feeling left out on facebook, why do my brother and sister ignore me when I don't ignore them? - ####### - 06-12-2014 09:36 PM

my brother and sister and I are all adults over 30 with our own lives, we all live in different places.
They are younger than me, & are quite close and will often comment/like or post things on each other facebook walls. When I post things I get ignored and they never comment, or occasionally my sister will like it and nothing else.


They have kids and I don't, they are super busy, they work. my sister's youngest is 4.
yes its natural they will have things in common, but the posts are all about kids, its other things also., they have similar taste in music and a few other things.

I know its stupid, its FB! but most people, if all ages, communicate via some sort of socail media/email etc
I feel so left out, its like I don't exist at all. has anyone else felt like this?

I occasionally comment or like their posts so its not about me not doing it.


we don't see each other or talk much,(so FB is important) my sister will never text or call me, its me doing it, they call each other at times though)

nasty comments not needed thankyou.
facebook can cause so much hurt, don't you think?

what should I do?
posts are not all about kids I meant..

FOMO

Siblings bond stronger with the siblings who have more similar interests or are closer in age. Someone always gets left out.
