What would you do if you are tired of dealing with your family?

Question

What would you do if you try your best to please your family and the only thing they seem to do is cause you pain? You don't have children from different mans, went to college and graduated with honors, and married by church and even like this your mother will not go to your graduation or wedding. Everything is your sister, sister, sister poor sister. Would you dissapear and not let any one know anything else about you or?

Answer 1

move

Answer 2

Hey you have one of those parents too! I feel sorry for you and know how you feel.
I've tried my best to please and the one brother gets the poor, poor thing too, drives me up the wall. I tried to please them but it usually was not enough (other people are so much better) Unfortunately, after twenty some years things have not changed and am truly saddened by the fact they have missed out on a lot of things, including having a relationship with their grandkids
( that was their loss).
If she phones about poor poor sis tell her you aren't interested in talking about her and if that's all she wanted she'd have to phone someone who really cares. Let them know how awful and hurt you felt on your grad/wedding without them and that you have seen the light and have moved on without them.
Live your life and move on, nobody deserves to have someone suck the life out of you, especially a parent who is suppose to be there and love you unconditionally. Wishing u the best of luck~

Answer 3

no i will stop making them proud of me. i will continue my life the way i know not the way they want. i always had problems with my mother about this i was the oldest child so i always have to be perfect like a good example for my sisters. well i was supposed to do everything right. but i gaduated the thing i want and start to ignore them. i mean i was polute and friendly but i get to look me in the mirror not some perfection. i am like this and if they dont like what they see they are gonna have to deal with it or leave. i would be fine with bouth desitions and i will respect them and love them as my family. start living for your self. forget everyone. they are big now they can handle it.

Answer 4

No one said having a family would be a picnic. There will be good times, and bad times. The important thing here is your willingness to take the bad with the good, and to put the needs of your family over your own needs.

Answer 5

Move on with your life, and don't worry about them. You can still love them from a distance. But place the responsibility of contacting each other with them. You have nothing to feel guilty about and you don't answer to any person anyway. If you believe in Him, that's who you'll answer to someday, but live with no guilt, and love from a distance. Forgive and move on.

Answer 6

My you have it bad. I thought my situation sucked. Stop trying to please. You have accomplished many things with no moral support. Keep pleasing yourself. As far as family as hard as it is keep them at arms length. I know that because I do it. Since my mom died my family has turned into a circus. I talk if they call me send cards when they send to me but other than that, I please my self. Good luck and I hope I've helped

Answer 7

Move far far away thats why I am in college and only go home on holidays and special occassions

Answer 8

I have had probs like this with my family. Any more I just stay away from them. They know how to contact me. They don't. So be it.

Life DOES suck like this at times!!!

Answer 9

Don't look for approve where there isn't any to be found.
You may have been born to them but it doesn't mean you have to put up with them.
Move on with your life, look to make YOURSELF HAPPY.

Just to let you know, if you were my daugther I would be proud of you.

Answer 10

did you try talking to her about this maybe tell her how you feel and why she is doing this too you.
