Annoyed
I’m about to have a meltdown. My bff stopped talking to me the day after Christmas because she’s mad I have issues with my husbands family and I always complain about them to her. I’ve been trying to have a better relationship with his family because of my kids and he gets stressed out and it causes a huge strain on our marriage. She told me I’m fake because I made an effort to be civil. As long as they don’t give me a reason to start drama I won’t. All I wanted was for them to treat my kids like family. And they have. So I have no issues. His other sister is pregnant And were both due on the same day. Everyone has been treating her like she’s about to be the worlds best mom. She has no job. Lives off her mom. Lives with her mom and doesn’t pay for her own stuff. Her mom bought the baby everything. And it’s all brand new high end stuff. I’m annoyed because she made a huge deal when I was pregnant with my first about how I shouldn’t sell any of the clothes she bought for him at a garage sale. Like I never thought of doing that. How dare she even suggest it. Anyway I haven’t said a thing but his mom just posted a pic of the baby’s room with all
The clothes and stuff she bought him. Two car seats. One for her car one for his sister. And they are $400 car seats. The brand name clothes. And all my son got from her was used clothes. And this baby my third got an outfit from him that’s a preemie size he most likely won’t be able to use. Then she planned this big fancy baby shower. Went out of her way to make it a nice. When I was pregnant with my son her first grandchild she made a huge deal of planning a shower never did but kept saying she was working on it. So I never got one. Now my bestie (ex) is going out of her way to like my mil and sil posts knowing how it will get to me. I’m so upset and hurt and I have no one to talk to about any of this. I’m not trying to start anything with his family but my pregnancy hormones are making everything seem bigger than they are. I know it sounds childish but it’s not freaking fair. His sister gets all our family to say what a great mom she’s going to be yet she has no job. Has never been able to hold a job. Lives with her mom her mol pays her car her insurance her phone. Her food. And all her baby stuff. And yet she’s going to be a great mom because she can look cute in outfits but can’t even support herself or her baby. Yet this is my third pregnancy. I’ve had a job with each pregnancy. Worked my ass off with my husband to be able to provide for our family. I don’t have the luxury to be able to afford brand new stuff but I know that’s not what makes a good parent. Being able to provide for and take care of my kids is. Sacrificing things that I want for things they need. Putting them first before me is what makes me a good parent. I just needed to vent. I have no one to talk to and am so alone and so depressed. I even wrote a dark post on my wall the other day which is unusual for me to see if anyone would care. Not one person responded or asked me if I was ok. It made me feel so much worse like made it obvious no one cares about me. And now I’m balling my eyes out.
