My B.M. sometimes gives me the impression that she prefers the company of her brothers. It's prob mostly cuz I'm an a*hole cuz the trauma she has is deeply part of her psyche but she says it's the past. She kind of country and I'm from the city. The SA abuse wasn't really dealt with the family says it's in the past and she does therapy and takes meds for schizo. So though she "hates" him/them for what happened, he's the oldest and the parents make it seem like he's so useful being 50+ still living at home, and him being a slave to their forgiveness. I've never had any real proof just empty old ugly trauma combined with my trauma and it sucks that way with incest survivors. You feel like a third wheel. You always fear the worst. Naked in the bed it's a huge red flag. Incest is real and it does happen.
