I was talking to a family member the other day and convo turned to my brother. Fondly known these days as Creepy Uncle (name). He used to be known as Crazy Uncle (name) but it escalated. As we talked I realised the description was familiar and then I realised it was Alice. His wife left him 14 years ago. She divorced him 11 years ago and remarried 4 years ago. Their son couch surfed through high school, going home 2 or 3 nights a week to check on dad and make sure he was Ok. Couldn't stay there longer than that. Son now lives with mum and her 2nd husband. House is a falling down wreck and he claims she refuses to agree to sell it but, you know. Now they are long out of Family Law Court time and she appears to have given up ever getting her share of money out of the property. 15 months ago he had some hare-brained scheme where ex wife and son would come around a few hours a week and help rehab the place so they could sell it. Because sure, happily remarried, she would want to spend hours doing that. He's stuck in some weird head space where if they all just got together to paint the house and build a white picket fence, they could all be a happy family.
Yes my brother is a male Alice.
