Is it just me or is there anyone else that doesn't get invited anywhere by family?

Any family event, I'm the only one that doesn't get an invite. Like HELlO, I'm still alive. I'll just pretend you don't exist either. RUDE.

I get invited for the major holidays by my son. But there are ways to overcome your own situation. If you would like to see your family, and if they are people you enjoy being around, you should invite them over to your place. It usually works both ways. You can do a pot luck.

@4meAndyou I wouldn't like to see them anymore. I've had 6 years of this now. I think the time is up. I feel like they only like to invite people that have kids.im the only one that doesn't.

@lucetta12 If that's how you [i]really [/i] feel, (I don't think it is), then it should make you happy that they don't invite you.

@4meAndyou the fact is, I wouldn't of gone. They have never invited me and that's what pisses me off. My boyfriend was away for this Christmas and last Christmas, so I was alone and they didn't invite me.

@lucetta12 It's the thought that counts, right? And it sort of stings that they didn't invite you this one time when you needed them. But that is exactly why you should invite them to your home. Friendship and love, even inside a family, usually starts with one person extending a hand. You already know that they have given up on you. Perhaps it's time to extend a hand.

@4meAndyou I did invite them to mine but they wouldn't come. I don't have kids, so I don't think I count. They are more interested in the grandkids.

@lucetta12 Oh my goodness. Perhaps you had better start small. I would begin by just sending a card with your news, and end with..."I think about you at the holidays, and wish I could see you again." Make sure they have your address and your phone number. If they never write back then I would just write them off.
