Because it feels fantastic!

You did not have to read this post. You can make a decision not to comment, not to read, etc, etc. Are you the same poster who keeps posting critical comments?

OP


That was my first post on this thread. I think you are deceiving yourself about truly feeling free.

I have gray rocked my brother and could not be happier. I reach out to his wife, but almost completely ignore him.

I'm year three of zero contact with my mother and one of my siblings.. Therapy made it easier.


Why would I do that when I already have a therapist? lol

OP


Did you share that you were in therapy in your original post OP?

No one’ would suggest therapy if you would have shared you’re already in therapy in your initial post … LOL 🙄




So those who respond don't suggest something you're already doing.. But ok.


Why would I need to share that I see a therapist?

I gray rocked my MIL in order to save my marriage and my sanity. I was tired of being fodder for her gossip and constant criticism and intrusive questions. Pretty much no-contact, given that we live in the same community. She’s not welcome in our house if I’m there! See her maybe 4x year at holiday or special occasions.


That's brave and smart. Well done! I'm glad you don't have to see her much.

The narcissist has entered the chat!

Oh, I am sure. That is probably why they call me four to six times a day. It's because they are so sick of me and elated to be "done" with me. LOL!

Their record is calling me eleven times in one day.

You yourself sound miserable to post on a board and insult someone who has put up with years of abuse. You might want to talk to someone about that and see why this post has triggered you so much.
