They still bring it up at holidays, though.

    My parents were addicts and mentally unhealthy and did the best they could under those conditions, which was at least enough keep me alive long enough for me to meet my partner whom I’ve been with for 25 years and she always takes care of me when I’m sick and gives me love without condition.

    They hated her, tried to break us up, tried to sabotage our relationship because I preferred to be with her. My family placed bets that we would be divorced in three years because we met young.

    I’m the last one standing. I won. It just sucks that everyone couldn’t be kind to each other and take care of themselves and those around them.
