Reality Hurts!

His family pushes my buttons as much as he does! They are all in their own world of discontent, and it yanks my chain when they put it on me! I have every right to take care of myself, and MORE of a duty to that then anything else. I'm sorry they are not at a point where they can see that. That knowledge aside, it still pushes my buttons. I got confirmation of my fears today about one of them. The sober brother is, IMHO, regretting his own decisions to help my hubby, and as a result is starting to be open about his disagreement/misunderstanding of my decisions to set my own boundaries with hubby. I had been suspecting an undercurrent of "Why isn't he living with his WIFE?" Today I got my confirmation of that. Sober brother called to "ask me my opinion" on the possibility of hubby working for his company. I answered honestly, that I thought anything out of the car dealership business would be good for him since it is where he did much of his drugs. But I think he really called to try and find out why I am not letting him live with me because "after all he is your husband!" *sigh* To top it off, the divorced brother (who kicked him out yet is still letting him sneak in late and sleep there), who I co-signed a car loan with back in November, missed his April 20th payment and they called me today. I left him a message, asking if he needs financial help today, and have not heard back yet. Patience, patience.................

I am mad at me for getting so angry at what I already knew! This family is such a mess, and they are not my family. Reality hurts.
