DEAR ANNIE: I’m a 45-year-old woman, and my boyfriend is 36. His family loves me, except for his dad. I don’t know what I have done for him to dislike me. I should say that at one point, in the past, he used to like me.
Whenever I would see his father, I would say hi and ask how he was doing, but he would just ignore me and give me a “How dare you speak to me?” look. I’m now to the point where I just don’t want to be around him. Last time my boyfriend went to his dad’s for a gathering, he invited me but I turned him down. I explained that I know I am not welcome there by his father. Why would I put myself in that uncomfortable situation? But I did tell him to go and have fun.
But the understanding that he is acting rude or mean toward you will hopefully help you gain some perspective and not take it so personally. It might also be worth having a direct conversation with him yourself and just acknowledge his loss and ask him if there is anything you can do to become friends again.DEAR ANNIE: Please accept my expertise here, from a 35-year career as a children’s clinical counselor and school counselor.
