So it looks like I won my pride but I lost my family.
But it was a toxic relationship anyway.
I know I contributed to the toxicity.
It hurts immensely how they are so willing to never call me again and how they refused to treat me with respect.
Is there any way for me to have a healthy relationship with them?

My honest opinion... I don’t think a healthy relationship is possible based on what you’ve shared here...
I’m starting to think healthy family relationships are few and far between.
If I could go back and redo some things in my life... many things... I would probably be less communicative and tell more polite lies and give polite excuses... and keep my distance...
Your emotional and mental health is worth far more than trying to make a toxic relationship healthy... just my straightforward opinion that I’m trying not to be so straightforward about IRL....
