Just that. We're heading towards divorce by the end of the year. He's taken the DC to his side of the family and I've hardly seen them. Children are having the time of their lives being spoilt by their dad's side of the family and getting lots of attention but I've been cooking all day and feeling really left out. My family has always been a big letdown. I invited them for Eid but they said they had other plans. All my friends have got their own plans with their families and I'm feeling like I don't matter to anyone. The irony is I enjoy social gatherings and hosting so much but I've been ostracised by every family member I know (in laws have always hated me because of the fear that I'd taken their son away- they'll be having him back soon and my family because I've seen through the games they play and called them out on it and they've not liked that). I don't want them in my life but I feel their absence on every Eid. I don't know if I should've kept my mouth shut and ignored my principles- calling out the bullsh it when I've seen it and let my family carry on as they are or ignored it all and pretended they were nice people.
Apologies. I know this post probably makes little sense but I'm feeling so down right now and there's too much to go through to explain why I've been left all alone as I am right now.
