gbmmbg Posted May 1, 2019 Posted May 1, 2019 Sorry i have to vent,I just can't take it anymore. I met my wife 33 years ago. Sence then i have been taking care of her brothers and sister's and her mother. God I have never seen a group of people so back stabbing and heartless. In 1992 we let her sister come live with us becouse her husband did not want her. After one year they got back together and we let the stay with us for four more years so her husband could go to school. When my wife cought her husband taking her credit card she kicked them out of the house. My wife filled for her mother to come live with us in 1995. After she showed up we had her file for my wife's sister and brother. To this day we were never repaid for the what it cost us to get them to the usa plus we sent them to collage. 4 years ago we found out they sold a beach front lot that belong to us and now we are in court to get it back. The last straw is after 23 years her last brothers visa is ready. We retired last year to the Philippines and not one of the brouthers or sisters will let him stay with them. God my wife must have been adopted because she is night and day compared to her siblings. The little I have told you of what they have done is just the tip of the iceberg. Well I'm done for now, thx for leting me vent. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forum Support Old55 Posted May 1, 2019 Forum Support Posted May 1, 2019 Sorry to read about your difficult family members taking advantage of you over the years. I have no advice or suggestions.

BrettGC Posted May 1, 2019 Posted May 1, 2019 Sorry to hear about this mate. Sounds a bit like my father's family. 12 brothers and sisters and it is messy most of the time and the rest it's just horrible. Myself and my siblings opted out years ago. My father is great, just the rest leave a lot to be desired. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeoffH Posted May 1, 2019 Posted May 1, 2019 Sorry to hear about your troubles. As the old saying says... you can choose your friends but not your family. I’ve been very lucky, most of SWMBO’s family are good people. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevewool Posted May 2, 2019 Posted May 2, 2019 Can I ask why did you let it get this way , it seems you and your wife has done lots for the family but there comes a time when you know that you are or have been used. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True, it's my fault. She warned me but it was hard for me to believe a family can be that messed up. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post graham59 Posted May 2, 2019 Popular Post Posted May 2, 2019 This evening I asked my Mrs what her family thought of me. She said they think I'm a 'kuripot'. My response ? GOOD ! I am an OAP on a small pension, after 50 years hard work... not some lazy arse family's ATM ! 3 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
