Today I have to endure an afternoon with the MIL and DP's 2 nieces. My dd loves seeing her cousins and I'd never deprive her of that but my god do I HATE having to spend time with them! Sound awful don't I?! Bit of back ground:
DPs family talk to me like I'm a child - I'm 32. I feel incredibly condescended by his DM, brother & SIL. There were some family issues about 6 years ago - which I could write a whole other thread about! - and due to this all conversations were hushed in other rooms, mail secretly slipped to DP and our relationship hushed up for the sake of his ExW. Ever since then I feel like all they are interested in is DD and couldn't care less if I was there or not. If I try and start a conversation with them, they change the subject back to them and some times BIL doesn't even say hello to me when I enter the room! I've spoken to DP and he says I'm being stupid and picking on his family for no reason but I feel like I have a right to be heard!
My question is, WWYD faced with being made to feel like this and more importantly any survival tips for me this afternoon because I am literally sick to the back teeth with it!
