Hiya Lorlee! I so empathize with you. There are some people in my family with whom I have the same problem! First they don't get it! Second, they don't want to get it! Doesn't matter how much litterature I give them or how many questions I answer they don't want to get it. I had to come to the realization that they just didn't want to or were just incapable of it which ends up with the same result. Me not being able to be myself around them and me feeling judged by them. I think you are very brave to let them come visit you. I do not let anybody like that come into my home. The last place I want to fake being somebody else is in my home. You are tougher then I am lol.
But I agree with you, eventually it gets where you don't want these people in your life anymore. The people who love you no matter what are the ones we want in our lives, the people who just get us.
I wish I had some fantastic advice to give you on how to get through this but I don't. But what I can say, is you are not alone in this, feel free to vent with us whenever and hang in there, this too shall pass!
