I dont know why I have posted this question but I am furious and need to vent! I met my partner 2 years ago, and his parent hit the roof when they found out about me as I have 2 children, they told him he is wasting his life with someone like me and refered to me as a scumbag etc, this went on for a good few months until the relationship carried on and they realised we wasnt going to split up. They used to arrange dinner parties and invite my fella and not me, which wasquite hurtful. After 11 months they decided they were ready to meet me minus my children.....I went along with this for my partners sake and was polite etc, after approx 6 months they decided it was time to meet my children. The children were polite and respectable in there home, I couldnt have asked for better behaviour from them. We have been invited to other things and we have attended, but I find it frustrating when my little boy is sitting there fed up and the adults are all fighting for my partners nephews attention, it just really grates on me.

A month ago his sister got married and I was invited to the wedding without the children, I went BUT only for my partners sake, I really didnt want to go, but made a good effort to mingle and chat to people I didnt know, and everyone said how much they liked me to my fella. When it was time for the bride and groom to have pics taken, there was a family pic, which included the bride (his sister) n groom, her parents (my fellas mum n dad), the other sister and her husband, also my fella, minus me in the pic.....I was standing there like a lemon while people were looking at me like, why isnt she in the pic, infact I wasnt asked to be in any of the photos, that really was my last straw and since that I have gone with what I want and do not want anythin to do with his family ever again, they have made me an outcast for long enough and I cant tolerate it anymore, I wont do it to myself or my kids.
