Today, I returned home from a 2-day trip. Before I left, I told my brother to move my car across the street when the street cleaner passes by. Turns out, he used all my gas and got so wasted he forgot to move my car. I got a big ticket that he said he'd pay for. He's unemployed and lives off me. FML

Today, as usual, I work nights and sleep during the day. I found out that my brother uses my car and never puts gas in it when he called me for the first time to actually ask me if he could borrow my car, and also to lend him $20 to put gas in it. FML

Today, after spending two days cleaning my car inside and out, I had to pick up my brother when his truck died in the mountains, on a dirt road. He was drunk. I now have a car covered in mud and filled with vomit. FML

Today, my brother "borrowed" my car and keys without asking me. He came back 4 hours later, alone and pale faced. It took half an hour of questions, interrogation, and finally threats before he admitted that my car is sitting in a ditch a few miles away, probably totaled. FML

Today, my car wouldn't start, so I had to wait for AAA. Then, hurrying to pick up my brother, I got a $161 speeding ticket. Twenty minutes later, I got a call from him saying he didn't need a ride anymore. FML

Today, my brother was going to get some drinks for a party we were going to. After getting the drinks, he ended up leaving me at home while he went and got drunk like never before. FML

Today, I came home to found all of my belongings out on the street. My roommate, who is also my brother, apparantly neglected to pay his part of the rent, and we got evicted. FML

Today, I let my brother borrow my car, as he had a job interview. I told him the tank was nearly empty and gave him $20 to put some petrol in it. Ten minutes later, he calls me, saying the car won't start. He filled it up with diesel. It's a petrol car. FML

Today, while at work at a new job, my brother comes and takes my car. Along with all my money, my phone, and whatever else I had in my purse. His message to me through one of my co-workers was "walk home." FML

Today, my mom let my younger brother borrow my car. He managed to crash it through the garage door. While I was in another country. Somehow, I manage to get berated by my mom because I'm not doing enough to make my brother feel better about him having an accident involving my car and my house. FML

Today, I was sent to a customer's house to switch out a washing machine. My boss had assured me that everything I'd need was already in the truck. Halfway there, I ran out of gas and I realized I didn't have the gas card. My boss says it's my fault. FML

I don't understand how your brother used all your gas but forgot to move your car? did he sit in the one spot with the car engine running?

how can he kick his bro out like that? it's just wrong. I'd say you help him get on a straight track and help him get a job.

It's her/his brother. You don't kick out your unemployed brother out of the house, you just don't. I'm not saying that it was okay he did that, but still. :/

Come on though, the brother got drunk and wasted the OP's gas selfishly, I don't think he was thinking about his brother(OP) when he was doing that, even though OP is the one providing for him financially, sometimes people take the kindness of their own family too far.

Eh. Ya know, sometimes the tone of our comments is merely a reflection of our own lives. if I've had a reasonable day, my comments are usually pretty light. But if I've had a shitty, stressed out day, I'm goin off on somebodys dumb ass.

There's nothing wrong with you kicking him out. If he's not gonna leave soon, he'll be fully dependant of you. Not only are you helping him but also yourself. ;) afterall you wouldn't want to get to the point where you'd have to literally spoon feed him.

Seriously, tell him that if he's going to mooch off your ass then you get to claim him as a dependent on your tax returns. If he bitches, tell him to GTFO.

In the first place: why do you let him live of you? Although he might be your brother, it is no reason that he should not take care of himself. Maybe you can get an official settlement with a thrid party, that is at least the thing I would do!
