So, because you all hate each other and won't talk, I only have an hour for each of you. Sorry." I lied and told them I was only in town for two days. Did they change ? NO. Did my time become more enjoyable ? Absolutely.
That's weird, that's how my fam has been for about 7 years, and that's the person I am, too - the only one everyone likes. Except the clusters live in different towns.
Two years ago or so, on Thanksgiving, my aunt and I got into a big emotional "fight" (she was emotional, and drinking) about why my mom won't talk to any of them - as if I could explain my mom. She was really hurt. But then when I was trying to explain anything at all, she'd be like "you talk just like your mom - why can't you speak plainly?" Basically saying I was talking down to her, when I wasn't, and also really mad about it. (She's my mom's half sister, and my mom is "the smart one"). Anyway, so she insulted me that way.
I've just gone to my parent's since, if I go anywhere. Also, my grandma doesn't like her own sister, but my mom does.
It's all totally lame. I don't deal with it, either.
