My two aunts went over the line the last 24 hours.. so much so that I'm seriously thinking of going against the promise I made to my mom, to stay in touch with them, and that I need a long hiatus from both of them..
At a time when they are both aware of the extreme apprehension I have.. about the situation with the law firm, and another potential big client I'm working on.. they both said to me since last night that "They don't care".
I contacted my aunt the astrologer last night, as I know she is scheduled for rotator cuff surgery in the near future. After screaming at me uncontrollably for no reason.. she told me that "All she cares about.. is who is going to give her the money to cover her expenses at this time". This, from someone.. who I have given...; a lot of money to.. over the past couple of years since I've been in NY. She didn't even ask me about the status of anything in my life, and promptly slammed the receiver in my ear.
This morning, I called my other aunt, the artist. This is a woman who has ranted on to me about.. her husband.. her roommate, her life, etc. She knows the hell I'm going through right now, waiting to see the status of this account. When I gently mentioned to her "Eileen" (The astrologer) said.. this.. The artist snapped at me. "I can only worry about my own life", and slammed the receiver on me before I even had a chance to finish.
To hear this from both of them.. at such a time when I'm so concerned about the status of my own career, a situation I don't have complete control over, completely enraged me. I get "We don't care" from both of them.. as they want, and expect, the latest emotional and financial handout from me, ongoing.
Mom, I tried. I truly give up with both of them. I've always been sensitive to the fact that both of them have difficult lives.. but.. if they truly don't care about me.. at such a crucial time.. then I honestly cant see any reason to keep dealing with them.
Even if I became the most successful insurance agent in the world, and I didn't need a penny from my dad, I would never feel that way about him, or express myself to him in that way. I'm always concerned about his health, his well being, and his life/work situation. That's what a loving, caring, family member is. The only person in my family who I don't give a damn about .. is my uncle.. the man who wished me to be on SSD for the rest of my life, and never wished me well when I passed the insurance exam. He can go straight to hell, forever,. Besides that, I have always considered myself a very caring family member.
I'm going to need to distance myself from these women. Simply put.. I cant accept behavior like this. Their attitudes are inhuman.
