me and my boyfriend have been together for almost five years. It’s been great, we are in a stable and healthy relationship. The only problem is his parents. My parents have accepted him into the family like he is one of their own. Invites him to everything, is very welcoming, etc. On the other hand, it’s not the same with his parents. I’m never invited to anything with them, unless it’s an entire family gathering where many people are going to be there. If it’s just the family, I am not even considered in coming. They actually were all going out to lunch today, and yet again I was not invited. They are going on vacation in August and last year when they went (and I was not invited) his mom promised that I could come this year, but now that the time has come she “never said that” and even said some pretty hurtful and untrue things about me like “she doesn’t like who he is around his siblings when I’m around.” Keep in mind these are the same siblings I have called out of work to babysit, I have hung out with them for hours when I’m over and I love them like they are my siblings, so that was pretty out of left field. I’m getting pretty tired and upset of feeling like an outsider and feeling unwanted in their home and space, especially when my family is the exact opposite. When I talk to my boyfriend about it he apologized and then drops a line like “idk what you want me to say”. He thinks I’m being over dramatic about the situation. I don’t know what to do because we have been together for so long and it’s been going so good, but I feel like by now I should be closer with them. Family means a lot to me especially because I’ve had a lot of issues with mine and the relationship is strained, but I just don’t know what Tod o.
