Yes, my older brother. I haven't spoken to him in 10 years. I do talk to his wife and children on occasion. He did some things to our family that just aren't right. It hurts, but I couldn't stand it anymore. If something terrible were to happen I would be there to help, because no matter what, we are family. But we do not actively socialize.

Hate to say it but yes I have, I don't communicate with my oldest son any longer because I don't approve of or appreciate liars, and users and he's both (or dead beat Dads, he has a child by his 1st wife and hasn't paid child support since their divorce in 1999). He lies to everyone, tells women he's single when he's married (with 2 kids, one new baby) and he uses these women for $ and then dumps them. I did not raise him to be that way and will have nothing to do with him until he changes.
I also have a limited relationship with my Mother, she tends to forget I'm a grown woman with 4 children and several grandchildren and I don't need her or anyone else to tell me how to live my life or what I should or shouldn't do or buy.
And I have one sister that I have no communication with because she too is a liar plus she uses street drugs and I don't want people like that in my life.
I'm sure it sounds like I'm very hard to get along with and judgmental, but I'm not. I just won't subject myself to certain things and this is the only way to avoid them.

Yes, my aunts husband. I blame him for her death & till today there are things which he has done & this year he did something really hectic that i actually broke down to cry & i normally do not cry easily. I see him at family functions & i will not greet him or talk to him or even have eye contact with him. As he enters the room I walk out. or i sit in one corner far away from him near a window because i hate him so much.
