[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op, are you the poster who posted recently about her BIL making fun of the fact that you're single and because of how you dress/look assumed you were a lesbian. [/quote]

Yes that's me.[/quote]

So did something new happen since your last post?[/quote]

Not as bad as that. Just general insisting on having family time, but then acting like I' being a huge jerk when I decline. As a pp mentioned I don't want to be the cause of splitting the family up, but I really can't handle being treated badly anymore. Trying to figure out away to balance everything.[/quote]

I think taking the advice of the posters on this thread and your last one would be immensely helpful. You have A LOT of resentment (probably deserved) toward your sister and parents. The BIL is not the root of the problem, he's the icing on the cake. A good therapist will help you develop the coping skills to participate in family gatherings without letting the behavior of others get to you OR be at peace with not being around them.[/quote]
