The only one I care about. 😏

In essence, she and her husband are separated. They have an adopted daughter. She is the one person in my family that I thought wasn't messed up. I think her job and being ferociously stubborn have played a huge part.

Again, I left out some details. I may bring them up sometime, but I had to get this out.

It may be kind of long and rambling, but I hope it makes sense.

We've lived away from family for 16 years. We love them and care for them, but it's not bad living miles apart.

My younger sister, who I thought was a very determined and smart person, has been using her psychology degree to help drug addicts or whatever. She's been married for 14 years. Apparently, she and her husband have had issues. I never knew. She never told me. But what aggravates me the most is that she confided in our unmarried nephew, who has been living with a woman and raising her kids, and he has been giving her advice. I cannot tell you how much this sucks. Yes, we live states apart, but she couldn't talk to me or our older sister about it?! My brother in law is such a cool guy. I really like him. She said he'd been emotionally unavailable. I think it's a lot of nature/nurture stuff. I am leaving some major parts out, as I am so sickened by them. But the main point is her talking to and getting advice from someone who won't get married and whose own parents have had a rocky marriage. I don't like any of it.

It's nice to be here. I do lurk daily, for the most part. 😉

Hello, all! It's been a long time since I've posted, but is it OK if I vent? I have nowhere else to do it. Maybe I can get some advice or confirmation of my thoughts.

He is a based guy. He's lost a lot because of what he stands for.

I'd never thought of it in those terms. You make a lot of sense. I was raised not believing in the rapture or any of that. People worry themselves with looking for signs when we need our focus on God.

I hope you get it all straightened out before then. What a terrible and unjust situation they put you in.

I'm sorry to hear that happened to you. They all needed to be gone yesterday.

I knew a lot of "yellow dog Democrats" while growing up that had the same beliefs as my Republican family, but just weren't Republican. The Overton window has moved significantly. I'm sure many have changed their affiliation by now.

My husband said, "He's been talking two and a half hours straight without drinking water!"

He has so much information. It's crazy!
