We had a better than usual Christmas Day as in no tears or traumas!
My children (early 20s) always celebrate with their Dad on Boxing Day.
DP who doesn't live with me, always spends the day with his only friend who would otherwise be alone - I respect this, as its important to them as well as a long standing tradition
My parents choose to spend both Christmas Day and Boxing Day with my brother and his family despite me inviting them to mine (I suspect it's because he is more affluent than me also male and eldest)
I try not to be hurt by this - and have been invited to join them tonight for supper
Not sure if I will go though as still feel odd one out, have to drive there (quite a way) can't have a drink and will have to leave early ish)
Decided not to sit at home and brood - thankfully coffee shops are open locally so am sat watching the world go by - may even go for a brisk walk along the coast later if the rain keeps off
Still feel desperately lonely today though
