Hi everyone,
I dont post that often, but i guess i just wanted an outlet to express how I feel. Im not close to my mum/sister/brother anymore because they disowned me for choosing to marry outside of the religion.
I only have 1 or 2 friends but we arent that close anymore as they're busy with their lives and have problems of their own.
So anyways, DH has a sister who is the same age as me, 25. A brother who is 30 and a mum and dad. Whenever im around them, they will never say hello to me, never acknowledge my presence. I have to be the one who says hello first..all the time. Today i waited, and waited to see how long MIL and his sister would go without making eye contact and saying hi..but i felt petty so i just said hello how are you guys, hows work? All i got back was 'hi'. And they carried on with what they were doing.
All of this started when i was told that it is a tradition for the baby to be named by DH sister. I was shocked because it is beyond me that anyone would even do this in this day and age. Plus, since ive fallen pregnant me and DH have been discussing names etc. So of course we told his sister that we are choosing OUR baby's name. After that day, shes been ignoring me, she gives me dirty looks, i hear her whispering about me to her mum..things like 'i dont know why my brother fusses over her so much, shes not the first woman to get pregnant'.
Theyve told DH not to make me a cup of tea, or help me cook because he is not my 'slave' and that i should do it myself
Me and my husband are a team. We do whatever needs to be done in the house, whether its cooking or hoovering..or laundry.
I just feel so lonely, and down. Thank you in advance for reading all of this. I cant talk to anyone else x
