Same
I do better on my own
17 years with the same people gets annoying
I just need to get out and live a little
I know man
I feel ya
I still love the fam but
Quarantine has definitely sped up the need to get out
Also, one thing I can’t stand are people who hate their family
Yeah
I know that people have abusive house holds, and guess what I did too.
Yeah
But I also despise parents who abuse small children
Like
How low of a human being do you have to be
I love my parents. My siblings, however, I wouldn't walk across the street to spit on if they were ablaze.
Damn
I'd take a nuke for mine
When I was six, my older brother built a bonfire with his friends in the yard, and when I went to see it, he covered my legs with lighter fluid and pushed me in.
People who hate their parents for no reason or cos they raise their voice once or some bs I hate but if someone has been severely abused by a parent then I'd understand if they cut them out of their life especially if they have a lot of trauma.
My sister even went as far to try to kill me but she is still my sister. I showed love towards her regardless and now she is doing far better and our relationship is far far better.
That's just it, RT. I'd forgive if there was any sign of remorse, or change.
About forty years later, I still look like Freddy Krueger from the knees down, and he won't even talk to me.
Why
Yes?
She was very very mentally unstable
Oh
And on that note, I have to go.
Bye!
sometimes people don't want to change and in those cases then I think its up to the person in the situation to decide what they should do with that relationship
byee
That's one thing I struggled with in my faith. We're taught to forgive, but we're not taught to forgive those who are unrepentant. Scriptures clearly teach this for those who pay attention. Everyone thinks forgiveness is about us, so we can "heal". That's nothing more than lying to ourselves and others to make ourselves feel better. That's selfish.
Cya @DishonoredRonin
Forgiveness is about restoration.
Yeah
I have family members that I want nothing to do with. I've tried several times, but they have no regard for others or the consequences of their choices. They refuse to learn AND change. Blood or not, I can't keep dealing with that.
That I understand @Deleted User. You at least have to give them a chance to change.
Yes, but if they don't, there does come a time to walk away.
Yes
