Wedding Woes

drama as a mrs.

does anyone get the "wow you get married and  are too busy to call " crap.
i am adjusting to being a mrs, plus going back to work.   i have a relative whom i was very close to many years ago.  however, her feelings toward somethings have pushed us apart some.   i make effort to keep in contact and be respectful, but life being busy i dont always get time to make a call and check in.  i dont really get them from this person like i did.

well i spoke to this person a month ago..they called.  and i get the Oooo you are so busy now.. where have you been.. oohh it must to so hard crap.  i just go along with it because i get upset and makes the "pushing apart" feeling worse.  when i do call, i feeel like im bothering this person.   so i call today after that last call and i get the "ooo you are now back at work..it must be such a hard life"  i respond the same and now im upset.  does anyone get crap like this?  this person is the only person i get it from. i want to say something so bad but dont kow what. i have in the past and it doesnt get me anywhere.  but this is why i dont want to call in the first place

    Why do you want to maintain a friendship with this person? She sounds like a jerk.

    Let the first round of comments roll off your back. 

    But if you do your part to maintain the friendship and if she continues to hassle you about not getting enough attention let her know that you would like to be friends without anyone keeping score of who called who.

    This is weird. Why is your aunt so needy? I'd just continue to ignore her comments, maybe she thinks she's just teasing you.

    Is your aunt married? if not "joke" that she's jealous, if she is "joke" that you haven't gotten to the point where you've got all the time in the world to harrass family members

    This will effectively end her prodding and your relationship
