1. My step-mother is not a fan of me. Because I exist. My father does and says whatever she wants. That includes pretending I don’t exist for 99.2% of the year.
2. My mom and MIL are both better cooks.
3. It is very superficial, faked and very forced.
4. It is exhausting to be that fake and superficial for days on end. Even harder during a holiday when one is normally forced to stay inside.
5. I am not a fan of pretending I am a different person for them, like I did when I was a kid.
6. Mostly though? Because of this.
