AITAH: Baby Shower & no contact family
AITAH for refusing to invite my sister to my baby shower? Because of this my mom isn’t attending either and caused a huge fight. My mom and I have been no contact ever since I suffered a spinal cord injury and she made the entire thing about herself. I repeatedly reached out to them both, but no answers. Once I was pregnant, I reached out to my sister and her response was “if you’re not talking to mom I don’t care to meet your baby”. A few weeks later my mom and sister were traveling Europe in which my mom weaponized- she reached out and said that anything could happen to them and I need to make up with my sister!!! Meanwhile I’ve been healing from a spinal cord injury and suffering an extremely high risk pregnancy, but alas! My sister texted me a simple “sorry for things I said. So glad you made up with mom!” In which I did not even make up with my mom. She dropped off some pregnant photos of her and I was cordial. So I told my mom and sister, I’m not ready to have a relationship with my sister. Well that didn’t go well. My sister attacked me again. Calling me crazy and said I hope I’m proud of the person I’ve become. That I only live to divide families….so my mom reached out again right before shower and told me if I’m not inviting my sister then she won’t be there either. I told them both to kick rocks. But nevertheless it hurts. It hurts to do the seating chart and realize my “family” won’t be there. I’m struggling because I give them too much credit even calling them family because they act nothing like it. Pregnant and spiraling!
