Let me see if I can try this again 😅

A large chunk of my family lives in another state. Last year I went for my Grams 75th birthday and I was staying at my sister's.

She used to be proudly bisexual, and so I wanted to share that I was poly and that I had a non-sexual partner and it made my sister uncomfortable. She asked me to avoid talking about sex stuff so I apologized for making her uncomfortable and I dropped the subject.

Now, a year later, she is still uncomfortable with me and feels that we shouldn't stay together when I come to visit.

She apparently told my Gram about it and when I tried to talk about why my sister said to me on my first night seeing her I was basically told that "it isn't normal for people to talk about their sex lives with their family" and being poly isn't normal either so I shouldn't expect anyone in the family not to feel uncomfortable by my "lifestyle choices".

I also spent the week practically begging my family to use my youngest sister's pronouns and not only did they basically refuse, I was asked why the name wasn't enough, told that she didn't even interact with the family so it barely mattered anyway, and then used me as an example of a transition they could get behind.

It's fucking pride month people. Wth?

I've been there for 8 days and I feel crushed. We've got this big family trip coming up and unless I somehow have a magical bonding experience with my sisters, I don't think I will go back.

I've got one more plane flight till I see my wife and our "hinge" but homesickness is reaching critical levels...

Happy Pride month... 😭🤢

Edit to add - we're a triad btw, so I'm not sure that hinge applies to our girlfriend

Also not sure why my sorrow at losing my sisters/family due to being poly is being downvoted??
