| Subject: Victim of manipulation for 20 years |
| My sister-in-law has mastered manipulation. Everyone who has followed suit are her siblings, the spouses, her mother and our 20 year old niece. She has pitted everyone against each other in the past then sits back and sneers. I have always felt guilty of not seeing it in the past. The only one who has noticed has been me and my husband. Now it is our turn for the family to mistreat and abuse. This family only knows about blaming others, PRIDE, and speaking ill of everyone. They do not uphold any standards of kindness, respect, sympathy, empathy and compassion. We do have my father-in-law, who has been very open to see and understand the problems. We cannot speak to my sister-in-law without her yelling profanity and being condescending. She seems to get off on others‘ unhappiness. I can only deduce that she must be unhappy herself. It has been like this for 20 years and I am tired. I have tried, when we were on good terms, to help her on the right path of goodness, but she always chose to ignore what I had to say and would be angry for not siding with her crooked line of thinking. My sister-in-law has recently gotten everyone to hurtfully and purposely exclude my daughter. I don‘t see a happy ending of a close family relationship, so what is your advice? To save our daughter from hurt, do we keep our distance? My mother-in-law blames me for this because I argued and yelled at my sister-in-law. I am angry and I am hurt. I feel like my sister-in-law has so much power, almost god like. I hate it. Please help with some advice. Thank you. |
