This is kind of feels thread, but it's relevant I think.
As incels we already don't have many people who care about us, since we mostly lack a social circle and obviously don't have girlfriends, so our families are the only ones who really care about us. I'm not writing this, because I just recently lost a family member, although my aunt did pass away 2 years ago. Yesterday I had a conversation with an older woman who basically gave me this advice.
I'm pretty much constantly in contact with my immediate family (my brother, mother and father), however if it comes to my more distant family members I have very little contact. For a long time I avoided family gatherings, because I felt uncomfortable or I felt like I wasn't good enough compared to other cousins. I try to actively force myself now to write a few of my cousins and to keep contact, since I haven't seen some in years. I also plan on visiting my grandparents next week since my grandfather has been very weak recently. It's also hard because my mother is an immigrant and for a long time we couldn't go back to her country of origin due to financial and political problems. So, I haven't seen this part of my family for a long time.
Anyway I hope this thread isn't too triggering to some here, that might have lost a close family member. In that case my condolences, but don't beat yourself up over it. I know many incels also resent their families, because they feel like their genetics are the reason they are socially or romantically isolated, but again they are often the only ones that really care about us.
