I just don't deal with them at all. If they don't say anything, I sure as heck don't. I just get him and his stuff and leave. Same when I drop him off... He was hoping to get his disability to come through so he can afford to leave them behind in the cow manure they belong and get back on with his life. I just thank God that he didn't turn out like the rest of them... And I'm sure my aunt feels the same way. Heck, I wouldn't even eat his mother's cooking the night I stayed there before the con in Charlotte I gave him a ride to. We went meandering through Monroe and the edge of Charlotte that Thursday afternoon after cashing his check... the bank in Monroe=bunch of jackasses. They wouldn't do the cash check thru my account, even with BOTH of us standing there in front of them! He just wanted to get away for a few hours that day.... even though he was gonna be away from there Friday, Saturday and most of Sunday.... And I got down there to find out that they had a 'major bitch-fit' about me staying there.... wondering where he was gonna "sleep" and all (he's the insomniac and usually stays up all night... he ended up wandering around town at 2AM....). They had a bitch-fit when I brought him up for Star Wars.... :confused:

My hat's off to you, then. This is exactly the thing I know longer put up with. I have my own life with it's travails and won't be part of someone else's troubles anymore. I ran into an ex-gf last year who found out my wife and I are separated. She made no bones about the fact she wanted to try again (after 17 years of not speaking to each other). We talked on the phone a few times (it was nice to catch up) but as soon as she started in on how miserable her life was and how awful her family was to her and the drama with ex-husbands(!), I politely but firmly told her I couldn't help her with these issues and didn't want the burden of having to listen to her.

Ahhh... liberating true-neutral!

I think most of it started with being sympathetic towards him when I first met him at out con back in March.... and started talking with him then.... I didn't start really talking to him via IM until a couple of weeks later, checking to see what progress he'd had on the two characters I'd commissioned pics of... And it went from there... Even to the point of trying to get him to leave the place... to go somewhere they couldn't bother him anymore nor stress him out... They're the ones dragging him down, not even helping him with his fight with the VA for his disability money. He is a nice guy, despite all the mess around him.
 

Mostly people like her deserve to be alone... if all they can do is "bitch and moan" all the time.... :\ I'm glad he doesn't do that... I have the guy who doesn't like mexicans who does that alot of the time.... Drives me crazt. Alot. As if I don't have enough to deal with on my own... :confused: He even grumbled to Richard during the SW movie, especially the romantic scenes... Makes me just want to end all contact with him at times, when he's into his bouts of depression and going as far as to insult my gender and slam God for all his probs. And I've heard of NOONE that I know of, Richard included, who would agree with any of that tripe. Hence why I didn't include him into coming up for the 4th like I did for Richard.

Very wise, indeed.
 

I took it as

1) Insulting my gender
2) Insulting my Religion
3) Letting his depression get in the way...

And didn't want it to ruin my weekend. Work already did that, IMO. Not to mention friends and family's weekend as well.... They sure didn't need the negativity around them. I already had one friend who didn't care for the fact that Richard "dominated" the conversations on Sunday... But then Richard is a very sociable guy, he loves to talk to people. And he doesn't get to go out and do that very often. Usually at cons or events like the cookouts... When he got better from the heat, he talked alot with my sister's bf and a friend of her's husband.

I don't tolerate this, either. It's about to cause some severe rifts between me and some friends, some of whom I've been friends with for 20 years or more.

As I get older, I am less and less social. I feel completely out of place at work functions, church functions, and even get togethers with my friends (and my gaming group is made up of entirely of friends I've known for many, many years).

I've found I'm less and less tolerant of it as well... Even to the point of actually telling him off on occasion rather than letting it go like I used to.

I'm ALOT more social than I was years ago. I've had former classmates comment that "she can talk?!" and be shocked... we only game with friends. Hence why they haven't let Richard in, none know him well and haven't gamed with him, even though he said to me he gamed with one of my DMs (I'm guessing at a con...) at least once. There's some I won't talk to, but there's others I talk alot with... depends on the person and how they act around me, it seems... ;)
