Is it normal to be worried about my bf’s dangerous family (evil genes)

63% Normal
4 Comments

My boyfriend is 26 and I’m 24, we’ve been together for 2 years. He’s kind, quiet, blunt, honest, very giving, a bit reserved, the rough and tough strong and silent type most of the time. He’s a bit clumsy when it comes to being social or opening up about emotions or feelings but he means the best and doesn’t get easily frustrated, incredibly patient.

While his family is fucking insane. Everyone in his family, except his mother, is in prison for violent crimes. His brother shot and killed 3 people, his other brother stabbed his ex-wife (she lived), his sister stabbed her husband (he didn’t), his father is just an all around abusive violent fighting drunk, and his mother is only free from prison because she’s dead. From suicide. And his uncle was arrested for conspiring to commit a mass shooting.

For all these reasons my boyfriend is very distant from his family, never talks about them, and doesn’t visit them in prison. My friend likes to tease him saying he has the “serial killer gene” or the “evil root” in his head, he chuckles it off. He’s not a violent person, but can be a bit numb to death and killing. And especially with all the violence going on lately, is it crazy to be a little wary that there is such thing as a “killer gene”?

    I don't believe there's any such thing as an "evil gene" and the fact that he doesn't associate with his family is a good sign.

    The "friend" who makes jokes about this is a moronic fuckwit who needs to be dumped immediately. If I came from such a family I wouldn't find jokes about it at all funny.

    Yeah you should be worried. He might not be as evil as them but i'm sure he has some degree of npd or aspd or some other mental illness. How long have you been together?

    Well I suppose you might be a bit concerned if the two of you have a child and one day your child comes floating out of its crib cussing, using F bombs, while spinning it's head completely around and then vomiting green crap in a projectile flood. Then would be the time to be a bit concerned about an "evil gene". But for now, I'd say just chill out. Sweet dreams tonight.
