What should I do?

Hi everyone

I am wondering whether or not I should confront my cousin's wife.
I am godmother to their child but I now despise her. To the point that if she says hello to me at a family function I will refuse to acknowledge her and even turn my back in her face. 

I found out she then blocked me on Facebook and so I went through another account to confront her, to which she blocked that account and refused to answer me as to why she blocked me.

Now they are having a birthday party for their child, my godchild, and me and my kid are not invited but many other family members kids are who have kids the same age.

Should I confront her again? Should I find another way to contact her? What should I do?
Thank you!

    I asked a similar question about confronting someone via another facebook account. However,I'm sorry but you sound unhealthily obsessed with and jealous of this woman. Leave her alone now. Why do you hate her so much?

    She asked me how I was going to be a maid of honor in a wedding right around my due date because "Csections can take weeks to recover from if you have one".

    She also gave me a gift and I didn't have time to open it in front of her. When she asked a few weeks later if I liked it, I told her I already thanked her when she handed it to me. She asked how I could have thanked her when I didn't open it and then said if her gifts were unwelcome she wouldn't bother me with any more. 
  • OMG.  Bri123 and Jae have to be the same person. HAVE to be. 

    OP, in any slight chance this is for real...  she asks you a question that really was pretty innocent and then she asks about a gift she gave you that you DID NOT properly thank her for.  And now you despise her????  And you blatantly ignore her???

    Then you wonder why you aren''t invited to their house?  LOL.  You being the god mother of their child has nothing to do with this.  One of the things that I very strongly believe in and have said many times - if you want to have a relationship w/ a child, you HAVE to have a relationship with the parent. 

    Being an asshole to the mother is NOT going to open doors into you having a relationship with her child.  I can guarantee you that.  100% guarantee you that. 

    I hope this is mud because man... if not, you have a LOT of growing up and self reflection to do. a LOT.

    After looking at some of the other posts, I agree.

    And if so... replying to your own posts..? LOL
  • You are in the wrong here, instead of stalking her on facebook through another account you should have just asked her straight out, but privately, the next time you saw her. Why would she want to invitie someone to a family function that turns their back to her when she says hi? You won't acknowledge her but then get hurt when you don't get invited to a family function? If you want to make this right, you need to call her & apologize for your behavior and then maybe you can find out why she blocked you. I know I have a few friends Hidden because of how much stuff and the type of stuff they post.
  • yes, that would be LOL if Bri and I were the same person but since we are not and she clearly does not agree with me, that is ridiculous. But I do appreciate the advice

    I am godmother to their child but I now despise her. To the point that if she says hello to me at a family function I will refuse to acknowledge her and even turn my back in her face.   I'm sorry, what?!  I have family members that I detest, but I'm an adult, so when they say hello to me, I respond politely and make polite small talk until I can excuse myself away.  This is how respectful adults act regardless of circumstance.

    I found out she then blocked me on Facebook and so I went through another account to confront her, to which she blocked that account and refused to answer me as to why she blocked me. Are you 12 years old?  Only children have "Facebook" fights. 

    Now they are having a birthday party for their child, my godchild, and me and my kid are not invited but many other family members kids are who have kids the same age.  I wouldn't want to invite someone to my house that literally wouldn't say hello to me.  You are rude and I would refuse to invite someone into my own home who is rude and disrespectful to me.

    Should I confront her again? Should I find another way to contact her? What should I do?
    Thank you!  Leave the woman alone.  You've been rude enough for one lifetime towards her.

    On the slim chance they are not the same person...I sense a new bestie in their futures! 
  • If you really wanted to confront her, maybe you should have done it when she said hello. Seems like you missed the opportunity by turning your back on her.
