[quote=Anonymous] Haven't read beyond the first page, but here's my 2 cents: What if you visit the family you want to see during the summer? If during the rest of the year, not during an important holiday, but the week after or before, as school vacations allow? Then if you don't "have time" to drop in with the rest of them, well, it's not going to be so much of a snub, because it's not a holiday gathering. And I agree that at some point in your life, OP, you HAVE to assume responsibility for your own happiness. Otherwise you'll never be happy and you only have one life to live. I came to that realization in my late 20s - my parents gave me a very isolating and socially stunting upbringing, and there's always drama and conflict whenever we visit them. I have learned to be happy for myself, regardless of what they do. [/quote]
