[quote=Anonymous]I have a family member who I have been very close with and not close at all over the years. We have contact at least once a month just through family events. This person is controlling and ruthless in getting what they want and controlling benign situations. As a result, I really pulled back. I know this person wants to repair the damage, which was over a somewhat small issue, but still proved they were untrustworthy and mean spirited. I haven’t really seen any effort in terms of action of changing their behavior. I think they will always be that person trying to control everyone else and say how things are done. I think they are just ruthless to get what they want and feel like they are in charge. I’m torn if I should continue to keep distance even if it means sacrificing some quality time with family or if I should try to make amends as best as I can and make an effort to trust this person since I do have such frequent contact.
