Do you know what I'm talking about? The relative you dread seeing at family functions? The one that seems to ruin things every time for whatever reason? The one that gets on your every last nerve? You can't believe a word that is said? It's all about them? They plot in advance to..... do whatever , usually bad, to draw attention to themselves? Volatile personality.
I have that relative! Sociopath is the best description I can use.our family will all be together during the holidays this year so I can't avoid. Is it bad to say, if I never saw this person again, I'd be totally ok with that?
Everyone walks on eggshells. When this person isn't around, we all can relax and enjoy ourselves. But oh my, it really changes the dynamic.
I'm not asking for help. Just curious: Are we the only ones who have a relative who causes so much disruption ? We were talking last night...." wonder how The holidays will be this year?"
