irresolute Posted December 2 Share Posted December 2 I live in the US and my sister and her family live in South America. Recently I mentioned to her that I wanted to visit her, that I miss my country so much. I mentioned January as a possible date as her daughter’s 30st birthday is that month. I asked her not to tell her about this because I wasn’t sure if I could travel. yet, and surely, one week later her daughter sends me a message with her bday’s invitation. my sister denied having told her but I know my sister. thus has brought some “resentment”? Towards her. It made me remember how I needed her when my first baby was born, more than 15 years ago, and she declined to travel in such an important moment, making excuses. I feel resentful. As I have to make the effort to buy a plane ticket (that’s double expensive than if I purchase it a few days later, for example), request days at work, arrange my children’s care while I’m not here… why am I feeling like this? I’d love to travel to South America but just not under this conditions Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MsJayne Posted December 3 Share Posted December 3 You said you'd like to visit and that you might, not that you definitely would, so if you can't get there I'm not really seeing what the issue is. Sounds like you're on good terms with your family so they should be able to understand the logistics at your end and be OK with it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
