My sister (30) is going through a divorce and is dating a colleague who is 13 years older than her, whose "crazy" wife up and kicked him out (yeah, not my business but I can't help but raise my eyebrows).
My mom is staying at her house to watch the kids (4 and nearly 2) until she finds day care, and my dad and I are going back and forth between home and her house (over 500 miles one way). I (33) have cerebral palsy, and my parents are my caregivers, so I am part of the "packaged deal" with them.
The boyfriend has been over at my sister's 3 times when I've been here, and not once has he greeted me or acknowledge my existence. I know my speech is harder to understand, but most people can understand me, but, still, I don't expect him to engage in a conversation with me.
But I am a human being, and I feel like I deserve to be treated as such. My sister must have told him about me as he knew my parents were here the first time he came over while we were here, and it'd be very odd for her not to. So I can kind of excuse the first time, but the next two, no acknowledgment?
Then, out of nowhere, yesterday, my dad said to me that he has a bad feeling about this guy. Honestly, I have felt the same way, but I didn't tell either of my parents that as I thought I was overreacting and being overly concerned that he's already met the kids (she a30nnounced the divorce 3.5 months ago). My dad isn't really the type to say something like that, so it kind of shocked me.
Am I being petty about this or am I overreacting?
