There are two people in my life I need to confront over their recent actions but I really hate confrontations! I don't feel I express what I need to yet in my mind I know what I need to say.
The first is a work colleague who I know will stab me in the back, she's a complete cow and I don't trust her. I don't want her friendship but I know I have to be professional. My line manager won't deal with her, I think she may have something on her.
The second is a family member who has excluded me from a family event. I don't believe it's intentionally, they have been caught up in the excitement of the organisation of everything and I am not on their radar so they have totally overlooked us. I'm normally ok with having limited contact with this family member but considering we have been left out/forgotten about, I am quite angry about it. It's an important event but now the event is next week, the family member has tried to squeeze us in but I really don't want to go now as an after thought. Plus there is work and travel commitments that need to be arranged.
I haven't said anything but tried to remain polite about the whole thing yet inside I am furious. I don't want to make a huge deal about it but I feel like I have to say something, but how.
