My Family Gave Me Everything...

"MORELS taste good in omelettes..."
...Now I'm In Therapy To Get Rid Of It!

Yes, it's mine- come by any time, maybe even spread the word about it, too. It's going to be a serious effort at regular writing. Articles, mostly, opinion-pieces, commentary on life, the Universe and everything. And "Life, The Universe, And Everything"- can't have too many comments on that- good book.
I got a little note from my Mum that my brothers had been over for Easter dinner, and a certain... topic came up. The general consensus seems to be they don't want to have anything to do with it- the "fight" is between me and the Step-Monster. Oh, how nice, they're leaving me for the wolves. Well, they'll be pretty pissed when I show up with my own wolfpack in tow...
As if I needed any confirmation that my sibs are being cowards about this whole thing, they can't even be there emotionally for me during this. I mean, really, what do they expect that I'll ask of them? Money? I have that. Them to do the work of prosecuting him for me? Nope, I have that covered. I have no idea what they think is so hard about just being there for their older sister, who used to take the blame for most of our "crimes", and thus, the beatings for same. If I can take repeated whippings for you guys, I think asking for simple visible support on their end isn't too much to ask. Jeez.
The last tid-bit had me punching walls: the worm is now lying to his family, telling them that I'm the liar, and that he has done nothing.
Well, then! *rubs hands together* Someone is going to find out the that revenge of dragons can take decades- he's getting a summons in the mail. I'm pressing charges on the little fuckwit, and let's see how he, and the family he's bamboozled for years, handles THAT.
NO-ONE calls me a liar.
No-one.

he is sunk worse than the bismark
Here's hoping this will finally end it.
They'd ALL betrayed me, you see. I didn't trust ANY of them. Result? I told only people of my own age: the few friends I finally started to make during the months just before I left home at 16...
To this day, I still have a very hard time asking for help with anything. I insist on doing whatever it is by myself, never trusting anyone else to "get it right", or the way I wanted it. Very stubborn, self-sufficient to a fault. I lived for so long by myself, with no help that I didn't get from the bureaucracies (welfare, disability- I didn't have to see actual people very often, and that's how I wanted it), doing as much as I possibly could on my own, that I ended up literally living like a hermit for the better part of twenty years. Actual socializing is a relatively... recent thing with me.
Now wouldn't it be funny if you ended up going to the 'Peg while I was out there this summer? xD
Hmm, I need a nice, biiig ram, some leather strapping, spikes, a ball-gag (smeared with faeces, of course), a video camera, and an audience with cue cards telling them to laugh at the right points... Do you think rotten tomatoes being thrown at him will too over-the-top?
Seriously, though- if he can't face me, he'll face the law. I'm done with this little puke haunting my life, thank you very effing much.
I so WANT to "Go Big", and the FaceBook "outing" I pulled on the little jerk just before his birthday was part of it. I doubt he's seen it, though, unless a family-member showed it to him, since he's blocked me and now can't actually see anything I post. The other kind of "Go Big" I wanted to do was frankly too over-the-top and violent, so I scrapped that one.
And, this isn't a lawsuit- that would imply I'm suing him. I'm not. This is pressing actual charges on the the little faeces- he's going to fucking JAIL. How's THAT for "Go Big"?
I have 6 folders 3" think, a piece of paper, and prescriptions that all say i'm sick! XD
Dragon vengeance iss a sscary thing...but he dun sstepped in it. >:/ I lend you my fire, that yourss might burn even brighter.
Now I'll get the heck out of the way. An angry dragon iss sscary, but an angry dragonessss iss downright terrifying.

I'll be hunting for that book later. :3 Nice to hear from you, KaniS~
As someone who's given up on half of my family too, you definitely have my support.
You don't need them anyway, you're strong enough to beat him without their help. Unleash the dragon within!
Seriously though, if you ever need an encouraging word or a friendly chat or a shoulder to cry on, or even the occasional dirty joke to cheer you up, you know I'm here.
*bunnyhugs*
Now go kick some butt!
*hops around cheering you on again, wearing a cheerleader outfit with pompoms for some reason...*
Thanks, sweetie. You rock. 'Tis a pity you had to leave some of your family behind, too. So much hurt out there, so much abuse, and so often, from people who had themselves been abused... It takes a rare heart to be able to break that endless cycle and learn how NOT to visit that anguish upon others. I'm doing my best to be one of them, and it looks like you're working hard to be one of them, too.
Just sort of a family feud because of a breakup between my mum and dad (who weren't even my biological mum and dad), and the fact that half of my family turned out to be idiots and thieves (they stole everything out of the house after my mum died).
Apparently they thought I was a bit of a soft touch who would forgive and forget so they could keep on taking advantage of me like they'd been with my mum for all the years before she died, but the friendly forgiving part of me burned out years ago. I don't do second chances anymore.
It's a bit of a tangled mess really, but nothing that really bothers me anymore. I'm just sticking by the few good ones left in the family, the rest of them can go play in traffic, lol.
Like I said, it's nowhere near your situation, but I know what it's like to have some people in your family turn against you, from what you were saying about the people who chose to side with him.
You can't choose your family, but you can choose your friends, and I'm offering to be a friend if you need one.
*hugs* thanks for the chuckle, cuteness.
And, for the record, I absolutely LOVE honey-mustard, honey-dill, and southwest chipotle sauces! LOL
I certainly understand the sentiment, though- he really is a piece of self-serving, sociopathic filth, ain't he? Thank you, but I don't want to see you wasting your life in a jail-cell- you don't deserve it. He does. *hugs*
Take him when he least expects it.
When the rest of the family sees that I'm serious as cancer, and this man really is going to jail, then maybe they'll change their tune about disbelieving me, or telling me unhealthy nonsense like "leave it in the past and move on." They obviously don't understand that this is EXACTLY hat I've been trying to do. Nothing has so far worked, so getting the payback, the justice for only ONE of a long a list of so many acts of sexual abuse by adults against me that I haven't been able to get justice for, will hopefully be the last of this. I know I can't do anything about the other people who've raped me (one did go to jail, actually), but this one, this particular man, is the one who finally was able to totally destroy my trust in people, any people. I'm only just recently starting to trust anyone again beyond the superficial, and I blame him for making that so hard.
One's family is supposed to be a refuge, and he made certain that it was anything but, that I had no place to run to, because the monsters I was fleeing so often turned out to be my own family, in the end.
I'm done with running- have been for along time, actually.
I'll support you!
You seem really nice and it's a shame that your family don't support you in this and that you had to go through it in the first place :-\ Shit always seems to happen to the nice people!
Thank you so much for your support, too! I've had it suggested to me that the "nice" people who seem to get all the drek from life had their character built in a good direction from the adversity, and so end up as good folk. Empathy, I suppose. But, I'm not so sure that's true, since I've met plenty of folks who turned out to be serious pills because of similarly-abusive pasts. Heck, it's a novelist/movie/tv trope to have a character be "evil" because they were bullied or abused in some way...
Nah, I like to hope that I'm basically a nice person to begin with, just too effing stubborn to die or quit. LOL >^__^<
" I get partials, unfortunately, whenever I try to do that. So I end up having to do several. Nah, just copied the bits I needed: the posts and ALL of the comments in their entirety, including private notes. That way, if a court wants that stuff, they can have it. Hopefully, it won't be used against me, though. >"
There's a firefox extension called Screengrab that lets you cap what you're looking at, a selection, or the entire webpage as an image. It's quite useful!
