I am angry

December 27, 2007 · 6 comments

You ever have someone in your life that you just can’t stand but that you have to make nice with because they are part of the “family”?  And they just continue to push and push and push until you just want to scream nasty profanities at them until they cry?  For years this person has been insulting to my brother, my mother, my husband, my sister-in-law, people I know, and me.  We’ve always taken it with a grain of salt, since she is so absolutely self-absorbed and selfish and just doesn’t think, but in the past week, she has completely offended both my brother and me and we are sick of it.  This morning’s email from her put me over the edge.  I’m pissed and I responded and now I don’t care anymore.  And I’m doubly pissed because there’s nothing I can about her and now she’s gone and ruined my day.  Dammit!!

i say, fire her. i mean, i once tried to explain to my former spouse that in my family, your behavior is either decent or you\'re going to get called on it. if you don\'t play nice, you\'re out. we lean too hard on this notion that family gets a free pass. to that, i say, \"bullshit.\"

excusing bad behavior in the name of family is ludicrous. take a stand, sister.

My mom and I are kind of there with my brother too- he\'s not actively treating us poorly, but passively, which I think is just as bad! Life is too short and if you don\'t like they way they treat you, then you need to tell them. Good for you!!!
