Some of y'all have heard my "Daniel's brother got married 2/5 years ago and I freaked out and became psycho LIW from heck" story. Basically, we had been together 5 years, they had been together 2. They got engaged, got married. I FREAKED. His famliy started treating me differently b/c "she was family". And I, of course, am not. His grandparents don't get me christmas gifts, they get them for her. His stepmom knits sweaters for all her daughters - 3 daughters and daughter-in-law - not me. Etc. Daniel and I have been together since we were 16 (23 and 24 now) and his parents 1/2 raised me. But I don't count b/c I am not "family".
I keep trying to get past it. They got married b/c she was pregnant and I couldn't handle being around them for months. now I have adjusted some...SOME...but there are still little things. Daniel and I are "Miss Kimberly and Uncle Daniel", etc. Plus the girl, daniels sisinlaw is just a rude little...whatever. She is constantly making comments designed to make me feel bad. ("we though about having kaylynne call you aunt, but you're not family so we decided against it") So that doesn't help me get past it. But I've been trying.
Well, tonight Ifound out they are pregnant again. NO - I don't want a baby now. I am in law school, I am going to grad school next, I have things to do before kids. But it still cements her further into their family. Which to me makes me feel like it pushes me further out. She will have provided two grandkids by the time I am even married to him. I should be happy for them. But instead I am all upset and part of me...the meanest, most bitter, most catty part of all hopes that baby #2 just makes them miserable. I hate that I feel this way. But I can't help it.
ARRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!
Going nuts over here...
BTW - this is basically just a random vent. I needed to talk this out and my friends are mainly his sisters, and they don't tend to want to listen to me complain about their other brother, lol.
