hmm...that's a toughie. if it's been like that all your life, i would say cut ties and only see her on holidays. just as she acted as if you graduating in june was nothing important, act the same towards her. if she has great news, just play it off like, "okay {silence}. is there anything else you were calling about?"

my way, may not be the "right" way, but i don't like when there's a sibling that pretends they're more important, or feels that you aren't. they need to be brought back down to earth. and by people feeding their behavior by being so overly joyed and excited about their news just isn't helping the situation...

I have a sister who feels as if no matter what ne of us other 3 siblings does, shes done it better, shes smarter BLAH BLAH BLAH...I have to deal with her regularly as she lives with our mom..we have seperate fathers. So in order to simply tolerate her annoying lil squeaky drama loving voice, every time she speaks...I interupt if nothing else to say how bad the weather sucks. Treat her as she treats others. And if she didnt graduate college, then when she smarts off or remarks about it, tell her that when SHE graduates and knows how hard it is then she can open her mouth, til then all ASSUMPTIONS should be left silent as she wont know til SHE has been there. AND U GO GIRL!! BE PROUD

No, you don't cut your sister out of life. Everyone is not going to celebrate your good fortune and you more likely going to experience that amongst siblings of the same sex. There story of Cain and Abel can be found in every family, jealousy that is; especially when it comes accomplishments, but it is more about them than you.

One of my sisters use to come to my house and steal something then boast to other family members how she got over on me; the thing about it is she didn't have to steal, if she had asked I would have gladly given it to her.

The lesson for me to learn was to see people as they are and not who I would want them to be or as I believe they should act.

It is natural to want to give tic-for-tac, but don't change you by stooping to down to their level, the world needs more leaders, for goodness sake we have enough followers.

My sister can come to my home, I just know I need to put my valuables away; I don't expect something from someone that which they are incapable of giving. I meet people right where they are whether they rise above or not I will still be wlright.

A BIG WELCOME TO THIS GROUP, I AM NEW ALSO...HAVE A GREAT DAY...

Since not only u but also another one who replied are new, we welcome u but trust me...I am still fairly new myself and WOW dont always expect such acceptance as I have been trying hard on a few and think I am now missing a junk of my tongue cause I bit so hard. So beware, they r those on here that r just well...disrespectful. So welcome and hope u get the advice, courage, help or support ur seeking.

IT WOULD BE WONDERFUL IF WE COULD JUST CUT RELATIVES LIKE THIS OUT OF OUR LIFE FOR GOOD!!BUT ITS NOT REALISTIC BECAUSE SHE HAPPENS TO BE RELATED TO EVERYONE YOU ARE.I SAY JUST DONT BOTHER WITH HER AND ONLY DEAL WITH HER WHEN YOU HAVE TO LIKE AN EVENT PLANNED BY YOUR MOM AND THINGS LIKE THIS.EVEN THEN I WOULD MAKE IT HI SIS AND MAKE WHY WAY OVER TO AN AUNT OR SOMEONE ELSE AND HAVE AS LITTLE CONTACT AND CONVO WITH HER AS POSSIBLE.EVERYONE RUNS THEIR HOMES DIFFERENT.I HAVE ONE RULE WHICH APLYS TO MY FAMILY WHEN THEIR IN MY HOME.RESPECT ME MY HOME AND THE PEOPLE IN IT OR DONT COME OVER.BUT WE HAVE NO CONTROL WHOM OTHERS ALLOW IN THEIR HOMES.WE DO HAVE CONTROL OVER WHAT SITUATIONS WE PUT OURSELVES IN AND HOW WE HANDLE THEM.THERE ARE FAMILY MEMBERS I KEEP FROM ENTERING MY HOME BECAUSE THEY LIKE TO START FAMILY DRAMA OR BECAUSE I CAN NOT TRUST THEM AROUND MY VALUABLES.THERE IS A SAYING YOU ARE JUDGED BY THE COMPANY YOU KEEP!
