[QUOTE="DDD, post: 505747, member: 35"] Don't think you are alone. I think you're just unusual by actually posting it. Personalities vary alot even among easy child's. Sometimes they just don't jive. Family or not! There have been time periods when I really did not like being around my eldest difficult child...there still are. I have a sister who was just different than the rest of the family. She was not "bad" (and still isn't, lol) but as my Dad said "she just follows the beat of a different drummer". As a parent I tried to identify in advance when my difficult child was apt to get on my nerves and come up with a plan where I could keep my distance for awhile. Once I began keeping notes on our highs and lows it made it easier to intervene as there were patterns to her behavior. by the way, I found that it worked best for me to just keep my feelings to myself and make adaptations. She's now almost fifty and doesn't have a clue that she wasn't "liked". I understand...and think many do. Don't feel guilty just try to find the best way to keep a healthy distance when it gets to you. Hugs. DDD [/QUOTE]
