I received a message from a woman that was married to a distant relative of mine (3rd cousin).
I gave her a few tidbits of info. I have on the family she is trying to find out about (her ex's family) and she wants to know where I now live and also if she can come to meet my husband and me.
Furthermore, she lives not far from my only sibling that I rarely hear from and also a niece whose husband works in the town she lives in! *yikes*! I have nothing to do with this brand of gun humping pukes with good reason, need I say more?
Do I really care to open this can of worms?
What do you recommend I do? I am in poor health and have had five life-threatening infections this year and I am have been directed to AVOID all stress (if possible ... good luck in this day in age eh?).
Appreciate any thoughts/ideas re: how should I deal with this woman as I do not want her coming to my home and "visiting" me. It is a long drive that would take at least 8 hrs. to get from where she is to where I am and I have no accommodations for her as the place I live in is very small. Frankly, I would never do this to someone I did not know at least a bit better, not someone I got a message from online. Am I being paranoid or what?
Many thanks for your help.
