I think my brother and his family all suck! Here's why: 1. First of all, they never go to see my dad unless it's a "special occasion". They never call him or spend time with him. But they always go to see my brothers mom, and do everything they can for her! This is my BIGGEST peve! 2. They never have anything to do with me. They only want to spend time with my son and I think that's because my sister in law thinks she's God's gift to children. (Which brings me to #3) 3. Know it All's! If you say it's black, they say it's white. My niece is the worst one about this! She even does it to my mom. And what's bad is she doesn't know she's doing it, it's something she picked up from her parents. It's like the "yankee" way of doing things is always the best way with them. My mom has gotten to the point where she refuses to comment on my niece's facebook because she knows she will disagree with whatever my mom says! 4. My sister in law is never at home. She leaves for work early and gets home extremely late in the evening 10:30 or later usually. People are wondering if she's having an affair. So basically, they keep to themselves and whenever we try to talk to them they act like smart asses. They never contact us, and apparently so weird shit goes on in that house! There's a little more too it than this, but that's all I feel like whining/typing for now!
My family sucks too, I'm the "black sheep." They call me "brainwashed" because I tell them that going to organized church is silly and that I support Ron Paul. I say I'm the most down to earth out of all of them! They are the ones brainwashed!
So you are saying your brother is more a mommys boy to his mother in law than his mom. And bother her daughter and grandaughter put every other non direct female relative down. Your brother sounds Sooooo whipped, and by a wife thats never there, maybe cos she's running around fucking other guys The plan is simple, find your brothers nads and sew them back on
I could definitely use some wine! They just act high and mighty is all. I've tried reaching out to them and getting them to come over or go out. They never want to, they never have time for me or my dad! Which is sad because we all live within walking distance of each other!
True, but if you're a perennial "black sheep", then your family will very likely try and change you, and disown you if they fail in their attempts to do so. I've been estranged from my family for 20 years now, due to my resistance to them trying to change me into someone I'm not. You can't change your family, but they may very well try and change you.
If it helps at all, mine sucks too. My sister is a drug addict, my mother's an alcoholic and recently got hooked on amphetamines all while they're in charge of looking after my nephew. So I move out and now I live in a house with my boyfriend, his grandmother who barely comes out of her room, and his alcoholic mother who is more selfish than anyone I've ever met in my life. You go out of your way to do something for her, and she does nothing in return but take and take. The only thing that's changed with her becoming comfortable around me is that now she freely takes my stuff without asking. Somehow it's still worth it to be with the person I love more than anything. But it's a drag not having any family members I like aside from my nephew.
