I relate to this as well. I can't help but feel like people just generally don't like me. I think my dad is super happy I'm not around much anymore now that I've moved out of my parents' house. I talk about whatever everybody else is interested in, but as soon as I want to talk about what I want to talk about, it's like everyone just disengages entirely and I'm left feeling like no one gives a shit.

My sister is in vet school and I just graduated and got a degree in business management. I just got a decent insurance job back in March. My parents are constantly talking about my sister, what she does at school, what she's going to do in the future etc. I don't think my parents even know what I do for my job. They never asked. They never bring it up, unless they're asking me to take time off when she visits. They're giving her thousands of dollars to help with her loans whereas the best I got was the oh you don't have to pay us back for the $1,500 we paid for one semester. They promised to buy me a graduation present. That's not going to happen. I'm sure when sister graduates they'll probably buy her a new car. Whatever. The little sister always gets whatever she wants, and heaven forbid I say anything about it because "we are trying to be fair and you sound ungrateful".
