Thanks to all for the words of support yesterday.

Ended up cooking dinner for everyone, bro had a go (so I had a go back naturally), so left mine in the fridge and went to the beach lol.

Highlight was getting dumped by a wave and doing my shoulder hitting the seabed. Nothing like a few endorphins followed by some wine on an empty beach. It was actually very calming heh.

Hottest take from the night was that I need to get vaccinated (whooping etc.) if I / p's want to see his baby due in May. Problem is I'm up to date and he was/is anti-covid / flu vax. Basically threatening the parents that if I'm not vaxxed (not them) they won't be seeing their future grandkid. Fucking wild. Making me out to be a risk to their unborn kiddo is fucked and classic acute NPD manipulation.

Anyway hopefully the cunt leaves soon.

That sounds pretty awful mate.

I just wanted to say that I'm NC with my brother, he's blocked on everything and has zero way to contact me or find me. I might get a message from a relative if he dies, but they all know the NC and understand. Sometimes you just need to look after yourself.

I'm sorry to hear that. They say blood is thicker but if they're an arsehole then that's that.
