also went around to the family home to deliver some toy cars for my little bro
mother hisses that he probably already has them and puts them in the cupboard
later little bro is opening the poorly wrapped cars
"its from santa"
...
he loves it but couldnt they of said "this is from your big bro"
not a single gift from the family
have to clean the house top-toe for when the extended family arrives
is asked to leave because "we dont have enough space, and dont make things weird"
best part is they dont want me there not because im a faggot, but because i have cancer
walk home in 33 degree (92) weather
not too bad right, but i have to have layers and layers of neoprene on my chest
and i have to walk 11k

Why the **** do you do it? You have cancer and they use you and throw you out? As if you don't have enough to worry about. It's understandable to love your family, but if they put you at risk like this it's probably better to hold them at an arms length while you recover. Best wishes, take care of yourself dude

me being sick is too much drama for them
my ******* tumor in my chest was too much drama that it lead to her cutting me off from all medicare thus leaving me with no treatment
too much drama that i was beaten and forced to move out
yet i keep coming back
i dont want to leave here on a sour note with my family

+29

#23 to #22 - uninstall (12/25/2015) [-]

that's what your family did to you?
they beat you and cut off medicare?
dude, forget about the sour note, get the **** out of there. meet some nicer people and build a new family, just get out of the one you're in.

#24 to #23 - evilanakie ONLINE (12/25/2015) [-]

but i still want my little bro to call me big bro

#42 to #24 - wanpanman (12/25/2015) [-]

I...understand you love your family. Thats brilliant. But i...personally wouldn't call people who've done something like that to me family. If anything happens to you your brother will know you didnt abandon him.... and im going to be brutally honest here.... If your family are that bad, they're probably going to let him think that regardless of how much youre there now.......after that happens... Sorry man.

#117 to #24 - civilizedwasteland (12/26/2015) [-]

kidnap him and raise him a warrior

#110 to #24 - jujuface (12/26/2015) [-]

Doesn't matter what he thinks at this point. He's too young by the sound of it. Do what feels right with your family. For me that would be cutting off all communication, then write a letter or have a face to face with your bro when you recover, explain all of it. Put it in your will just in case you don't.

#134 to #24 - tropenthatshtup (12/26/2015) [-]

This **** man, first off please don't be lying for attention, cu that would be super dickish.
Second, I think that was the right move, though my family always puts tags on presents so do that next time for him.
If you see her rip them off call her out on it. Explain that you want to support your brother and while you don't want tons of thanks you want your brother to know that you care for him. If she throws a fit (as these anon things tend to escalate to) ******* leave, don't put up with that ****
Also, care for your body first. I once a friend sis this too to about an equal extent tried to be as helpful as I usually was in volunteering when I had a leg injury. Not anything crazy just taking leaves or running deliveries for events.
I would stop doing things when, the pain got to a pretty uncomfortable place. I ended up extending my injury by months because of my stubborness.
When YOUR immediate health is at stake YOU come first, only exceptions are absoulte emergencies, fire, zombies, gunmen, ect.
Also cancer sucks, tumors too but cancer really sucks, don't let them make it suck worse.

Your family sound like cunts. My family are just the same, last few years I've received no Christmas or Birthday presents, despite working full time and supporting them both financially and with non stop favors/errands. While my sister, an unemployed scrounger on benefits, whose only contribution to the world is the lack of understanding on the use of contraceptives, resulting in three unwanted pregnancies, gets showered with gifts.

Grow up dude, can tell this site is full of mongs by the fact they're thumbing someone up for being a bitchy little child. Your parents raised you, they spent their life making you priority, and now you're old enough to look after yourself you still want them to shower you with gifts you can get yourself now? I don't believe you''re even helping them financially, because if you are, why would you want them wasting their money that they don't have. they buy your unemployed sister presents? Wow, it's as if she still needs support because she has no income. Stop being a cunt and be grateful.

#102 to #39 - djmaryhikineet (12/26/2015) [-]

note how he has more thumbs and your anon, the problem with the argument people are making with that he shouldn't expect it, its that it isnt the fact hes gets no presents at all but the fact the one who isn't as helpful gets a present despite not being a productive person. the mind set of these parents are that "oh they can support themselves fine and shouldn't need a gift, so lets give it to the one who isn't able to" when really they should think what even if they can support themselves it would be nice to give them something for being able to compared if they couldn't. and im not say the others shouldn't get gifts at all but if you give them positive reinforcement for something that isn't a good habit like not being able to support yourself and live off of the government. though yes this doesn't need to be applied as i myself am pretty much living off of my parents but i don't ask for much other then what they give me to live and the few games and amiibos every few months. my more productive younger brother asks for more stuff more often as hes active more then i am. i myself have alot of problems so i can see why parents would favor the least productive one but to ignore the productive one is a ****** thing to do.

#142 to #102 - goddamnwizard (12/26/2015) [-]

It's not even about buying a gift. It can just be a heartfelt card or some such. It's not the item that matters but the knowledge that you're appreciated.

heres the problem:
>expecting gifts

you shouldnt expect anything. the point of christmas is spending time with your loved ones (family, friends, gf/bf or even pets). you're prioritizing gifts over everything else which tells me that its all you care about when it comes to christmas. you seem like the shallow type thats only in it for materialistic things.

+23

#53 to #46 - anon (12/25/2015) [-]

perhaps it has more to do with the fact that said family are showering everyone else with presents--- while not even giving the guy in question so much as a christmas card.

#138 to #53 - anon (12/26/2015) [-]

Love how everyone who calls this guy out on being mardy gets thumbed down, he didn't say anything about not getting a card, and by how much of a faggot he's being i'm sure he would have done if it were true, so i'm assuming they got him a card. Thinking you deserve presents for helping someone out doesn't make you a nice person, doing it out of the goodness of your heart makes you nice, but if you go crying they didn't return the favour you're just a whiny bitch, especially with the fact that they're his PARENTS, they've done far ******* more for him than he'll ever do for them and he's being ungrateful, his parents deserve better, i'm sure his sister is grateful for all they've done for her, so they like to treat her. I mean what kind of self respecting adult even expects gifts from their parents still? it's bad enough when children complain about not getting what they want, but this guy is a ******* adult!

#67 to #53 - anon (12/25/2015) [-]

ive never understood christmas cards. why not just say "merry christmas" rather than giving a card saying the exact same thing? christmas cards are mainly to send out to people you won't be able to see on christmas. if you're there in-person, you could just say it.

#126 to #67 - anon (12/26/2015) [-]

It's more thoughtful. Shows you care other then just showing up and happen to see them so you say it. Plus Christmas cards usually have money/gift cards in them and nice notes.

-12

#47 to #46 - anon (12/25/2015) [-]

just to add on, if you're helping your family out of the goodness of your heart, you wouldn't really care if you got gifts or not. basically, you're only being nice because you expect something (gifts) in return.

One day, the Boomer generation is going to ask themselves why their children, who are now in positions of power in the government and private sector, seem hell-bent on making their twilight years a living hell while giving everything they can to their own children.

They genuinely won't understand why no one likes them.

#133 to #28 - defeats (12/26/2015) [-]

I was called a liar almost every day because I couldn't get an entry level job and given the spiel about how my parents got good work the day after leaving school. How easy it is to just go around and ask for a job.

It's actually funny hearing people talk about the boomer generation, because I didn't really know what it meant before... But my parents don't take any responsibility for anything wrong in their lives, they always pick somebody to yell at when they aren't happy about something.

They've also made no plans for their "old age" and go on about how my siblings and I will look after them, meanwhile neither of my parents had anything to do with the care of their elderly parents...

I am not the sentimental type, they will be lucky if I even speak to them after I leave.

#140 to #133 - wanpanman (12/26/2015) [-]

Its awful. My absolute ******* favorite is when you get told "You have no idea how good you have it now!". If their parents had said that to me id have got it... But the time theyve had has been fantastic. Then they ****** everything up for the generations younger than them. Most people i know use technology as an excuse as to why we have it "so good" but a smart phone doesnt beat a ******* house by the age of 22. It doesnt. Anyone who says it does is a moron or (usually) a boomer.

#43 to #28 - wanpanman (12/25/2015) [-]

I know boomer gens that quite literally are like that. Self righteous self important dicks who after tantruming like a 10 year old at an adult age will stand and visibly be "disgusted" when youre simply asking for something, or even working toward a goal. As you said, they genuinely have no idea that they are as insufferable as they are...or theyre all ******* A star actors.

My recommendation to you is to make a 5% "christmas fund" starting this january.
Every paycheck you get, put in 5% of your pay into it.

Even if you are at minimum wage,and after taxes you have 250$ per week.
5% of that every week is 12 dollars. By the end of the year, it should amount to 650$ per year. Even if you skip some days on this goal in order to cover important costs, you could still end the year with 300$ worth of savings.

300$ is enough to treat yourself pretty damn good, and that's just half of the intended goal.
Most people get Christmas presents that amount to less than this.

#83 to #66 - kibbleking (12/25/2015) [-]

It seems you put a lot of thought into this.

#94 to #83 - totallytito ONLINE (12/25/2015) [-]

Of course!
Being an adult takes away some childhood priviliges,
but it doesn't mean that there are cost-effective ways to reduce the loss.

Every problem has an easy solution if it is looked at hard enough.
Except for math.
**** math.

#121 to #66 - failtotheepicpower (12/26/2015) [-]

That's, like, a year-to-year retirement fund. good idea, but you can go even longer term for better effects

#122 to #121 - totallytito ONLINE (12/26/2015) [-]

Oh i know.
The 30% retirement fund is a genius idea and it's where I got the concept from. It's just that some people miss having neat expensive gifts, so this 5% thing would be a little more on the reasonable side

#74 - rumpledforeskin (12/25/2015) [-]

I know I'm not getting anything this year, as we are poor and feels like getting poorer every year, I feel fairly lonely. My mom isn't talking to me, and who knows where my dad is, haven't known of him in years. I find joy in things, I collect yugioh cards, hot wheels, (starting to collect) playstation 4 controllers, among other things. I think I have saved enough this year to buy the new Millennium Falcon Lego set that came out for TFA. I really want to buy it for my girlfriend and I to build together.

Despite it, I still feel very lonely. My girlfriend and I were going to visit a friend of ours, to spend Eve and eat tamales. I felt so alone for some reason I asked her if she could get dropped off at her house. I left and spent last night lurking here on FJ.

I don't know, I feel so alone guys.

#87 to #74 - hwaraam (12/25/2015) [-]

Dude, why do you feel alone?

maybe you feel something is lacking, and even those around you can't fill up that void. something similar is happening to me those days. I can't seem to find the joy in those occasions.

wanna talk about it?

#98 to #87 - rumpledforeskin (12/25/2015) [-]

I'm not exactly sure, I guess it might be due to lack of having a dad growing up. Or that I don't have a best friend to talk about stuff with. You know how people say that your bf/gf is your best friend but I don't know, I feel like you just can't talk about everything with them...if that makes any sense.

I did look up on google why I have an attachment to material things, like if I lose something it feels like its a part of me getting lost, google told me it is due to being lonely.

I can't figure it out.

#143 to #98 - hwaraam (12/26/2015) [-]

well, maybe that is. growing up without a father is very hard, and as much as you try to get over it, it just won't become a ''memory''.

You should try to accept the life that was given to you, and eventually your own mind and soul will go over the painful things that make you sad and empty and alone. perhaps then you will appreciate the value of the rest of the things, and you will be happy.

#49 - fukkentyranitar (12/25/2015) [-]

I did feel sorry for him until I got to the part where he didn't call anybody out for being super ******* ****** . In my family, the ******* gets aired out and dealt with before we all become nervous wrecks. But maybe that's just me. Or perhaps anon did something in the past that would result in him getting shunned. I can't count the amount of people my parents have basically cut off (including one of my siblings) because they we're toxic and couldn't be trusted with so much as a cup of fermented piss. Maybe I'm looking to hard for the big picture here. Somebody help me understand this please.

Yet I have real issues with staying motivated. Today I woke up with stiff painfull neck and I basically want to give up on everything now. I guess I had really big expectations for life. I feel like I am going to snap my neck tomorrow if it won't go away. I really lost my patience... I disappoint...
