family members you forgive...

[SobaViolence]

do you forgive your family members for things that you wouldn't normally forgive another person?

i was at dinner with my mom and brother and i noticed my brother talks shit and it started to get on my nerves, but i sat there and participated in the discussion, even after repeated times he was wrong (we were talking about both sides of our family).

do you find yourself looking the other way because they are family?

I was almost uninvited to my family christmas celebrations multiple times this week

good times. good times.

i have less patience with my family than i do with others most of the time.

most my family members are well behaved, the only one that pushes my buttons is my brother...he's quite the drinker with a filthy mouth and a republican to boot

My brother could pretty much commit murder, and I'd stick up for him. I dunno why I do that shit. It bugs me.

^ same. little stupid things they do can set me off, but im still nice kinda. and they could do really fucked up shit, but i would still stand up for him. and AINT nobody talkin shit about my brother, cause thas MY job. bitches.

Yeah, I talk shit about my brother when he pisses me off, but if anyone else joins in or adds on, I turn around and stick up for him. I wouldn't do that for non-family members, probably.

[ggirlballa]

my brother is cool so i don't talk shit about him unless he does something that bothers me *cough* (i've talked about this before) then i'll talk shit about him cuz every brother & sister do that right?



it depends on what the family member did & how close i am with them but i'll most likely forgive anybody it might take me more time to forgive some people than others.

I'm an only child. I suppose I forgive my mother, or allow her to say things to me that I would probably drop a friend for. but she's my mother. she grew me in her belly, and she's had a rough life. I recognize her codependancy due to various traumas and mistakes she's made and understand why she is the way she is.

my aunt's pretty nutty, but I forgive her also. her nuttiness makes for good conversation anyhow.

I forgive my best friends for things that I wouldn't let anyone else get away with. They do the same with me. I can be a bit much.

I've never felt like I have to put up with people just because we are biologically related. I am not in touch with most of my relatives and haven't been for a long time. I have a bunch of first cousins on both sides who I only met once.

Hell NO!!! If somneone talks shit, it could be the Pope or Queen Elizabeth and I would anyway "hit" him/her!!!
If my sister talks shit (thing thaT NEVER happens) I take her apart and try to make her think! If my mom does that (sometimes she acts like a clown) I start beatin' her down usin' hyronic words...
