I've written a question here once before, and am in here once more, because my family treats me like the biggest embarrassment in the world without telling me. I feel and get the "vibes" that come from them and feel that I'm invading their happy little circle. Whenever there's any kind of event, they throw a party and almost never invite me to it. They'll do something together then I find out days later what went on. One of my own children went there and didn't tell me, nor did the people he visited(my brother and sisterinlaw). After 40 some odd years of this, I'm done and want to find a new "family" who'll accept me despite my past. What should I do or where if any are any groups of people in my situation that I can connect with?

Have you tried telling them how you feel? I can understand how hurtful this must be for you. Did you ask your child why they don't invite you. Maybe you could write them all an email(not nasty though) telling them how you feel hurt. You mentioned before you have friends right? I really don't know of any particular groups besides your own religious gatherings and volunteer groups. I hope your situation improves. Hugs, Bella

Did you ever tell them about this?
Can you talk to your friends and see what they would think about your social circle?
What did your child say about visiting without telling you?
