CSmittyRun's Journal, 12 May 2008

Long weekend. Very stressful. We went out a lot this weekend but I saved my flex points so there was probably no damage, and I got sooo much walking done.

I need to vent though about something. Family was visiting (cousins though so cool family at least) and friends visiting (who caused drama) and in the end I said one little thing to stand up for myself and got thrown out of my brother's apartment (I am forbidden from there now). Well, then my hubby got a voice mail from my brother saying he is forbidden too until he get an apology from both of us, lol. In order to understand why this is funny you would have to know that I come from a line of manic depressives and bipolars and my brother, although an exact reincarnation of my dad, has my mom's unprecedented outbursts though he thinks he is completely rational. sigh. Well, the other problem is my bro happens to be the roommate of my hubby's best friend who has slowly been going downhill since he moved in with him. They are bringing out the worst in each other as opposed to the best when we planned the arranged rooming. A perfect match as we thought but for all the wrong reasons. Well, my husband is taking this so badly because he is slowly losing his best friend friend he has had since he was 5 because my brother is apparently like a plague. Lmao, but seriously. This is all quite terrible. See, I moved to Tampa to come to school. Then 2 years later Evan moved for me and brought his best friend with him, basically saving him from his horrible life in West Palm. Last year, my brother moved to Tampa too. And now we are being weeded out of the circle we started 10 years ago. I know it's just one fight but, it has been a long time coming and now that it's happened I am worried this is the end of a few friendships. And because I am the glue in everything I feel responsible. And my poor hubby has no friends of his own and if he looses these guys because of me he will have no one BUT me. And a 23 year old guy shouldn't only be friends with his wife. It's just not fair because he is so fun and wonderful and I am the party pooper. hmmmph. Oh, and now my mom is pissed at me because my bro is having his wisdom teeth out Tues and I was supposed to check on him. She actually said to me " I guess you can;t check on him for me now that you went and got kicked outta his house". No I am not shitting you. Oh well. Hope everyone else is having fun celebrating Everyone Hate Caroline Day. I sure am.

Okay, okay, okay-- no more negative self talk!!! I don't know the whole story, obviously, but you can't be so down on yourself!! I don't know the family or anything, but is it possible to go talk to him later, after the tempers have died down a bit, and have a discussion about what happened? As for checking on him after his teeth extraction, anyone who has that done should be glad to have someone to help him out, even if he's mad at you. Like I said, I don't know the dynamics of your family, but don't take all the blame on yourself, and don't lessen the importance of your relationship with your hubby-- sometimes it's okay to have only each other for a time-- in my experience, it has helped to strengthen our relationship (been with mine for 17 years!) Good luck and I hope you feel better.

you did your best, honey... it is not your fault if your family has mood problems... it sounds like a tough situation, though, hang in there!

I agree with Kat. I also think that if your husband's friend...really was a good friend, that he wouldn't care what was said, and continue his friendship with your husband no matter what. Especially if he's paying rent, he should be allowed to have over anyone that he wants to. Granted, if your brother is off the wall from time to time, he may feel its just easier to not rock the boat. Good luck and don't take it personally.
