Last night my aunty who is the executor of the Will of my grandma messages me to try to influence me into making my other family members hurry up with reviewing financial documents so that the will could be executed and distributed to everyone.
She tried to influence me by telling me that she was going overseas which would see the delay of the will and also was telling me how much interest I would be missing out on because everything was sitting in a trust fund.
She ends the message with "Please settle asap".
I was trying to stay out of all of the family politics but even I'm suss about the financial documents not being up to scratch but overall I've taken a neutral stance and choose not to be involved to help my stress.
For all the complaining and being the poor victim that my Aunty says she is, she's trying to also drag me into the conflict.
I really hate that.
Anyway I left a message telling her it's not up to me and that I'm not in contact with the other members of the family but I really thought about not responding or telling her not to drag me into the conflict as I've made it quite clear I didn't want the stress of it.
