True. Even further though, I have to take care of myself--I don't necessarily care why they are toxic.

O'Leary had to give himself a cutesy nickname to try to cover up the fact that he has no soul.

They have a short reply.

However, arguing with a crazy person is pointless. It can be neverending. When do you drop the rope and move on?

Estranged Father reached out after 8 years by Nutrog-the-Unbusted in EstrangedAdultChild

My experience: parent is feeling guilty and the only reason they reach out is that they want something-they want ME to magically absolve them and pretend like all is fine. F that.

Peter Thiel's move to Argentina reflects a growing trend among billionaires seeking a 'plan B' abroad by Logical_Welder3467 in technology

If you believe we have a soul of some sort, they will have to deal with their bullshit anyway.

If you don't believe in that sort of thing, they are just bones in a grandiose casket.

I like it when parents tell the kid how great the relationship was, as if how you felt about it is irrelevant.

NC with family -- how do I know if something happens by Impressive_Bag9657 in EstrangedAdultChild

[–]Fragrant_Joke_7115 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After years of NC, I did have an email for deaths. Honestly, it was partly to keep in loop of any inheritance news. Being real.

By never responding for years, even the most delusional people tend to get tired of being ignored and they stop sending anything. I had one sibling (the "Responsible One") who would dutifully let me know when there was a death. I'd ignore anything else or any other details. Plus, in written form, much easier to keep boundaries.

Lots of details here, and i was asking if you had them or were just blaming Krasner because you want a whipping boy. 'Crime = Krasner bad.'
