My boyfriend of 3 years has a really drama full family. He has 2 kids in their 20s. Hes barely been around them from them being 8 or 9. His ex wife was 5 hours away with them and stopped it.
He had a good relationship with his mum but his dad was a come and go dad. After his mum died his dad had 2 more marriages before he died last year. His final wife is wealthy and my bfs kids ended up moving to the grandads area and his wealthy wife bought houses to rent to them. My bf has been pushed out and so much bitching has gone on in that family.
His youngest dd always turns up at his door when the family drama gets too much. She walked back into his life in march and theyve got a relationship going again. Ive met her twice. But now the wife of his dead dad is giving her a hard time over her dad and speaking to him again. Shes always ringing her dad with these dramas and then hes ranting at me. But the minute i speak up and say anything about breaking the cycle and telling his dd he doesnt want to hear about it he snaps at me because shes his child.
Tonight shes rang saying shes being told not to speak to him again and i said its the same crap everyday and she needs to make a choice and defend it. He then got mad at me. He said why are we having this conversation.
Im the one having to deal with his low moods and hes all sunshine on the phone to his daughter. I almost feel he is thinking im jealous of his relationship with her. But its honestly beyond pathetic and its like they are never enjoying life. The two times ive met her they just sit discussing their mental health and how hard it is for them and they drone on about the last. Giggle at one or two memories of her as a kid. She brought weed over on fathers day and they were getting stoned whilst i sat in the other room.
I just need a rant.
