SDs birthday is coming up soon. I feel this horrible pressure to celebrate it with DH and SS. In addition I feel horrible pressure to purchase a gift for her. DH said the decision to buy her a gift for her birthday should not be dependent on how she treats me because then the act of giving a gift was not genuine; rather it’s transactional.

i have an SD14. She never interacts with me.

I’m fine with it.

I’ve lived  for two years with them with my DD13. I sold my house to move in with them after our wedding.

 From the beginning SD set up problems between me and her mom. Example; She would text her dad and tell him to take me off the family calendar because it makes her mom uncomfortable.
