Anonymous]OP, you're skipping some steps. You are going from 100% effort and sacrifice and effort on your part to contemplating making ZERO effort. And all this time, you haven't bitten the bullet and *directly communicated* your wants and needs. 1) Identify when/where you are willing to travel, and let them know you look forward to visiting then 2) ***Propose specific dates when they can come visit, and actually invite them, don't just expect them to wake up one morning and want to visit***** 3) If they question/push back on this new approach, clearly state that the frequent travel is wearing for you, financially and logistically, and that you'll still visit occasionally, but if they want to see you more than that, they are always welcome to come stay with you[/quote]
