Is it normal that i've cut my family out of my life?

I come from a very dysfunctional family.My two sisters have always been jealous of me because everyone says I'm so pretty. They are below average in looks and resented me since childhood .I always wanted to have a close relationship with them but I am tired of their hateful remarks about me and their obvious hatred.My brothers are true Southern rednecks and I disagree with their predijuced view of people and they resent me.I have cut them all off after trying for years to have a civil relationship .My parents are both deceased so I no longer feel I have to do it for them!!! I'm tired of being hurt by these people.

    Good decision. You have transcended anything positive that a relationship with you family can offer. You're life will be better without them. Don't look back.

    Can't pick your family. Seems reasonable to avoid them if they're just a bunch of dicks.

    • I stared hanging out with one of my cousins and my younger sister called he and tried to get her not to be friends with me! But my cousin stood up for me and my sister got mad and hung up on her.That is the kinda asses I had to deal with.The funny thing is I don't miss them at all and feel like I don't really even know them anymore.Yay!!!

  • Thx....I needed that encouragement.I can't waste my life waiting for people to change. And if they appeared to change I wouldn't trust them. I really do still love them all but know I will never have a normal relationship with them.

  • Hi , I hope you and your sister can work it out.My sisters try to draw me back in and act nice for a while then boom right back to their old ways. But like even the bible says " who can stand before envy" ?They always made me feel like an outsider because I wasn't in the ugly club.So no love was ever lost.......

    Sometimes I wonder if my sister and I will end up like that... I hope not, but I do wonder.

      It happens, and when it does you just have to move on.
