I'm living back in the same state as my extended family (aunts, uncles, cousins, grandparents) after living 7+ hours from them for 10 years now. I'm not use to having them around or them being a part of my life. When I lived at home I only talked to them on the phone when they'd call my parents house. Then when I went off to college I never felt like calling to chat with any of them. I'd call my grandparents every now and then but never aunts or uncles just to chat. My fiance and i have decided on a destination wedding and I just got a call/guilt trip from my aunt because i'm the first one to get married on my dads side and they supposedly can't be there. For some reason, my aunt feels like she gets to be the boss of the family. Her and her husband never had kids and I feel like she expects us (cousins and I) to be her stand-ins. I have absolutely no desire to call and chat with her or change my life's plans to make her happy. She was talking about how they feel i've left the family. Am I weird or are most people like this? Does extended family usually expect so much involvement/communication?
