[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When my brother (who I always considered to be my best friend) told me he has never liked me and that he would never consider me to be a friend.  After a full day of similar statements, I found a way to get my family away from him in the remote foreign location in which we were visiting him and cut off our relationship.[/quote]

I don't understand how you two could feel so differently about your relationship. Was he on drugs or was there something mentally wrong with him?[/quote]

Yes, and yes.  This followed an overdose in which our lives were put at risk (he was driving us and had a seizure right when we got out of the car) and a conversation in which he denied using drugs. [b]But this comment was the final straw.[/b][/quote]

It was the drugs talking. Maybe reconsider giving the relationship another chance if or when he gets clean.[/quote]

You are not wrong.  But we have a 25 year history of this pattern, and at least for now, I have determined I will be healthier without it. [/quote]

Fair enough.  But blame him as a person and the unhealthy relationship, not the one-off comment he made that really isn't that awful of an insult when you consider what siblings often say to each other. I said something similar to my sister when we were teens and I'd hate it if she held it against me today.  She also threw a shoe at my head, so I say we are even.[/quote]

Yes, I'm sure some of it has to do with the fact that it was just by chance that my little daughter did not die as a result of his continued drug abuse and he refused to take responsibility for it, along with the fact that we had the day before travelled nine thousand miles to visit him.  But I digress.  Whatever my reaction was, the statement was the most insulting I have heard.[/quote]
