My partner was born in London but has a massive Irish family, with cousins living all over the world.
One of his cousins is now living in London and they see each other quite often, sometimes on their own after work sometimes with other family members.
I have met her a couple of times over the years in massive gatherings but would like to see her again.
Last week my partner, younger son and BiL went out with her and her son to see a kind of exhibition game that her son is interested in.
My son has just said that his dad, as they were saying goodbye, said she should come over to see me and the eldest boy who is partner’s stepson. She just replied that she had no ‘bandwidth’ to deal with other people’s partners and stepkids.
I feel really offended. I can’t speak to partner as my son has asked me not to.
Am I being sensitive?
