Ever get the feeling that the people closest to you just donβt get it? Last year, losing my girlfriend nearly shattered me. I finally started dating again, and my new girlfriend has been my rock. But at a family BBQ, my cousin-in-law decided to make disgusting jokes about my late girlfriend. I snapped. One punch later, his nose is bleeding, and suddenly Iβm the villain in my own family. Now everyone expects me to apologize, but no one defended me or her memory. My girlfriend says I did the right thing, but the guilt and confusion are eating me alive. How do you rebuild trust when the people you love just donβt understand your pain? Would you keep the peace or stand your ground? Just needed to vent. Thanks for listening, friend. ππ€·ββοΈ #TrustIssues #FamilyDrama #Boundaries #RomanticRelationships
