PsyCookie agony auntDid you want an advise or just someone to agree with you?

Remember that there's more wisdom in acting selfless than in thinking only about yourself.

I totally understand what you are talking about. Have the same thing here. Whenever he talks about his niece, the expression, the tone, everything, just makes me want to leave him. It's like she definitely is the most important thing in his life. And I don't think it's natural for a girl loves her uncle much more than her own father.

I have my family too. It's just I would never talk about my nephew like that.

PsyCookie agony auntWell, have you tried to tell him this? Most people cannot read minds and some people are clueless when some people try to imply something (I find myself guilty here).

Why don't you try to make a nice conversation with him and tell him how you feel. I even think crying would be a nice touch, but not drama. Talk to him calmly and nicely and tell him how you feel. I'm pretty sure that if he's a nice guy, he'll understand and act upon it.

Now, the only thing that alarmed me is that you harm yourself. Well, here's one thing I'll tell you: STOP. Every time I hear some kid says that they harm themselves I always think they want attention. Now this may not be your case, but it's still a really bad thing to do. I don't think your family, friends, and even your boyfriend would not like it that you harm yourself and if they do, they don't care about you. Please stop this because it's an unattractive trait from a sweet girl like you.

So the thing left is to talk to him. Tell him everything, and don't be afraind or feel embarrased. This is affecting you and he needs to know and he'll never will if you don't tell him.

Go ahead and do it. And good luck and I hope your guy understands you!

its natural for any uncle to talk about how much he loves his niece. you shouldn't be jealous of that. it's his family. he is just proud of her. maybe you should just sit him down and tell him how the material things dont mean as much to you as the physical things and that if he wants to continue a relationship with you then he needs to start showing you some love in other ways.
