I thought I'd let you know that on Saturday is the annual Family Reunion of my family. And unfortunately, despite not wanting to go, I'm forced to go anyway because I'm told so and forced to go anyway. Ugh, every time I go there, it's the same thing: All the people I don't even know or care about look at me and they completely ignore me, wasting my time while I have to wait and listen to all those boring and uninteresting conversations. My parents think it'll be good to be in there, but honestly, it isn't! Ugh! And I can't even think of an excuse to not go (and I did try honestly telling them, but they refuse). Why do I have to be dragged there when I don't want to anyway?

As someone who would not easily cotton up to being into roped anything, I do relate and sympathize. Afraid I have no quick answer here.

Apparantly some people are blind to the fact that not everyone is going to agree on what's best.
Is there much you could share in conversations such as occupation, hobbies etc.
I know it's a moot point, but knowing you would be trapped in such a boring atmosphere, must at least give you a glimpse of improvising so you could feel a little comfortable.
Boredom is much worse then what most can say about it.

If this is all unavoidable, then you or your folks will need to strategise in making this reunion more bearable for you.

Hope this can in anyway possible.
