I'm not mad... I'm upset.
I'm close to tears and trying to hold it together because my friend is out doing stuff and I have not much else to turn to- least the alcohol's gone...
It's stupid to be crying over my brother, it's really stupid to be crying over my brother. But when he was picking on me and hurting me, at least I knew he knew I existed... at least he made an attempt.
So that's it. I don't get notified- I get second-hand news that my brother's moving to the other side of the states. Congrats, enjoy this job you're getting, bro...
Every time I try to talk to him when I'm within distance, he doesn't treat me well anymore, he just... shoots me down, constantly... And it hurts.
But he was here at least. And so was the girls and the wife- but now he's moving and soon, so will they- they'll come down every once in a while... but... I've become irrelevant it seems. Figures, I don't even have what it takes to garner easy attention like money. And my parents are saying how they're disappointed in his behavior towards me.
If disappointment did anything, that would be great.
My brother's an ass, this is well known- especially shown through the actions of my adopting friends into a family sense, seeing them as closer kin than him. And... I've lost one good friend over the years, who I considered my best friend and brother- and what did my fucking family-brother do? Tell me to buck up, it's not that important, why am I crying?
The fact that, that was the first of two times that I heard that after my best friend's death, really took it out on me.
But... I thought surely shit could get repaired between us....
But it's not. All it is... is divide, and resentment and anger and spite. That's all I get from him.
I just want to fix things, and every time I have tried, I get rebuffed. I get hurt.
He didn't even have the decency to come to the one time that I MIGHT HAVE DIED IN A HOSPITAL WHEN I WAS EIGHTEEN, and I didn't mind that, because that's how he is... but... now it's all kinda building up.
I just want my brother...
