Complaining about nightlife when you *checks notes* choose to live in Soho is like living in South Kensington and complaining about the museums. Or moving to Hackney and grumbling about creatives. Living in Richmond and hating green space. It's all getting a bit silly, isn't it?
You are completely right! The whole family is trash and your life is better without them. Actions have consequences. Besides the sister is only reaching out because she is experiencing what is like to be with a cheater.
My sister slept with my husband while I was in the hospital grieving the loss of a pregnancy. I found out she was pregnant for him, and that was the final straw. I cut both of them off immediately, along with my parents who kept defending them.
They eventually got married and had two children, while I moved on, rebuilt my life, found love again, and now have three children of my own.
Now, years later, my sister is reaching out. She recently lost a baby, and her husband, who is also my ex, was caught cheating on her. She’s apologizing and wants us to reconnect, but I have no interest in letting them back into my life.
My family says I’m heartless and need therapy because I refuse to forgive and forget. The truth is, I have forgiven them. I just don’t want people who hurt me that deeply to have access to me again.
Am I wrong for protecting my peace?
I see Esther on such a personal level. Trying to down play her impact is insane. Trying to rewrite history is insane.
And they have proven if they can do it to one black woman they will do it to all. So having these obtuse discourses thinking you’re above this treatment is very telling.
@imavenusgirl What is scary is he isn’t even the worst one. The lady who doesn’t want to be named on the documentary, what she described was horrific!!
