NC.

I would like a bit of perspective from others on this please.

My DB has a new DP of about a 1.5 years. I'm really happy for him as he is happier now.

The thing is when I first met her it was a quick hi then she went in. I thought she maybe shy and that's fine.

Fast forward a bit of time and she will not speak to me. They're very full on and moved in within a month. My DN's took a bit of time adjusting to this which is understandable. My DN's are very close to me. I take them on my holidays, days out etc. Their own mum left.

DB's DP is close to my DSis. They go out every so often and she said to my DSis she doesn't like the fact that my DN's look up to me like a mother. DSis actually said maybe I should stop taking them on holidays etc. I just kind of brushed it off, I was really hurt by this comment.

They had a party last weekend and everyone was invited but me. I only found out about it on the day and DM said just come along anyway. I didn't because I wasn't invited. I found this a bit snakey in all honesty.

My DM & DSis seems to excuse her behaviour. I've tried on several occasions to speak to her and she just will not have any of it. It's got to the point where I think I just won't bother anymore but don't want to make it awkward for DB as I know he is happy.

It's got to the point where DB only phoned me when he is by himself which I find odd.

Sorry for the rant.

Would you keep on trying or just accept she doesn't like me?

Also just to add I don't just randomly text or call my brother everyday. I send a text once a week asking how they all are but I usually don't get a response.

Is she really 'new' after a year and a half?

Can you talk to her? Or him?
