[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes, DH was and is still the favorite. He's very successful, and his brother is a complete loser. No job or car kind of loser. Maybe $100 to his name. [/quote]

He's probably a "loser" ( :roll: ) because his parents turned him into a total headcase by comparing him constantly with his brother. He never got the opportunity to shine and develop his own personality. I'm sure he has zero self-esteem.[/quote]

Pretty sure everyone understood that to be the case without your eye rolling and explanation.

I am sure the PP appreciates your clarification of her post though.[/quote]

Actually the original poster[b] seems to lack even a shred of compassion[/b] for the "complete loser" brother, so the explanation was very likely needed.[/quote]

That was in no way stated or even implied. You might want to not project or make assumptions when dealing in emotionless text

Nice try, but the language you choose to describe a person absolutely has implied meaning.  You could have said your DH has a brother who struggles greatly, or something neutral like that.  You chose the phrase "total loser."[/quote]
Completely agree. Are PPs favorite children and unable to accept the consequences on their siblings?[/quote]
