Tired of the Games

Have you ever had someone that was, in one way or another, a part of your life, no matter how you feel about it? I am in this situation now. There is someone, that I honestly detest, that has weaseled their way into my life, for better or for worse, and he refuses to leave.

This person, who we shall call Laymond Leed, has decided that a certain family member of mine is pretty much his property. If she so much as talks about any other male aquaintance she knows, he gets extremely jealous, throws a temper tantrum, and walks out, then blames her for his temper. Laymond also tends to be a complete ass to everyone else in the household, but then gets upset if someone disagrees with him or shares their honest opinion of him.

It truly infuriates me when he makes comments about my family, especially me, then doesn't have the balls enough to confront me with the shit he is talking. Laymond Leed is truly a coward and an ass.

Now, I am no expert, however I was trained by the largest P.D. in our area on how to recognize abusive behavior. Laymond is an abuser if I have EVER seen one! He claims to "wrestle" with my family member, and she has huge bruises all over her arms and legs, but yet she falls back into her typical victim routine that she used to use 15 years ago with the last jackass that beat on her and says "Oh, he didn't mean to." or "We were just playing around. It isn't really THAT bad." I'm sorry, but Charles Manson is his fucking idol! Does that not throw up a red flag to anyone else?

He has been married several times, and each time the woman has left him. Half of his own children won't associate with him, and apologize for his behavior when we bring it up to them.

This Laymond Leed needs to be stopped. Whether she finally wises up and kicks his ass to the curb or not, he WILL be going away soon. No one can stand him, it's just that I'm the most vocal about it. Other people are afraid to say anything for fear of retaliation, not only by him, but by our family member whom, in one breath says she knows he isn't "the one" but that he is "Mr. Right Now", then in the next breath says how she loves him and wants to have him with her all the time.

She needs a reality check, and he needs an attitude check.
