For me, people like my friends or family (especially extended family) will ever only ask me to show up to something if they need me to help move items around, clean stuff, or do some sort of manual labour or other task for them.
And even if they pay me for some things some of the time, it's still weird because I'm doing work for a family member. It shouldn't be like that. It should be more like a "I help you, you help me" kind of situation, but instead it just feels like all I'm good for is an extra set of hands that is easy to get.
I understand that I'm an awkward fucking loser, but it wouldn't hurt to at least pretend to care about me as a person outside of that shit. Even when they do talk to me, it's always the same exact questions about school or something similar. Anything I tell them goes in one ear snd out the other anyways so they end up asking the same stuff. It's not like I barely know them and have to refer to the most basic of small talk conversational topics. I'm capable of having discussions of some meaning.
But all I am is just a useless background NPC in everyone else's lives.
