Dealing with a negative family member…or a person who just likes to put you down

You don’t his BS in your life. Build your car and post a lot here. There’s a good group of guys here and always willing to help and give advice.

I have an older brother that has always tried to control me. Not sure why other than I have always been more successful than him and managed my $$ better. I think he was jealous and treated me accordingly. He flipped out on me over my parent’s estate over a little of nothing and haven’t heard from him in over 2 years. My life is much more peaceful. He didn’t even go to my dad’s funeral-who does that??? He told my sister he was gonna get a restraining order against me because he didn’t like what I said to him! LOL. I told her I should have beat his *** when he was standing in front of me! And I am not a violent person!!

Bottom line is this: if I were you, I’d distance myself from him and enjoy your life! If he shows up at your house, tell him to leave. It’s not easy but HE is the problem, not you.
