I was just trying to listen to my brother talk, and i said im like a dog when it comes to emotions, if people feel bad i feel bad. Yeah i know, stupid analogy, but my brother goes off on me. He tells me that just because i feel emotion doesn’t make me a dog, and that winds up somehow to him saying he can’t relate to me. He says i’ve never had a job, never been told i’m worthless, etc. after that, i start to go upstairs because he took a positive conversation and made it into a bad one. He starts making fun of me, so i went up stairs. Pretty sure he was drinking, he was out of it and had a tall boy in his hand, so i would hope he didnt mean it, but some of that shit i havent got to experience yet. Made fun of me for still being in high school, shit i cant change because i cant really change my age, made fun of me for not having a job, when he doesnt have one and im not old enough to get a job (I desperately want one, to cope with money and have something to do), tells me to keep up my bad grades (im actively trying to improve them by getting help), and basically talking me down for no apparent reason, basically acting like i said the worst shit to him. I havent had any real world experiences because im NOT OLD ENOUGH. Acts like I have all these opportunities and im not taking them, when in reality all i have and am able to do is high school, not like him with his welding degree and him not moving to a different stste (he says he is going to, and has said multiple times he was, like after Christmas, but still hasn’t). He acts like im lazy, like i dont try to improve, he never sees my efforts and all he does at the moment is sleep, play video games, and drink.
