Many people have one or maybe even more members in their family that are a little psycho or psychotic. If not in the general family maybe through in laws, In any event they exist. They are out there and unwilling you have to play a part in this drama that they bring into your family.
Please do not think I am talking of just men here as I am not. In my situation this is a female. I have dealt with her mental state for many of years, and through no end will it stop now or maybe ever. To keep my sanity I share this with you and many others. In hope that innocence people can watch for the signs before allowing one into your family.

Nothing more then that, we grew closer from it in fact, the trust, friendship it all came together. It was quickly ruined once he meant his current wife today.

I changed our phone number many of times but with out delay she would find it and call and call through the night to the next day. causing trouble, spreading lies, assuming that I can my brother in law was involved, that my husband knew about it and allowed it.

A year or so went by and I came home from the store,there on my porch standing there was my brother in law. He said he left her for good, couldn't deal and handle with her psycho ways.
