had baby 6 mnths ago and at family gatherings keep coming across news that my cousin and her husband have been frequently meeting up with my bro and his mrs. we all live in same area around 10-15 min drive... i am on mat leave and wud've liked to be invited out... my bro especially knows this as i pointed out during my first mat leave. they openly talk bout it so don't think it is intentional. i asked my bro bout not inviting me and he goes he was thinking bout my children and cares for them... so what he doesnt want their mum to hav a good time once in while?
i asked my cousin and feel like a right old clingy and desperate person. she said it was last minute plans. plus she told her mum who dislikes me anyways and told my bro bout how i was sending a text like that to my cuz when they had given me a roof over my head when i first came to the country.
problem is now that i know this i cant be bothered anymore and even if they invite me to family gatherings i make excuses not to go....i feel quite offended that my own cousin did not want to hang out with me.
