iwanttolive Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 I think i'm crazy and being absolutely ridiculous. I googled the topic and no match came out. So I must be the only person on this earth feeling like this. His baby nephew is cute and sweet. Yet I can't stand him for all the attention he gets from my bf and my bf's mom. I can't stand my bf buying lotsa stuffs for him. In my heart I'd be like "Darn, he's not even my bf's son, he's his brother's son!" I feel disgusted with myself for feeling like this. I don't want to be an evil person. How could I love a dog more than a human being. What's wrong with me??
xXMarlboro_ManXx Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 It sounds like you are jealous of all the attention that he is getting. Being an Uncle is an important time in someones life (I assume). If my sister has a child i'll probably treat him or her as one of mine own. So I think the attention should be deserved. Are you an only child or something?
Author iwanttolive Posted September 28, 2009 Author Posted September 28, 2009 Yes, I'm an only child! How did you hit the nail on the head??

Author iwanttolive Posted September 28, 2009 Author Posted September 28, 2009 I was not like this in the past though. So it could be because I went through a few bad relationships. I treated my exes' families as my own and I got disappointed and hurt when we broke up. So I think my current bf's baby nephew is very lucky to be part of his family forever and ever. I will forever be an outsider even if I marry him.

No, I'm not.. Sorry if I use the wrong expression and cause misunderstanding, am not from an English-speaking country...
xXMarlboro_ManXx Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 Since you are an only child you probably don't see the magnitude of how big being an uncle could be. Just think of your loving relationships with your aunts and uncles and how important they are to you. Thats what your BF is going through right now. Being jealous is not a weird emotion to be feeling your BF's nephew is getting a lot of attention and you don't see why. Just one thing, if you ever find yourself getting angry about the nephew just put yourself in his shoes (He doesn't know what is going on or could even comprehend your feelings toward him). So just be easy on him and treat him like your own and as long as you don't have to change his diapers or clean up after him you should have nothing but love for him.
