I don't overshare. This will about things like I took 2 days to get back to them when they sent a package, etc.


So what? And? Oooooh, they gossiped about that. Shows how little they have going on in their lives.

“Jean, if you’re upset by the amount of time it takes me to acknowledge a package, please put Tim’s name on the address and not mine. He can be in charge of mail from you in the future.”

Like, just don’t put up with their shyt.

Try not to care, OP. As you say, they have nothing in common and little going on in their own lives. Consider it a gift you’re giving them! Seriously, don’t let it bother you.

+2. This sounds like pretty standard stuff with some of my family members. You just can’t let it bother you. You won’t change them and attempting to will only feed their need to gossip.
