I am so sad about how my family has treated me when I am so poor that I am no longer going to text or call them anymore…they just got back from a road trip to Corpus Christi but I don’t dare ask for money…they are all wealthy and don’t understand my plight…“blessed are the poor”.

Maybe you should become a republican 
My parents looooove that We share the same political beliefs and give me dinner every night
Seriously though I am very sorry to hear this
Don’t do anything brass! You may need them! But if you think it’s for the best…

I’ve been trying to disappear too. Not just from family, but from everyone.

Blessed are the poor in spirit, my dear @jukebox, which I believe you qualify for as well. I know, I’m poor too, even with a husband, and it’s exhausting! (Poor in spirit) I have a sister who is wealthy. She was visiting recently and she offered me money. I could definitely use it, but I declined. I told her that I love her and wanted to spend time with her, not get money. She’s kind and caring and I want a relationship with her. I believe money would just get in the way, so it’s not a part of our relationship. I will never ask her for money.
I’m not trying to be “high and mighty” sharing this. It’s just the way I choose to function. But, I know how difficult it is.

So sorry @jukebox
My brother and his wife are wealthy as well.
Haven’t talked to them for a couple of Months now.
In his and his wife’s case money has turned them into cold and selfish snobs.

i used to hate my parents for a while.because be4 i have schizophrenia they r not really nice to me.they put all their savings in the stock market instead buy me some cloth or shoes.
but what i can do.they just stupid.that’s all
you complain too much lol.
what if you just kept in contact with them instead of asking for money from them. that could be better.
dont wanna burn a bridge so to speak.
I’m slowly withdrawing from my bio family too. My sil had her baby shower yesterday but I didn’t go. I feel like a rotten person, but we’re not close. I’m sending or dropping off an expensive gift instead. I can’t wait to hear the crap from other family members for this one.
I have not seen family in 42 years other than a couple of unsuccessful attempts, Depends how one thinks I suppose, for me there is no point they just attack every time so why bother chasing people who think you owe them the right to control your life.
I’m about ready to do the same. granted I still live with my mom. I just don’t feel the same way about anything the way I used to. at all.
