LESSON LEARNED

One time my sisters ex came into town while i was living with her. She agreed to let him sleep on the couch while he was in town for the weekend. He said yeah but figured hed end up in her bed anyway. I wake up to them arguing because hes climbed into her bed and wants sex and shes saying she didnt agree to that. This went on forever and i just ignored it and tried to go back to sleep.after a while my sister starts crying and tells him that she wants him out and she wish she were a man so she could fight him and throw him out.now the kind of person i am wont let me not get involved at this point.this is my sister now and i cant let some dude pick on her especially while im right there.i go in the room and yeah i was a litlle nervous cause this was a big dude and there was a good chance i wouldnt win that fight but that was nothing compared to the pain id feel for not defending my sister cause i was scared. i tell dude to get out.he tells me to mind my business and that when his sister and her man fight he just minds his business.i told him this was past an argument and he needed to kick rocks or get ready to fight me cause nothing else needed to be said.

Then i got the knockout punch.no the dude didnt touch me.my sister runs up the stairs and cusses my motherfucking ass out for getting in her business and she can take care of herself. my jaw hit the ground yall.ive never been so shocked in my life.i jumped in to defend this girl and she turned on me.woooooooooooowwwwwwww.i was so upset i went in my room and slammed the door.i was still upset so i gave the door a kick.i dont know what material the door was made out of but it EXPLODED .i didnt expect that but fuck it i had other things on my mind.i thought family was supposed to stick together no matter what.how she could defend this dude and get on me when i was right and he was wrong?

the dude comes to my room and he reaches in through the hole i just created in my door and unlocks the door an comes in and apologizes.i wanted to tell him fuck you but what would have been the point of that? my sister already chose her side so whats the point of me continuing to beef with him? i didnt accept his apology but i didnt fight him either.i was so frustrated that day for so many reasons.mainly cause my sister betrayed me and secondly if i could have moved out i would have done so right away.i felt so helpless man.i had to keep living there even though i didnt want to,i told myself then i never wanted to be so bad off financially that i couldnt do what i wanted with my life.i guess thats why i get so frustrated with having to take care of somebody financially to the point i cant really do what i want for myself.it goes against everything i promised to myself years ago.to make things worse my sister gives the dude a ride to go stay somewhere else (she should have threw his shit out on the curb and told him to call a cab Beyonce style).when she gets home and comes to my room and looks at the door and asks me what happened to her door.i scream on her that she knows what happened.she tells me that i better come up with some way to fix it.i was soooooooooooo angry about that.i love my sister but to this day we still arent as close as we used to be before that day.she showed her true colors that day.i learned a valuable lesson though : dont get too involved in somebodys personal affairs.thats why its called personal affairs.

you may say im fucked up but if im walking down the street and see some dude shaking the shit out of his lady,thats not my business.a security guard i knew tried to break up a domestic dispute one time and the husband and the wife tag teamed his ass like the Legion of Doom used to do.Ive seen dudes beat up their women,cheat on them and those women take them back,shit some of them dont even leave in the first place.

Gyrrrrlll Bye. This is my first time here but I am so with you on this. I'm the oldest of my biological sisters and I would have intervened also..but her screaming on me? She could forget me ever defending her ass...if I heard her punch her in her damn face I wouldnt even so much as call the damn police....its tough when you are living with people and you have to depend on them when things like that happen...there have been times that I wished I could just up and leave...but it just goes to show...some people you cant depend on and it really hurts to bite the bullet, but when you have no where else to go...you have to...

Ya sister has sum loyalty issues. You were just ryin to help.

Don't give up on her. She'll be abck for you're help when a nigga starts undertakenin her ass (God forbid it takes that) but trust me don't dwell on it, boo.

You did the right thing.

Unfortunately this isht happens all the time. It's sad that it affected your relationship with her. How long ago was this?

some ppl gotta learn the hard way

wow @ your sis pickin' her dude's side over yours. it's one thing to stick your nose in business you don't need to be in.. but when it's a serious situation like a dude tryna take advantage of a female, or tryna fight a female.. then it's okay to get involved, especially when the female is blood!

as for the women who stay w/ men who disrepect them.. it's sad but true that they are so hard to help cuz they are blinded by "love." it's all on them to get up and leave the guy, and there's only so much an outsider can do to change her mind.. i feel so bad for these women cuz they are so weak and have no self-love to remove themselves from such a bad situation.

but it is a shame that you can't be as close to your sis because of this situation.. hopefully she'll come around and realize what she did.

Yeah u definitely did the right thing, but thats how a lot of females are. That dick is the most important thing in there life. LMAO at dude stickin his hand thru the hole in the door to unlock it and come in. But I can see why yall not close cuz ya fam suppose to have ya back no matter what especially if you puttin ya ass on the line for them

I though fam is supposed to stick together no matter what. Looks like she doesn't know that. TOo bad this happens all too often

n0, it bees like that sumtime. The thing is, I think this was more than a loyalty thing - it was about her feelings for this dude. Yeah he is her ex, yeah she wasn't tryna have relations and was clearly extra serious about that, but the fact that she let him stay with her means she still got feelings. When it comes to that kind of shit, you just gotta look at them like they crazy and keep it movin.

One of my best friends had a boyfriend that beat her ass (normally in private) on a regular and one time we were at a cookout and dude was really tryna kick her ass in front of us and mad people. NONE of the dudes at the party did anything meanwhile me and my girls were tryna beat his ass. Do you not know he went to his car and got a bat and started chasing us! And do you not know that my friend still talks to that bitch ass negroid til this day? After that event, we told her that it was one thing for him to beat her ass (and no matter what we said to her about that she stayed with him) but him tryna put his hands on us (and bats and shit) was where it ends. She was defending him. Right.

So I say all that to say, while my friend is not my sister (she may as well be) and I love her but I let her do her when it comes to her relationships. Nothing you say will ever make sense to anybody who is in love or doesn't want to lose somebody for allowing you (brother, cuzin, sister, mama, friend) to get in their business.

Now I will say that you did the right thing and while your sister was really buggin by yelling at you - strait up wylin out, you should still always have her back. I bet she would be the first to have yours. I mean, she did let you stay up in her house when you clearly had no place to go.

I'm not sayin, but I'm sayin.

I feel you, if she wanted you to mind your own business she would have been quieter and kept her business between him and her but she didn't and that's the only reason you got involved!

If it was me, me and my brother would have beat that dude like he stole something! lol

Sha Sha said...

Thats what it is sometimes. I always feel if you put girl with a guy and he isn't doing her right then you get involved thinking your helping she will pick him.

Its fucked up but sometimes you got to mind your business even though you want to do the right thing.

ODARA said...

Nooooo!!! You had me in tears & a hysterical coma @ the part about dude reaching his damn hand through your door & unlocking it...hahhahahaha!!!!

You were right to step in though...But hey call it a lesson learned you know what not to do next time...yeah it's always iffy getting involved in domestic disputes or whatever because 9 times outta 10 they will find some way to turn it around on you...
