Re: TW: IDEK secrets? lies? death? regret? everything

So... why not explain yourself? If that doesn't work and the people you're still trying to reconnect with are determined to hold a grudge for petty reasons, then you'll know they're really not worth the effort.

This would be where the stonewalling is coming in. One person denies any of it happened prior to four years ago (untrue), another hasn't replied to the message I left them over a week ago, and the current spouse is the same person who convinced the (now dead) family member to try and sue me in 2008. (It failed, but that was where the no contact was legally cemented. Fact which I have on my side.) I do have one other family member I can try and confront, but haven't found the right opportunity to yet. Likely it will be just another voicemail message, screamed into the void.

They're not the ones holding a grudge (I would be justified in being the one to do so), but they are definitely stonewalling me, when they all knew this was going on for decades. And my life was made considerably worse because of it.

Then why bother to do anything about it at all? It seems like there's no point in trying to contact them again other than to drag the situation out. Trying to get revenge or set them straight isn't only likely not going to be successful, the trying itself is only adding to the stress you're experiencing.

Time to work on letting it go and moving forward with your life, perhaps. Do something that benefits you like learning a trade or going back to school. It doesn't mean you have to forgive or forget, but it seems like it might just be healthiest to say "fuck it" and move on.
