I decided to take my family to the downtown market we have last night.   The weather was gorgeous and it is fun, with various booths and a farmer’s market and music and old cars to suit the tastes of my J.   Kooky didn’t love it or anything, but it was alright.   We brought a friend that she is highly attached to and was upset when she was not in our sights.

And then I saw my brother, the MIA one.   He was in his tow truck with some chick, and I am assuming it was his GF that he cheated on the wife with and ditched his family.   Who knows?   I felt so strange walking by the truck with the niece he does NOT even know exists in any way, going back to pregnancy.   I called my parents and my mom begged me to talk to him.   I brought up his ditching his daughter and trying not to pay support for her, and she suggested that I forget about that for a moment and look at his as just my brother.   I agreed and hung up, but I couldn’t do it.   I have so little respect for him, brother or no.   I want to punch him in the face, not go up and be all friendly.   Kooky doesn’t know my other brother due to his bad habits, so what kind of loss for her is it not to know her other bad uncle?   We walked back, and I was alone with Kooky while J drooled at many an old car.   I could see my brother looking at me and I just went along my way.   He never approached me and seemed to disappear further into the cab of his vehicle as if to hide.   I was hurt, I admit.   How can he not want to meet my gorgeous little lass?   But as J put it last night, if he does not care about his own daughter, why would he care about mine?   I went home as she was acting up a slight bit, and my sister called.   Our friend had also seen him and he was really making an effort to hide from them.   SIGHS

So sad.

That is sad. It is too bad that he is that way, but it is his choice. J is right.

He is ashamed of himself it sounds like. If he wasnt then he would have talked to you.. or at the very least not try to hide from everyone. I dont know what I would do without my brother.. so I have NO idea what you are going through! hugz

That’s very sad for you. I hope that you can have some type of contact in the future. The trouble is that with toxic people, you have to protect yourself. I did read about J’s surgery. I’m going to pray for you about it.

That is sad. I can understand your hurt feelings. I feel the same with my family.
