A Friends Confrontation at a Family Gathering About Supporting Romney. It Gets UGLY!

7. I would send it only because no one supported you

which would make me feel like they all agreed with them. Hypocrites need to be shown what they are.

If you constantly hold stuff in about family over years it will add up. I am not big on confrontation and let a lot of stuff go for a bunch of years that my step mom would do or say and after my dad died she contested the will she agreed to when he was alive. I spent many years angry and bitter and it wasn't worth it. She was a mean drunk and would lie all the time about me. Having lies told about you does effect you big time!

I wish now I had confronted her at family gatherings and been real even if it meant a split in the family. Its not good to hold stuff in. I did confront her once alone when she went over the top and didn't go to my dads house for two years he came to see me. It was hard on my dad so after she said sorry "if" I did something I don't remember I went back. I hate someone using that as an excuse so it bothered me when Romney said it. I always thought she did remember.

Maybe some people can blow things off but my personality isn't like that, I am more sensitive. So it would depend on how your friend is.
