Well, Mom and I had a fight. It involves my sister who I don’t want to be around because she constantly lies (her son got a medical degree so she now thinks she is a doctor—🙄). For several years Partner and I visited on a different day. Was cool. Now, for some reason, Mom decided there was no friction.
I’m doing my best by offering to bring supper, etc. I just want to be able to talk to my parents (sister makes sure it’s all about her—or something that excludes Partner, “Remember when…”) UGH!
So, of course, I’ve been obsessing over it all day.
I’m not mad at Mom, my sister lives in the same town and my sister is manipulative as fuck—for example she told my parent there were no Indian restaurants in the town then there are several… in fact we visited with food we bought in town! My sister REGULARLY gaslights but I avoid bring in it up.
Sorry, I just have to vent. There is no solution here. I have attempted to keep communication open with Mom. I’m not angry with her, just saddened.
Holy Shit!!!
Your niece sounds like she would get along with my youngest sister (she is actually crazy—as in, “I stopped taking my meds because things were too calm” crazy—no joke.)
And she has a gun. Unregistered of course. Because Texas.
