I'll try and give as much detail without making this ridiculously long.
I have been with DP nearly 6 years, we have a DS who is 4.
The last year has been a tough one for us due to some idiotic behavior of DP's part and interference from his family.
We were both young when DS was born (I was 17, DP was 20) and his family have very old fashioned views so were shocked and disgusted (at me though not DP)
DP has a younger brother who turns into a very vile person when he has been drinking. He has said some awful things to me in the past and questioned DS's paternity on many occasions. I'll be honest and say DP has never stood up for us like he should have.
This particular brother has a 2 month old baby with his girlfriend. I have never seen the baby in the flesh only pictures. It is the babys baptism in about 2 weeks time and I am not invited although DP and DS are.
Myself and DP do not currently live together and the baptism will fall on a the saturday that it is actually my turn to do something with DS so I would also be loosing out on the only weekend time I have with him. DP has him every second weekend friday-monday and other weekend sunday-monday IYSWIM?
DP's whole family will be there as will his other brothers Girlfriend.
I have NEVER done or said anything to explain why the particular brother hates me so much.
AIBU to be hurt that DP would take DS and go without me and not even stand up for me and demand that I be included in some way?
Of course I realize that it is his nephew and I would be a cow to ask him not to go.
I'd just really like some advice on how to deal with the situation? Hopefully something I can show to DP? If you don't agree with me at all I fully accept that and feel free to be completely honest.
