Screw it all

[tuxedo_elf]

I just had a... oh, I don't know. Can't really call it a row... confronation maybe... with my father-in-law. He is so fucking rude. In a few weeks my parents are going away so the dog is coming here. He wants to make sure I clear up after her. Fine, no problem. But there are WAYS to ask people things. You do NOT say, 'either you clean up or I'll leave the door open so she can get out.' Wanker. I get shit like this all the time from him. He does nothing but complain and critisise and I'm fucking sick of it. This was in front of guests too. I just walked out and I'm not going back in there this evening. Screw socialising. If he can't be nice I'm not sitting in the same room and I don't care how bloody childish he thinks I am.

Sorry for the language.

Some people just do not get it, do they? Let's get him a clue-stick.

*hugs* I can relate, darling. I really can. Mine is...oh, I don't know...a challenge, to say the least.

Everything has two sides.

Side b:

You're screwing his son.

Imagine how he feels.

*hugs* I think you did exactly the right thing, walking out instead of continuing...at least YOU know you refrained from saying something you might regret, even though HE couldn't.

Hang in there! *hugs* I'm sure things will get better soon! I'm sure of it!

And no, I don't think it was childish to walk out either, sometimes, you have to choose to disengage, and refuse to give them a reward for being an asshole.

Simply remind him that you get to chose where to send him for his care when he's too old to make these decisions on his own. :0) That always shuts my mother up.
