Well, you should go to show respect to your boyfriend's family, even if it's a trial and you hate it. If your boyfriend and his mate won't talk to you, perhaps you can find someone else there you can talk to?

I agree. You should go, out of respect for your boyfriend and his family. Unfortunately, relationships aren't all roses, and these are some of those burdens that come with relationships.If you're boyfriend is mature enough to handle the conversation, tell him how you feel. With any luck, he'll make the effort to make you feel included.
