Today, my dad told my mom to only drop off my sister for Thanksgiving and not me. Guess I was wrong about him wanting to work on our relationship. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, my mother not only told me that my ex-husband will be spending Thanksgiving with her and my dad, but that I'm also no longer invited to spend the holiday with my family. FML
Today, I’m going to have two Thanksgivings. One at my parents' for the first half of the day, then the other at my house. I let my boyfriend know beforehand about it, as well as my sister. She then told my mom about my plan and next thing I know, I got a phone call from mom that turned into her yelling at me for not staying all day. FML
Today, my dad lied and said he was busy working, all because he didn't want to see me. FML
Today, I thought my mom and I could put aside our differences and open our Christmas presents. When she opened mine, she turned to my dad and said she didn't want the present, so I could give it to someone else. 'Tis the season. FML
Today, my sister and I were planning a trip to get away from things and visit some faraway friends. My dad then decided to insert himself into our plans. He got mad when we said no, and couldn't understand why we wanted to go by ourselves. FML
Today, I told my mom she made me feel unloved my whole life. She called my sister and apologized. FML
Today, I found out that my parents forgot to invite me out to eat with them. I found this out when my mom invited my sister right in front of me. FML
Today, I learned that now that my mom is dead, and my dad doesn't need my emotional support during her illness anymore, he's going to go back to insulting me every time he talks to me. FML
Today, I tried to reconcile with my estranged father after learning that all the things my mom said were lies to turn me against him. He refused and told me that he has a new daughter and that I'm not part of the picture. I know I deserve it but… FML
Today, I went over to confront my parents about how my siblings always get to visit and all I do when I’m over is work on their house or take care of grandma. My mom was very upset. Then she snuck out with my sister, leaving me to take care of grandma until she got back. FML

A dad like that isn't worth wasting time on anyway, despite how much you want to. You'd likely only be disappointed. sorry op

Maybe he wants to work on his long-distance relationship with you? Let's go with that.

Is there any chance it was whom was spending time with whom? Like your sister and him on thanksgiving therefore you spend thanksgiving with your mother? Like if he chose you instead your sister would spend time with your mother? Sorry if this doesn't make sense, it does in my head I'm horrible at wording things.

I think I understand. You mean like each one gets one kid for the holidays in shared custody?

I think I get what you mean. It could just be a misunderstanding, because shared custody is hard to understand when you go through it. It didn't sound like that, though.

Your dad is a piece of shit. You will do better without him. Stay strong.

My dad refuses to talk to my brother because last time he did it he cried. Maybe why your dad didn't invite you was something similar.
