Sounds like your sister needs to DTI! (Dump That Idiot)

I've been telling her that for 15 years. She stays mostly for financial convenience but I think it's always in the back of her mind that maybe he'll change. I said "the only way he's going to change is if he gets worse." Some part of me feels sorry for him because he did have a lousy upbringing. His mother is the epitome of stupid, which he seems to have inherited, and his father was a drunken, irresponsible moron (do we see a pattern here?) who was killed in a car accident because he was pissed out of his mind. He used to beat the kids up and gave them no guidance in life whatsoever. And no, they were not Witnesses.

He can't help what kind of crappy childhood he had, as none of us can, but the fact that he's not willing to do ANYTHING to help himself is what bugs me the most. He won't go for therapy (even though his benefits would pay for it), he won't do anything to try and change his drinking habits, he's got a bum ankle, does not look after his health whatsoever, smokes like a chimney and refuses to talk to his doctor about any of it. He has a half-decent paying job (thanks to me) but he has no interest in doing anything with his paycheque, beyond getting a case of beer and partying. Personally, I'd rather pitch a tent in the park than live with such insanity on a daily basis.

My youngest daughter in law..............she knows it all. Very irritating to those of us who really do know it all.

I am getting used to her but it has taken a long time..................she has something to say about everything, and knows more (thinks she does) than everyone else. She is one of those people who "jabber on endlessly about a subject of interest to no one but herself". That's a quote from an article on Aspberger's syndrome, a form of autism. Yes, she has that. She also has a very high IQ, which makes her think she knows everything. I've tried to explain to her what that means, but she just keeps on talking.

That'squite a shame, but you've done your part. When this idiot drags your sister to ruin, or does something terrible to her, she'll need to recognize that she made the conscious choice to hang around this wastrel. I doubt she will be able to be honest with herself in that way, but....man is that a sad situation.

There is a park about a half a block away from me. It is a rather large park and either you or your sister are welcome to it.

BA you said

You started it.
You tell me yours, I'll tell you mine!

My step son, he is almost 19 with a mentality and maturity level of a 13 year old and never has to held accountable for anything, it reminds me of the scripture at Prov 29:21 where one spoiling there servant or child will have to raise them forever.

OK now it is your turn BA

found-my-way

I have 2 brother in laws, that are pompous arrogant pharisee pricks. (both hold positions of authority in their respective congregations)

Im just glad I dont have to deal with them anymore.

My ex-wife has a way of getting under my skin like no other. I mean, it's like she was born with the ability.

Abandoned

My ex girlfriend knew every button I had. We were only together for six months but she was a fast learner and applied herself well.

The guy at work who harassed me is a master manipulator. I finally won the day so that we are not supposed to ever work together so what did he do? He'd come up with all this stuff he had to do after I'd arrive and punch in. He was supposed to leave when I came on. I just kept complaining though, and now we never have shifts that butt against each other.

Oldest son. Nicest person in the world to everyone but me (and to a lesser degree my husband). He only shows his true self to us, and we have the temerity to respond to his ideas and thoughts with some of our own. We are not 'supportive' because we agree with the law that going 95 miles an hour down a town street (main street, NOT freeway) is about 70 miles an hour too fast. Call me crazy. . .he does. Thinks that 'laws' are for stupid people who let others control them. . .now, this tweaks MY nerves, cause it isnt the fact. My reality is that I live in the town he drives like a maniac in. So I find myself agreeing that speed limits are a good thing. This is but one example. aaaarrrrgh.
