Boyfriends defends his family...I'm always the villan
Quick back story....my boyfriends family were a nightmare during my first pregnancy. Any time me and him had a minor disagreement he would run to them and they would convince him I was controlling and to leave me. I never liked his family, his mum never let my partner go when he grew up and his sister is a complete narcissist.
Last year my partner had asked me to make more of an effort, I went to visit his sister with him and spent Christmas with his family. Their family have a very conditional kind of love with eachother, if you don't agree with them you're the enemy. I try to keep my distance.
Anyways, I am pregnant with our second 14 weeks in counting! Being pregnant and overly sensitive i mentioned to my partner that his family hadn't reached out to congratulate me. I suppose it sounds silly but my family reached out to my partner to congratulate him. He said that it wasn't a big deal and he wasn't going to start an argument with his family. I responded by saying I didnt even expect him to mention this thought to them....I guess I just wanted some form of recognition that it is a little cold and inconsiderate and that my feelings do matter. I wouldn't of minded if he said he didn't feel comfortable bringing it up to them...I just wanted him to agree with me for some reassurance that we are a team. Silly me.
Any thoughts, am I just making mountains out of mole hills?
