Hurt & confused
*super long post, mostly needing to spill*
So, my aunt has always been my best friend. She's about 14 years older than me, and we grew up more like sisters. We did literally everything together. I basically lived at her house every other weekend once she got married, she was the one asking me over.
2017 I got married, and she practically planned my whole wedding because my mom wouldn't help much (my mom is awesome, she's great, there's a very complicated story behind all that.)
I moved to a different state after I got married, and my aunt and her husband would say little jabs about all the work that went into the wedding after that. To the best of my knowledge during the wedding process, they WANTED to help. They kept telling me that since my mom wouldn't help, they'd do whatever I wanted because they had been in the same situation when they got married. My wedding very nice, but it was by no means extravagent. The wedding cost under $7,000, and I believe it more around $5,000. I paid for the majority it myself, They did A LOT though... anyway, at first the jabs felt teasing... but then idk.
Obviously it's been a while now, but the last few months when I'd be about to go home for a visit, I would text her to let her know I was coming into town... and she wouldn't even reply. So I'd start facebook messaging her so I could see if she was even getting my messages. She was, and she wasn't replying.
Last time I was down, I was at her house because of a family gathering and I just asked her about it. She's like I did reply to your last message. She showed me her texts and sure enough, on her phone she had replied but I never got it. But all my other messages were deleted... and now I posted on her facebook so she would see it for sure, and she ignored it. When I have seen her she acts distant to me, much different than usual like she doesn't even want to talk to me.
I just don't know what to think. I'm going home this weekend to tell my whole family I'm pregnant and she won't talk to me. I feel confused. I don't know if this is related to the wedding, or if I did something else, or if since I moved she's just decided I'm not that important anymore, to the best of my knowledge I have not done anything. I tried confronting her about it and she claimed it was just a weird thing with my phone, but I know that's not the truth because of messenger. I'm in tears, and tempted to just let her find out I'm pregnant with my facebook announcement. I don't want to be spiteful, but I am NOT the type of person to beg another person to pay attention to me so I really don't know what else to do. I had a nightmare the other night that I was finally able to get my aunt to meet up with me but when I told her she didn't even care. I'm so emotional right now because I'm also dealing with the fact that my grandpa only has a week to live (he is not related to my aunt). Idk anymore. I don't have a lot of people I feel close to. It's the worst feeling when the person you've depended on and been closest to your whole life doesn't seem to even care anymore.
Just needed to let all that out. My husband tries to be there but he's such a man and just says "dont let it get to you, dont think about it too much its probably nothing" and then tries to change the subject to make me feel better. I tried talking to my mom and she told me i was over reacting. Maybe im just overly emotional right now.
