[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am not sure I have the advice you are looking for or the support you want because I came to a different conclusion.  I have minimal contact with a particluar sibling. My choice. But since I did almost all the work in the relationship she does not notice.  I just decided I did not want ti be that person who cuts someone off.  It felt overly dramatic to me.  I felt like I could shift my relationship in my mind and heart without taking drastic means.  It has worked well.  I am nice when I see her and leave the door open for the future.  I feel a little sad formthe relationship we will never have but mostly, I am pretty good with it.

To answer your question, I would not have felt good about " cutting someone out".  [/quote]

NP, but I agree with this this. I don't agree with cutting people off, especially family members. But you don't have to let them occupy an important place in your heart. I don't go out of the way to see them ever, or initiate contact, but I am always polite and cordial, and I always invite her if I'm inviting other family members. [/quote]
