Need advice ( its long!!!)
My cousin has yet to say congrats to me about being pregnant. We have not been talking because she has been having problems and ultimately her children live with my aunt and uncle. She had a Myspace page that was just soo wrong. Her father (my uncle) found it online. He and my mother are very into looking things up on the computer. My mother even looks up stuff on myspace. She will tell me that she fould people I grew. HAHAHA Well she thinks that I am the one who told my uncle. When I would have loved to be the one who did I didnt. She completely has shut my whole family out. I just dont understand how you could not be excited about a new life coming into this world. I only have 2 cousins and everyone is soo excited but her. I wrote her a letter saying its just sooo sad that she didnt say congrats. And she wrote back FINE CONGRATS!!... How do you say that about a baby. Ugh it gets me soo upset. What do you think I should do??

Re: Need advice ( its long!!!)
you've already extended yourself to her. for now i say just leave her be. let her think and/or do what she wants. she's gonna do so regardless. don't force any good feelings from someone for the sake of you having a baby. i mean it's all great. and i mean it. having a baby is like a sign for new and wonderful things.. in our eyes. but your cousin's not feeling at her best in her own skin. i know it s u x that she's causing so much friction in the family. but until she comes around, just wish her well and move on.

great advice....you have no control over what other people do or say or how they act. She is not excited about your baby? That is her problem, not yours

I agree. You do not need to put all your energy into anything right now that is not reciprocal or satisfying. And who knows, maybe it will change once your little one is here.

agreed with the others. As frustrating and hurtful this can be, i wouldnt bother with her. She knows now, and if she has any interest she will make it known.

Agreed. As much as it may hurt, let her be for now. It's her loss. Maybe she'll come around when she sees everyone else's excitement.
