I know our brother thinks he is glad with his up-to-date man, but I suppose the guy is a total jerk.
- He does not let our brother hang out with friends and he barely lets his come see me.
My brother said he is just being protective, but I suppose he is being jealous and obsessive, however last week, the guy went berserk when he found out that our brother turned up the temperature control during the day. I know they agreed to keep the heat set to 68, but our brother was cold so he turned up the heat to 78! James came beach house from toil and saw the temperature on the temperature control and proceeded to have a mental breakdown. My brother called myself and others crying because he said James yelled and screamed for an hour when he found the temp on 78. I told our brother that was a deranged reason to yell and scream for an hour, but he dismissed the behavior and made an excuse for his bad anger problems. I know the temperature on the temperature control is no immense deal, but this is just area of a pattern of behavior that is going to keep getting worse. The guy is a ticking time bomb ready to blow at any minute. I wish our mom would talk to our brother about the guy, but he does not want to get involved. I do not mind stepping over the boundaries, because I absolutely suppose our brother is in trouble… She does not guess the warning signs of an abusive relationship, but I toil with battered men all day. This guy is a textbook example of someone with anger problems waiting to boil over.
