Quote From: emmasonlymMy brother is a 69 yr old sociopathic, narcissitic, pathologic liar! And that's his good side. He had been living on the beach in cal. in a $1400.00 a month apartment. He had been there for 22 years, doing pot daily, and drinking and using cocaine when he could get it.
He started calling my husband and myself about three months ago with tales of woe that included his loss of job, being evicted from his apt. and that he had no money or credit cards left. He said that he had made the decision that he "needed" to move back to Wisconsin to find a cheap apt. and maybe some kind of work. He wanted to stay with us until he could get on his feet. He did have a 1989 lexus, and thought it would make the trip. This is the same man who was the perpetrator of my sexual abuse. I get sick to my stomach every time I had to see him(funerals,etc.).
Well, to make a long story boring, we decided to give him the benifit of the doubt. After all he was an old man now, so how much damage could he do? We were all he had.
He drove to Wi. and proceeded tp sit in my husband's recliner with the remote in hand. He never moved for two months!! He ate us out of house and home, found fault with every apt. he saw, and we didn't see any end in sight. I thought my husband was going to kill him!, and when I told him early on, that I was not going to cook for him or do his laundry, He started eating breakfast out every day. EVERY DAY!!!
Bythe 31st of Oct, 2006, 8 weeks since he arrived, we told him to leave. Then the tears came. He had nowhere to go, no money, and he couldn't take the cold weather.!! Anyway, he contacted his drug dealer in Ca. and she told him he could stay with her, and she would "help" him. HA!! Help him further down, that is.
Last we heard,he burned her out, and is now somewhere in Arizona. Thank God he is no longer in our hair
The funny thing is, I am mental health, and AODA counselor. Thank God I know better than to say I should have known better. There's something about family. You always want to give it just one more try!!! No more
