Brother's can be mean...

Oct 24, 2008 13:03


Ok, so I used to have problems with my brother when I was little.  He pretty much treated me like shit, or lower than that.  Now, years later, we've finally been able to get past that.  It was even awkward giving him a hug for a while, but finally I can without feeling scared that he's going to push me away or something.  I talk to him on the phone like we're friends and we get along great now.  And then he pulls this shit on facebook.  He left a comment on our cousin Mike's photo, I left a comment after it, and he practically blew up at me about it.  It made me cry I was so upset.  It was hard not to put in my comment something like, "if you don't like it, you can either go fuck yourself, or write it in an email if you want no one else to respond to it."  Grrrr.....I thought we were past this......ugh.

what's this new business on your right forearm? Seems recent but maybe i'm just on drugs. Ya gotta keep me updated, cuz. Btw, go to pandora.com and type in flogging molly. pandora is great. they play tons of similar artists to the one you type in. they got lotsa good stuff by bands i hadn't listened to much, like the pogues and whatwhat. I've also rediscovered enya on there, haha.

Ha ha... Yeah, that's new Ben, I made him show me the new stuff when he was here for Geoff's wedding. I use Pandora too, and it's pretty sweet! They even have some lesser known bands on there that I like. And it's free. Woot.

Hey Tammy, you know what would be funny? If I asked you. That would be hilarious. But since I didn't, I don't need you to answer the questions I ask someone else, especially since they already answered me, and especially on their picture which causes me to respond to YOUR comment on THEIR pic in order for my response to be relevant. I'm sorry if i sound caustic, but I'm just asking you to let me have my own conversations with my own friends without you trying to answer for someone.

Well I'm not sorry for sharing my experience of seeing his tattoos and trying to interact with my brother and cousin. The reason it's a comment on a photo instead of an email, is so other people can see it, and to facilitate people interacting with each other. I will end my comment here because at this time I anything else I can fathom saying will just create more contention.
