Maybe it’s cuz I’m an introvert, but I realized I haven’t really talk to my aunts/uncles outside of family gatherings that I was forced to go to…

Like idk, older generation feels so weird… like they feel kinda intimidating…

    nope. they pretty much didn’t give a shit about me until they learned I was somewhat successful and had kids, then they wanted to be involved in my family.

    no birthday cards, no wedding invitations, nothing. then bam, once they all started to get old enough to start dying they wanted to reach out and be family again.

    not just that they ruined a particularly fond memory I had as a child and I never forgave them for it.

    fuck em. they’re just strangers to me by now anyway. I wish them the best in life but have no desire to include them in my life.
