When is it time to divorce a family member?

I have been helping my partner manage his pa's long term care. This comprises working with his bro who controls the purse strings. The bro tries to make us feel guilty by announcing it is standard for all brothers to make a financial contribution and why aren't we. I have always pretended to have a fun time and to like him, which adds my duplicity to the picture.

The bro is preparing to limit what quantity of money he contributes for his pop's care. Once the equity is drained from the home and his pa becomes indigent, the bro will supply the resources to look after him.

My partner is at peace that inheritance isn't part of his future, but my life is thrown completely off balance and I finish up with a lot of sleepless nights.

When I resend the info again, he claims it never occurred or continues to misrepresent what I announced.

I showed the correspondence to a neutral 3rd party, and she confirmed my perceptions.

My advisor of a lot of years has suggested terminating the relationship, and my partner is also considering this. What do you think?

I met my better half 12 years back and her best pal directly afterward. We all shared a good deal of time together thru our varsity years and now into our thirties.

We reside in the same city, our families spend a fair deal of time together, and I am good friends with her hubby. My problem is I won't stop considering her.

A massive amount of psychological energy is flowing toward this other lady. Why? What is wrong with the remainder of your life that your thoughts flow there? That is where you want to look.
