Defending and supporting crazy family members. No good deed goes unpunished when you are helping egomaniacs. Empathy is it teachable or must be born with it?

“I was going to ask if you’d gotten a sense of tact yet but you’ve just answered it for me.”

“You can’t talk. You don’t how to mind a business. Especially your own!”
How’s that?

My mother sits in the living room watching TV all day…
When I grab my wallet, and my phone, and open the front door, she says…
Are you going out somewhere?

Bugs the hell out of me!

“I’ve decided to adopt a new family and now I’m feeling SOOOO much better. They’re great, they’re supportive and loving, and they don’t judge me, they just love me for who I am. I didn’t think people like that existed but they’re GREAT!”

Or just tell them, “Nothing’s new but ya know what, I have nothing to complain about. Life is good.”
