Is It Over Yet?

As you know, DBF's sister and her boyfriend live with us. We will call her DSIL and him G. Now, this is more drama about them.

G is in the Air Force like DBF and while he's stationed where we live he's actually from California. Usually, once a year or so, G goes to visit his family and his friends back home. That's all well and good except for the fact that for some reason once he gets there he can't seem to take a few seconds out of his day to even send DSIL a text or give her a call.

Last year when G went back home he didn't call or text DSIL for a full 2 weeks. This time DSIL made him promise before he left that he would just give her a quick call or text every day. How hard is that, right? The answer is: Apparently way to hard for G. So now DSIL is considering breaking up with G again.

 DBF doesn't even blame her for wanting to break up with G this time. She can be a bit over dramatic most of the time so DBF actually tends to side with G on most things because usually DSIL is overreacting. But this time when she talked to DBF about what was going on he agreed with her reaction. She told me that when DBF agrees with her she knows she has a legitimate reason for leaving.

I know that if it were me or DBF with family far away that we'd be calling each other every day we were gone and texting constantly. It just goes to show how damaged DSIL and G's relationship is. They have way more good days than bad days and even DSIL admits that even with the few good days that it's just not worth it anymore. But I'm waiting to see what happens now because with those 2 you never really know if they're going to decide to keep trying.

I feel bad for DSIL. She's got so much going on right now with work and her ovarian cyst and her relationship with G falling apart. But I think if she can just get rid of one of those stresses she'll be a lot happier. She doesn't have any control over her ovarian cyst so that's kind of has to stay. She has a car to pay off, other bills to pay, and possibly finding a place to live on her own so her job is sort of important. Her relationship with G she has control over, she can just decide that it's too stressful and end it. I for one really hope that she does. I think it'll be good for her but we'll just have to wait and see how things play out.
