[quote=Anonymous]I couldn't even tell you who was at the last family funeral I attended, because I was really sad and out of it. I feel like there's something beyond "gifts/acts of service" going on here - OP expected something specifically out of this exact person and not other people (like girlfriends she told not to come), and she's really excited to get to hate SIL for failing to pass this unspoken test. Is she younger, richer, prettier? Or is she not being a "woman" in the right way for OP's taste, not handling all the emotional effort of the extended family, taking too many fun trips with girlfriends, doesn't have kids yet so she "doesn't get it"? The level of dedicated upset doesn't read as simply as just "I wish you would have made the trip" to me. This is some personal baggage.[/quote]
