Re: When you love your relatives, but you don't LIKE your relatives...

[(Anonymous)]

I'm civil. I did not say that I wouldn't care if they died. I'd miss them because I love them (see title of thread) but at the same time I'd also feel a guilty sense of relief about not having to tolerate their behavior. I'd miss what good there is about them, but I wouldn't miss the bad stuff. That makes sense, surely?

It's not really normal human interaction to trap people in one-sided conversations that are truly just one person monologuing about themselves for an hour or more without showing an ounce of interest in anyone else. Constantly giving advice when nobody has asked you for advice or giving advice about things you don't know anything about is also not normal human interaction. I mean seriously, I've never cornered anyone at a party and given them a twenty minute lecture on how to break into a job market for a job/field I've never been in because that's nuts. I've also never sat there with a regular smoking habit, eating fistfuls of chips and being 60 lbs. overweight while telling someone else they should exercise more because that's really hypocritical. You would not do these things either, I hope.

Of course cutting them off seems extreme, as I already indicated in my original comment. But since I can't stop this behavior, it can only be managed so far, and I'm not always able to remove myself from these situations (you know, in order to be civil), I don't have many options. If I go to family gatherings, the lectures and hypocritical advice-giving will definitely happen. If I don't go, they won't. You do the math.
