Moving on....
It's come time to realize that the people in my life that are truly meant to be there will be, and those that are just there because they feel they "have" to be will eventually move on.
I recently came upon a page that a "family" member created, and while reading over it, I discovered they don't even acknowledge my daughter as a grandchild of their's. Now, keep in mind, this is a step-grandparent, but even so, hence within the title it states "grandparent". I've known all along that this person feels differently for my child because she's not related by blood, but even so, she's still a grandchild!! This really pisses me off!!! The fact of the matter is this: I married into this family and I accepted everyone as they are. I've never asked them to kiss my ass just so I will accept them, and I sure as hell won't kiss their ass to have them accept me. I've always been the one to step up and help out anyway I can, but each time I ask for help, it's overlooked or blatenly turned down. I've never asked more of them than they could provide, and I have always treated them with the upmost respect. That time has come to an end. I see a select few of them for what they truly are, and I'm finished with them. I will be cordial when needed and I will continue to be myself, like it or leave it. I will NOT, however, expect them to be more than the ignorant people they have shown they are. I will NOT expect anything from them actually. When they learn to treat me with respect and caring they way I have done to them many many times before, then maybe I will allow my feelings to mend for them. Until that point, which I know will NEVER occur, I'm done! I have no time nor patience for ignorance in my life, and they have been dealt a hand they brought upon themselves. I will not bring myself to their level, but I will stand up for myself and my family. I will make sure they do not subject my daughter to the bullshit they have so ignorantly portrayed over and over again. The select few are simply aquantinces in my eyes now, and I have no reason to think otherwise.
I hope they are ready for the reprocussions of being assholes because they are non-exsistant to me now!!!!
