Nobody here can really give you specific advice based on the few facts. You’re part of this family, you know them better than all of us. If you feel off about it, there’s a reason for it. You’ve come here to ask the question. So I think you’re well within your rights to reduce contact with that side of the family. I would only suggest you quietly ghost rather than making a big stink.

Ya I get what you mean, it’s just keeping me up at 2:30 am so I thought I may as well try to get a third party opinion if possible to see if I’m overthinking, I agree with the ghosting

Most of us don’t have the luxury of choosing our families. We can just try to do the best with the hand we’re dealt. I’m sorry for your loss.
Maybe delete the picture, put the phone down, and try to think of 20 great things about your grandmother.

Thank you, you’re right, I need to put my phone away and distract myself for a bit.

Nah fuk that.
I stopped talking to the rest of my family after my grandmother died.
My father and brother died first actually.
And nobody was there for me.
Similar snubs at me for not visiting in hospital when I’m working to not starve/be homeless.
😰😓🤬😖
I had to work day of her funeral actually. Lol

Older I get the more I know I need to accept that blood don’t mean shit, people are going to be terrible regardless of your relation

Well, if you want a good third party opinion, you should probably write up a few paragraphs about your aunt, include multiple key experiences that can show a couple things about her character, show the photo she took, show the reactions to the photo by others, talk about how the other people in that photo felt why they wanted to take the photo, and probably a couple more personal questions about you and others of your family.
