My sister, Becky. She just barges around doing whatever she wants with 0 regard for anyone else.

^^^^ And she is a Christian, so she thinks.

Met a rich kid in the navy:
His parents made him join for access to his trust or whatever.

A few weeks out to sea and some hard days actually working….and he was looking for a way out. Even inquired about pretending to be gay…so he could get kicked out.

He never came back to the ship shortly after. He could’ve:
1. Been transferred to an office job on base.
2. Could’ve been processed out.

Hillary Clinton

My daughters old boyfriend. In his 30’s and running through life on drugs, getting into repeated scrapes with the law, and being supported 100% by mommy and daddy.

AND, just as a humorous point, his name was Kevin.

@Dutchess_III Is Becky the sister who didn’t invite you and Rick to her daughter’s wedding, because you weren’t sufficiently wealthy, classy, or whatever her criteria?

No. That was Lexy @Love_my_doggie. And it wasn’t really up to her. Her youngest got married in 2020 (oy vey!l) and I was invited. It was up to the girls. Her youngest is the sweetest person ever
Beck has no kids, thank God.

My older sister as she felt being married to a somewhat weathly man was not good enough for her, in that she had to have my late mother sign an agreement that ONLY she was to inherit all of mother’s estate.

Sibling riviary anyone?
Caused years of chaos and hurt within our family to the point of NO communication between siblings.
Some relatives get VERY greedy when money is involved.

@inspired 2write Holy crap, I can`t believe that you`re own sister would do that. And why would you`re late mother agree to that?

Oh hell. It happens all the time @vimead1.

I am in the process of composing a goodbye text to Becky. Have to wait until my dad’s wife’s estate is closed in 2023 to send it. She can throw a monkey wrench into to process like only a crazy person can.
Anybody want to see it?

Sure.

Well. I found out my texts actually have a character limit!

“Becky….I am an atheist. There are lot of reasons for the decision I made 15 years ago.
One of them was watching some Christians plow through their lives, leaving hurt, angry, confused, frightened and frustrated people in their wake, and refusing to take any responsibility for it because God is on their side so they MUST be doing the right thing.

Your behavior in Florida was abominable, starting in the ER with you telling Kathy, who had just suffered a seizure, that you could feel Dad in the room. In her confusion she thought you were telling her Dad was actually, physically there. How cruel.

And then bringing the dog into her house!
Kathy loves dogs but she didn’t want them in her house! She was afraid they’d scratch the floor, not to mention dog hair all over the place.
And THEN you thought it would be great idea to “gently” break the news about the dog to Kathy while she was in the hospital. Yeah. She needed that stress.

You sanctimonously said said you would help out any family member who needed financial help. How about you start with paying back the money you borrowed from me? Money I really couldn’t afford to lend because Rick lost his job in outside sales due to Covid.
Not to mention the $800 I was out in airfare because you selfishly decided to change everyone’s carefully thought out out schedules, without even discussing it with anyone.

Your behavior was so bad Kathy’s doctor’s office kicked you out!

And have you forgotten when (in 1995) you started calling my children, when I was at work and scaring the shit out of them with all your wisdom about alcoholism? You literally had Corrie in tears, crying every night, believing that she would be an alcholic when she grew up, and it was inevitable. (Good news. They aren’t.) You didn’t do that to Lex. You preyed on me because I was alone and unprotected. You targeted my children when they were alone and unprotected.

Good bye, toxic “Christian.”

@vimead1
A weak moment in her health and constant badgering got her to agree to it.
With 12 years of Gaurdianship debates amoung siblings and her insenstive care in a facility she died alone in the middle of the night starved becasue of understaffed Facility and older sister who lived a couple blocks nearby didn’t check in on her everyday.
Court battles after as well as my oldr siblings carried this on for a couple of years after her death to find answers and thus deylayed the grief process for all of us.
Nothing resloved, except staff including a Social worker on site was either fired or reprimanded.( on repeated calls to social worker on site in that hospital she did not look in on my mother as requested and later we found out that she wasn’t receiving our gifts sent to her because the hospital sent o another senior with simular surname for over three years! Thus mothr got even more depressed thinking that we didn’t care about her? It was me and my son who drove 500 miles to find out why and thats when we discovered the mixup even though room number and full first and surname were different that the other lady.

Sibling rivary has no good end when the only survivor in the family is ageing and one sibling has sole custody.
The family fractured even to the present and unforgivable behaviour periodically continues.
Only 4 siblings remain in the present and one more will soon die of old age .
