A chain of harshness. Brother’s divorce brings ceaseless conflict to the family. Disputes over custody of his kid and alimony constantly plague him, but I can neither help him nor ignore his troubles. Boyfriend seems to be selfish and makes me nervous. There are always anxieties lurking below the surface of any human relationships.
