To me, this raises serious questions. Your wife should not ignore your feelings. Is that ok with you? do you want it to be different?

I think on some level she is starting to see the things they say and do to me, but apparently, their behavior is acceptable, as far as she is concerned.
This is something that will not go away. Family resentments are toxic and can ruin a marriage. Have you considered couples counseling?
