Terrible fight with my sister

I think we may never speak again.

I had been talking with her on the phone again. I asked about her daughter’s divorce and she told me she wasn’t going to talk about it.

I said something off-hand about how her (meaning my niece) husband had been through a lot, and my sister exploded at me.

She said I hate women and always take the man’s side. That I did it to her when she got divorced. I told her I just call it like I see it. She ran that poor man crazy. She started screaming at me that he had a mental illness and was “abusive” to her. When I said she was exaggerating like she always does, she said I was just as hateful as Daddy, that Daddy hated her.

At that point, I lost it. I’ve had it with her maligning our parents. I said she was right, that Daddy did hate her. He told me so. (This isn’t true, but she tried Daddy’s patience a lot and he didn’t care much for her.)

I said that maybe if she hadn’t been such a troublemaker, he would’ve liked her more. She went off about that molestation story. I said that Daddy said she made that up. She was having sex at 12 and probably seduced him. She called me a faggot. I told her Daddy said she was a whore who’d sleep with a buck you-know-what.

And then she hung up on me. I had to take four Xanax and have a gimlet to calm my nerves. I won’t be calling her back.

OP - Same scenario in my family. You're better off without them. Cut off contact without being rude or revengeful. Just don't call her back or reply to any of her messages. Let the relationship die out. Move on without her. In the coming years you can still be distraught and arguing over the same issue or you could be free of her. There is no other option. Because you can't change her. That's the best advice I can give you.

BTW, FWIW, the weekend (Friday morning to late Sunday) is not the time to start these types of threads. Or for that matter post supportive replies like mine. So I am leaving the thread now before the "devoid of emotion" juveniles pounce and attack. Best of luck.

She wasn’t really molested. She said a creepy neighbor of ours (he was in his 80s) touched her breast. She knew to stay away from over there. I think someone had a talk with him, but that wasn’t good enough for my sister. She wanted him drawn and quartered.

He was a senile old man who barely knew he was in this world.

My sister has one daughter, who is nearly 40. The daughter has two girls. The older one is 14 or 15, the younger one is 5 or 6. It’s hard to keep up with the ages.

My niece revealed a couple of years ago that the older daughter had started her period and so she went out and bought her a tampon. I voiced a concern that maybe her future husband wouldn’t appreciate having a new bride who’d been using tampons since she was 12 or 13. Also, I think maybe it encourages promiscuity.

I've never gotten a feeling that the family was southern. But, New England,New Jersey, or something like that comes to my mind. Anyway, southern children--especially the well off ones, calls the patriarch of the family daddy waaay into adulthood. I've heard 50 year old men call their fathers daddy or call him daddy when they are talking about him. It's fairly common.

I phoned my niece’s estranged husband yesterday evening. He didn’t seem to know who I was at first, which I found a little strange. I reminded him that he had been to my house for Xmas, and he said “Oh, right. The fancy uncle.” I bristled a bit, but didn’t say anything.

I told him I was very sorry to hear of the developments with my niece, but I understood that she was probably very difficult to live with. He let his guard down at this point, and said “Yeah, you don’t have the best relationship with her either, do you?”

We talked for about 20 minutes. Their marriage hadn’t been good for a number of years. My niece had become verbally abusive toward him, so he’d been sleeping in his office for the past two years. She’s been treating him like nothing more than a meal ticket ever since. Even the girls had begun being disrespectful to him.

He met a young woman at work several months ago and they began an affair. He finally decided it was time to move out and file for divorce. She is acting like he blindsided her with all this, and her mother has been telling the girls that he’s a deadbeat.

So I told him the story of my sister and her marriage, and how she drove her husband into a mental ward, and then to suicide. He knew niece’s father had died, but none of the backstory. Big surprise.

Oh, and he told me he didn’t think their younger daughter was really his child. He’s got a good lawyer by the sound of it, so I don’t think they’ll take him to the cleaners.

I ended with a general “we should meet for a drink sometime” and then got off the phone. He’s a lovely man. I wish I was related to him instead of those other harpies.

It was extremely vulgar and threatening, telling me she knew I’d talked to her husband and that I’d better stay out of her business or I’ll regret it.
