Raliced - It sounds as if you've done a great job in this area. It's hard for me because I do feel like the family slighted me (as no one told me about the OM, I think they enabled her to leave by trying to "help"). However, I do know that they care. I know they all care in some way. I still get handshakes and hugs. My X-Nieces love me. I was always the fun uncle who would get on the floor and play.
But I think you took the high road. I can do that. I can bridge the gap and formulate a relationship based around me without her. I used to see and hang out with them more than any friends. It will never be that way again.
Thank you for such good advice and sharing your experience!
