[quote=Anonymous]I can tell you things that have made me feel not a part of the family. - Want us to come on family vacation and offer to cover spouse’s costs, not mine or our children once we had them and indicate it’s fine if just spouse comes - Exclude me from family photos because they are for blood only - Send my spouse lavish gifts for Christmas (think iPad, new phone, custom tailored suit, while I get a candle I’m allergic to) - Never consult me on requests and then send me denigrating letters and emails because it’s clearly all on me when my spouse says “I’ll need to discuss with spouse” and then the answer is no - Write me lists of petty complaints about our house and hosting after every visit - can’t ever remember my parents or only sibling’s names - still don’t know where I work (been there 18 years, the entire time we’ve been married) I haven’t seen them in years because I now take off when they visit and I utterly refuse to go along with trips to their house.
