dissectionist: A digital artwork of a biomechanical horse, head and shoulder only. It’s done in shades of grey and black and there are alien-like spines and rib-like structures over its body. (Default)

Yep. All that’s left at this point is pronouncing the death (of the relationship) and then the grieving (which never really stops, because a tiny part of you wants to believe that maybe they’ll change someday and you could be reunited, even though 99% of you knows it won’t happen). Knowing you gave them one last chance to be better does help during the grieving, but that last chance needs to be a private conversation between LW and Sis, not LW’s child being forced to be around Sis and Family.

And once the schism is formal, LW, don’t give in to pressure from your parents to smooth things over. You _will_ be pressured because your parents understand as well as your sister does that you’re the one who usually backs down under pressure, and their priority will be reuniting their estranged kids. They won’t care that it would be a false piece that would come at the expense of LW and LW’s kid.
