As above I am sick of it. I live 500 miles away from my family and am pretty much NC because I reckon after 60 odd years of the same behaviour they are never going to change.
Everything I do, say and am is always wrong. I have my own lovely home, a meaningful job that helps lots of people, I have a lovely grown up DS.
DS is coming to live with me permanently because the cost of living is so high, we are dividing the house into two flats, he couldn't afford to have any heating on in the winter and barely ate. - this is wrong apparently, he should "man up".
Numerous other examples from people who are so self serving all they care about is money and possessions, never there when they are really needed - too busy.
My birthday and my DS's birthday were ignored this year because they disapproved of what we were doing! What we are doing is none of their damned business.
i should just ignore it but it's incessant and just never stops, emails, messages, endless.
My home is warm and loving, their's is cold and angry.
I wish they would just go and live abroad or something, I can't ignore the constant stream it really gets to me.
I haven't visited any of them in 4 years and I'm near retirement and just can't be bothered with any of this any more.
I've done better than any of the others yet it's me that gets it in the neck all of the time, throughout childhood and throughout adulthood.
Why do people do this? What can they possibly get out of it!
