I Have a Question

why dont my brothers ever ask me over for thanksgiving? my parents are both gone, they dont ask my twin sister either. i know they have it cause when my nieces were little i would get pictures of them sitting around the thanksgiving table, my brother is the only one with a family, the rest of us never got married or had kids, i feel like im missing out on getting to know his wife's family and also my nieces, theyre like strangers to me, they wont call, write or email or facebook, neither will my brothers or his wife, i feel terrible about it like they dont consider me family, i only live a state away so i couldve just bussed it there. have no idea why theyre like this, my friend asks me over but its not the same, so why do they do this, i havent done anything to them to cause this, any ideas? and yes they make good money so getting me a plane ticket wouldnt have been a problem, i see them other times but rarely.

My dear Pearl!! Brothers usually and gradually after making their own families forget about their sisters...

I never go to my brothers' (maybe once a year) but we meet at mom's or they come to see me..

I guess it is their wives who dont like guests ... there is not a day that goes by in which my brothers and I dont call each other to ask how we are...

I guess staying in contact helps a lot..

Do you stay in contact with them??
