Breaking ties with toxic people....

what do you do if your siblings are ex-jw's, but no one is still talking to one another?

i used to live in chicago and i moved back to my home town just to be near my sisters.

my husband had to search high and low for his line of work in this town and loved me enough to move back when he saw how sad i was without them.

love: I am sorry if I wasn't clear, my family was never in the witnesses. I was from the age of 19. My middle sister and brother were on drugs for years,and my parents always used the jealousy to explain their treatment of me. I always thougth that I had a great relationship with my oldest sister, then I realized that if it came to hurting someone she picked ME over them to hurt. Dis-inviting my family to Thankgiving with no explanation. Not letting my daughter ride down to Florida when my Mother was dying. I realized she loves them unconditionally, she grew up with them. They are 9, 11 and 13 years older than I am. I realize this does make a difference. Even though we have never said two cross words to each other, even though my husband and I have done anything and everything for her. She can't handle the "normal" life we have, she prefers high drama and BY GOLLY they do provide. I have not spoke to my brother in about 5 years do to him trying to keep me from seeing my Mom when she flew to KC. He also cussed out my Step-dad for calling me. I had to call the police to get him to cease and desist. My sister was on major drugs and well I wrote the story on here about her conduct that estranged us. I tried to give her a second chance, when I asked her to apologize she said "I owe you no apology" so I hung up on her. When I was visiting my Mother in Florida, who was dying from Alzheimer's my sister told everyone I had a man in her house. What is so funny about this, is that my Mom didn't understand the concept of someone being on the phone anymore due to her condition. She would say that my man was there, meaning that I was on the phone to Thunder. My sister knew that my Mom did this. Just as she would say she saw a woman in the mirror when she saw herself. So I understand how lies can hurt... Toxicity is something that just can't be fixed. Just know that you can be happy and healthy apart from them.

love: I have dealt with this issue. In fact I thought you were talking about me and my life. I have just decided my siblings are just toxic and I leave them to their life and I live mine.
