re: Anyone else have a family member who simply enjoys causing drama/problems?

Thankfully no. I am very fortunate to have the family that I have

I hope my older sister rots in hell or dies of a slow, long, and painful death. If the latter part happens, I'll be right by her bedside, before her death, smiling.

Thank you, Jesus for giving me drama free, respectable siblings. I can’t even imagine dealing with that bs.

One of my sisters (no pics) has become that person. I’m convinced that she does certain things now with the goal of causing drama. Doesn’t matter who it hurts as long as it gets a reaction from someone. Makes me dread the holidays.

Just one? Hell no. Bunches LOL. My dear Mama was the ringleader for years but she is too old to be dramatic now....her drama is real LOL. She did pass the gene onto to almost ALL of the women in our family. It was actually a minor factor in our leaving the country for nearly 10 years. It doesn't impact us like it once did - I actually laugh at them when they get started and it pisses them off no end but they do not bother to involve me. They do try to get my wife involved but she has always told them it was their drama, she wasn't getting involved. Family going to family

Dead now and all are openly happy about it, no lie. Horrible toxic person with short bouts of awesomeness. BPD.

I have 2 living sisters. Our mom is in a nursing home with advanced dementia. All 3 of us go, separately, get her and take her to lunch and maybe some shopping 4-5 times a year. Every time one of us does it and see one another just after the first thing any of us says is "she was perfect....no drama at all". That is how steeped in our psyche her drama, when she was younger and full of piss and vinegar, is. It is far worse for my sisters, I was the golden child - the drama directed toward me was almost exclusively directed toward my wife who seldom rose to the bait, bless her soul. It is really sad that adult kids are guarded because of life experiences with that BS. I watch both my sisters around their kids and they absolutely bend over backwards to prevent them experiencing the same crap. I am certain their kids "think" their moms are drama queens, and they are to some extent, but they have no idea how much better their moms are than their moms mom was.....

As man I am certain I have a slanted view of this subject but I can say, without reserve, that I can't think of a single time a man in our family has ever caused any drama. This includes a laundry list of men with all manner of substance abuse issues, gambling, whoring around, belonging to the klan....all manner of ill shite, never, in my memory, turned into a 6 month long drama with people not speaking to one another and ruining kids birthday parties. My dad and a cousin almost came to blows over politics at a family re-union about 20 years ago and within 15 minutes of calling one another anything but a child of god they were drinking and playing cards and busting one another's balls good naturedly. They did not involve their wives or girlfriend - the first move any of the women would have done is ask their male significant other "are you going to let her speak to me that way?". I've seen men in my family do similar things at funerals, birthdays, weddings....it always lasted a short period of time and was over....not so with the women....some of it has lasted decades. Again, I am sure i am looking at it through tinted glasses but it seems like women go further and hang on longer when it comes to drama than men....

My brother's wife. She hates me bc I've called her out for cheating on him multiple times. She has told their 3 kids & various other family members they need to hate me as well. Makes family gatherings an awkward tragedy that everyone hates attending.

So your brother is a cuck? I'd be mad at him, not her.

I have an aunt that used to be a fricking menace. Quiting Alcohol worked for her and she has been tame for the last few years.

Old age and dementia did it for my mother. She is a kitten now. A lion with a toothache, diarrhea and an ingrown toenail was more pleasant to be around than she was when she was young, and if she was drinking, which was all the time, it was infinitely worse.

she has her husband go and basically cuss out the MIL

That’s absolutely crossing the line for him to do that IMO.

Yes, he is. I have no idea why he stays with this woman. She has some kind of magical spell over him & we all have to suffer because of it.
