If she were a step-monster, I'd tell you to do nothing--that you'd been manipulated. There are things I do for say, my in-laws, that I am not moved to do (more because of the things, than the in-laws, with whom I'm close).
Sometimes I feel like learning about their displeasure (like say over not attending one of the umpteen Xmas parties) is a little manipulative, and I'm tempted not to, but then I remember they're not manipulative people, so really, I'm just hearing about it (usually from someone else, not them) when they're disappointed. And I remember I do love them, and I love my husband who adores them, and they love my children who return the feeling.
