I was supposed to be meeting up with my sister this weekend but she wanted to meet up tonight instead as she said she felt a bit down after being ill all week - so I said OK. She was down the pub. On her own. She does not have a drinking problem, although I think she probably drinks too much.
Our history is that often in the past we would have fallings out. I always got the blame because I was a drunk - which is a fair point, but I knew it wasn't just me causing it as I don't have that problem with anyone else.
So I went and met her (I have no probs with pubs) - I kind of knew it might be a bad idea as when I got there she kept on going on about how beautiful I looked (er ok I haven't seen her since March but I just brushed my hair and came straight out).
Then she proceeded to yo-yo between telling me that she loved me more than our own parents and cuddling me and then the next minute shouting at me and then denying she had shouted. I had to walk out twice. The first time I relented and went back but the second time no way. She had brought up all this weird stuff about when we were children and how I should remember how good she was to me, like some kind of martyr, and then she went on about how pretty she thought she was. Then she told me I was selfish for never wanting to spend xmas with the family (I volunteer at a homeless project over xmas!)
Frigging hell, it was totally nuts - but I got so angry at being shouted at that I had to leave. I was really patient, but it was too much in the end as she wasn't even making sense and then got angry when I said I didn't understand what she meant. She was soooo wasted. I know I never got like that - at least not outside of my own front door.
Sorry I just really needed to let that out. Thank GOD I am on antabuse - that is just the sort of thing that would tip me right over.
Anyway the rest of the weekend should be better - have lots of other lovely things planned - just hope I can sleep tonight after all that weirdness/abuse.
Thanks for letting me rant! I needed that.
