My brother went into a rage when driving home from northern Wisconsin for 4th of July week. It was just me and him in the car. I said I didn't want to go on vacation with him again because of his anger and he blew up. First he said "going on vacation with me is the only thing you have to look forward to. You have no friends and no job." Then I told him I didn't have time to deal with this because of my anxiety and ptsd from being raped. He then said "you were asking for it. Sleeping around with so many men like a *****." I started having a panic attack and he started swerving around the road and punching the steering wheel. I have rarely slept around. He does with women all the time. He is a financial advisor and he is involved in real estate. He's a total sociopath and I don't know why I ever decided to ride with him. He once beat up a down syndrome kid when he was in high school. He's pure evil and I have venom for him now. I never ever want to see him again and will never forgive him. I've been crying the last couple days. My life feels so terrible right now. I can't think straight, I'm angry, I'm depressed. I've never felt so hurt in my life.

OMG! I'm glad you are safe! How awful of your brother. It's always so difficult when a sibling turns on you. It sounds like a relationship with him would be toxic to you. Hard as it is, I definitely think you should cut him out of your life.

Did you tell him off too?.
Forgiveness is a virtue of the Gods.
I wish I had a brother, to mop the floor with him.

Me and my sister have a similar relationship. She blows up then wonders why every is against her. She clams she has no memory but she remember's what other people have said. She doesn't believe anyone that tells her the thing she has done wrong. Even though we're family I keep her at a safe distance. I only talk about safe stuff even if she asks my opinion I do not give it. I'm very careful of what I say to her as it can be used as ammunition later. I avoid riding with her but I do help her. Never money, always positive. I can't/won't cut ties because it hurts my parents so bad. Plus I wouldn't want to do that to my niece and nephews. My son says I'm an enabler but if I cut off my family I would have no family left.

I'm sorry you had to go through that.

I don't have a relationship with my brother. After the parents died we settled the estate and I haven't heard from him since. We were pretty hostile to each other growing up and he got to stay home while I was kicked out.

I’m glad your safe

Can you just not be around him very much at all.

Sucks he treats you this way.

I'm so sorry. How painful, I think, to have a sibling who is toxic like your brother seems to be.
I also want to point out that being sexually active is perfectly acceptable as long as the people involved are adults and the sex is consensual. I would not refer to being a sexual human being as "sleeping around". And choosing to have sex - I don't care if you have sex 50 times a day - has absolutely nothing to do with rape. Rape is a crime of violence, not sex.

I am sorry your brother treats you this way.

I have a very hostile sister and BIL and it's constant trouble.
I try to stay away from them as much as possible.
