I am sorry your family is so ghastly to you. My in-laws have made me feel like that. My votes for Ghali never went through, I was completely bored by La Noia and fell asleep after they announced the 5. I only woke up when it was all over.

My votes for Loredana Bertè and Ghali went through during the first part. I tried to vote again during the top five voting, but to no avail...

As for my family... What's really painful is that they waited for my sister and my father to die before they eventually revealed their true feelings (of despise...) to me.

They deliberately failed to turn up at the service for the first anniversary of my Dad's passing, a couple of them presenting lame excuses, the others not even those. When I tried to understand why, they felt attacked, and basically told me nobody can stand me because I've always been an ill-mannered spoiled brat... Which, in all honesty, I am NOT. I've always loved them, and I'm an introvert, but I've always done my best to show them that I did love them all... Being told off like that was really uncalled for, moreover they showed no respect towards my Dad, who was always affectionate towards them all. I don't understand.
