Welcome back ladies and gentlemen of the internet. We all know that one person who just never has anything together, who can never learn from their mistakes and pick themselves up from the graves they dig themselves in. It's difficult to witness a friend or family member who's in need, but at the end of the day they have to be the ones to help themselves. 

This brings us to the Reddit thread. The original poster (OP) is a woman up to her neck in frustration. Her brother-in-law has caused so many problems in his own life, that it's starting to affect hers as well. This man continually mistreats women, resulting in him getting kicked out of his living situation constantly, and having to rely on others. He ends up in another situation like this, and it gets to the point where his family has to take him in, much to his sister-in-law's disapproval.

    Jason asked me to let his brother sleep over at our place so I agreed because it was already too late at night. I was very specific that I will not live with his brother under the same roof. Chuck moved in with his close friend but has already been told that he needs to leave. Jason asked me to give his brother a chance which is a huge NO for me, and he's gone

    My (F39) fiance Jason ( M39) and I have been together for 3 years, engaged for 6 months. We live together. His brother Chuck (M38) is a mess and we don't get along.

    Chuck is super into conspiracy theories, loves to ride coat tails and the string of exes that hate him could fill up a highway. The story is very much the same in every case. He meets the girl, does some serious love bombing, gains access to her things, then cheats, gets caught and gets dumped. Rinse and repeat.

    I tried to keep a distant but cordial relationship with him until I learned that one of his exes almost self offed and he seemed flattered. Also, his jokes began to get more and more personal until I realized that he was just brazen and disrespectful. I cut ties with him and this has caused severe problems in my relationship with Jason.

    Chuck started a relationship with Emma early this year. She seems to be well to do and let him use her car. I don't have the entire story but supposedly, she broke up with him while he was out of town. She kept asking for her car back and he kept pushing the date to return it. So she called the police and reported it as stolen.

    She took him back a few weeks later, only to end things abruptly. We had to go pick Chuck up at a train station. All his belongings were inside trash bags. He had no money for a ticket or even for a meal. He was visibly agitated, and Jason called me out for showing no interest. Then Chuck explained why it happened. I was expecting

    it. He got caught cheating and all broke loose. He even lost his job because he worked for her close friend and was locked out of the house.

    Well, I came home early and found the TV on. It was weird and it scared me. I went into our bedroom and found Chuck sleeping on our bed. I have no words to describe how much I hate him. He always destroys everything. This time he peed all over the bathroom mat and I found out because of the smell.

    No one else does that. I think he also went into my small office space in the family room because my chair was moved into the living room. I called Jason immediately. I wanted him to deal with his brother but I didn't get any support. He yelled at me and said I was around and was about to find out and it sounded

    like a threat to break up. I feel broken inside. Im sick of Chuck as whenever he shows up, he takes stuff ( hair conditioner, food, random small decor stuff) without permission and this is just another reason to despise him.

    We had reached much stability before this happened. I tried to talk to Jason about it yet again and he said I'm trying to rip his brotherly relationship apart. I don't wanna have anymore because I feel humiliated. with him

    I understand he loves his brother and that I'm not in his position. My kids love him so much and he wanted to adopt them. I'm so lost here. A part of me wants to move out because I feel like I suddenly lost my place in his life. AITA for hating his brother and rejecting him?

    P... 16h ago • Edited 4h ago No, you're not wrong. Your husband fiance sounds like an . I think you should start looking into exit plans. Don't leave your house. Is there somewhere else in your house you can sleep?

    RoseBlissxo 16h ago NTA. Chuck's a mess, and it's totally fair to not want him in your home. Jason dismissing your boundaries is a red flag. You deserve to feel safe and respected in your own space.

    GemGlamourNGli... • 16h ago NTA. Chuck clearly has problems that only he can fix when he is ready to transition into adulthood. While I understand that Jason is just trying to help his manchild brother, I don't think it's fair that it has to be at your expense. Because

    from the history of his behavior, this will definitely backfire on the both of you. I would have one last conversation with Jason and tell him that you under no circumstances want to live with his brother because of how much of a screwup he is. If Jason continues to persist, then you know that

    it's time for the relationship to end and for you to do better for your kids.

    ElementalHelp ⚫16h ago This is absolutely unacceptable. Call the cops and have him removed if your bf won't do it. You have KIDS. This guy is unstable and dangerous. He's peeing on things. He needs to go NOW.

    The relationship is already ruined at this point. Your boyfriend destroyed it. All that remains is figuring out how to move out and get away from him. So just get the cops involved and get this psycho out of your home immediately. ΝΤΑ

    ...astoldbybeja • 14h ago If you're renting notify the landlord/ property manager and go over Jason's head. No more talking OP, it's time for action, make your calls, pack their collective , call it the brotherly love package set, idc. Get them both out
