[QUOTE="BusynMember, post: 675662, member: 1550"] Yep. I get it. My sister is now in a "cousin's club." We never knew our cousins at all so anything she says about me, well, she got there first and, as I said, can put on a great act as this nice person and cover up her soul. I have no intention of barging in on that party...I never knew them before and I don't need to know them now...but it would be interesting to see how they greeted me if I ever did decide to meet them. When my sister did confide in me, she was always criticizing my brother, our family (the one she suddenly reveres), and her own friends, making fun of their boyfriends and choices. Yet, to her face, she is all smiles and they and their boyfriends are great. Can't tell you how many "friends" she told me were crazy or, her fav word, probably borderline. If I told them what she said, they would have to believe me because there are details she told me that I could not have known without her telling me. Such as that one of her best friends boyfriend is a big loser and ugly and toothless with a poodle he takes everywhere (what kind of man carries a poodle around, she asks me). That's how she treats people she "likes" and I'm sure she has plenty to say about me to dirty the well. Fortunately, I have no interest in really finding out what she has said, although perhaps I will findn out if there is a family tragedy one day. I hope not to linger long enough to talk to people though. Of course it hurt you, Copa. It hurts me too. My sister has hurt me as much as my mother did. But most of the time I am over it now and over her. In fact, I know how much she wanted a family like the one I have...I pity her. She divorced to find the man of her dreams and hasn't found him. For all I know, she's still with her abuser. It is now six years she has dumped her husband because she never loved him (her words) and she is still alone. The older you are, I feel the harder it must be to meet somebody. Hey, I don't care if she meets Prince Charming. It's just that...it hasn't happened yet. She is very pretty too. Maybe the men she meets are onto her and not fooled like many women have been and still are. Or maybe she just disregards decent men for bad boys. I don't know. Thanks for t h e support of the vent. There is nothing I can do about it. Just sad for my dad because I know how much it hurts him. [/QUOTE]
