To my extended family,
Words cannot describe you, but I'm going to try. Most of you are very rude and selfish. You can't try to deny it. I know sometimes I can be, too, but most of the time, you all are awful. How could you possibly be that nasty to someone in your family? Oh wait you have. Well before my rant begins I need to start at the beginning.
We use to have a fabulous relationship. We were always includes in everything from event to just dinners. Now we are alone.. This all started with a simple assumptions that someone thoughy they knew what was right to do and what wasnt right to do when it comes to tradition. Literally all these conflicts started because of a thin piece of paper. Then a couple weeks later you hit us with another bomb. These simple things caused a ripple effect that broke my husband and my own heart. Whom would of thought that something so simply would alter our lives completely.
Then lets move forward to the next topic.. Facebook- who here in there right mind will read a post and simply think its about them? Trust me we all have, but not when its in a quote and has a authors name next to it. one manipulative psychotic girl ruined a strong bond we once had. Then the lies started and it was world war 1 and the only answer was to remove them entirely. so we did.
All these different issues have broken our hearts. We have stayed strong as a family unit to prove to our kids nothing keeps us down but its hard. Its hard when you live close to your family and never see them. Or when you have grandchildren that want loving but we have to beg the grandparents to come over, but I'm sure everyone else thinks its us keeping them away.
This continues to break my heart daily. We miss all the family functions and last but not least who tells a family member your always welcome here with the kids but your wife is not? Like my husband really would do that. Its literally heartbreaking the way people are and its literally ridiculous how to people can ruin it all. What happened to people making there own opinions and people standing up for those whom are right. This day and age everyone seems to just be followers! Come on family be a leader!
Out of all of us, there are few of you that we actually like and consider our family, regardless of the fact that you already are. You all are selfless, nurturing and the kind of people we like to talk to every day or every other day. Out of everyone, you few are the ones we'd like to go back and visit. The kind of people we don't mind running errands for/with, going to see things that interest you, or watching your child because that's what family does for each other. We are grateful for you few. The rest of you, however, it really doesn't bother us if we never see you all again. Will always wondered what it would be like to be close to our extended family once we got older. Or what it would be like to actually have a loving and accepting family. The questions will always be.... Would we stay in touch with our cousins? Would we drive to spend time with our aunts and uncles? Would we actually want something to do with them? It's all just unanswered questions and will always be that way. You all have taught us that family is just a word about people you enjoy to mistreat and abuse. For that, I hope karma comes around much sooner.
