my sister is driving me crazy. i’ve always been really skinny my whole life.

now i’m skinner because i have a medical condition that makes it extremely hard me to gain weight. i’m always in a battle to gain weight. she has a MAJOR issue w this. she knows i’ve been to the doc over 20 times from last year…. three specialist… and even got endoscopy and colonscopy to see if i have cancer (which i didnt)

yet. she sympathizes w me in private…. in public, she’ll mortify me by saying things like “i can see your chest bones, eat more… you better fatten up before my wedding”…. and she even got mad at me for emailing the bridesmaids because i said nordstrom didnt have my size so i need tailoring( i didnt even mention the size number , only that they didnt have my size)…. and took me off the braidsmaids’ email list…
she’s always comparing schools (she went to the best, i went to average), and our pets (always asking everyone which dog is cuter), and our spouses….
I tried sooooo much to have a breakthru in our relationship because she harbors soooo much resentment towards me.

when we were teenagers, she used to make me write a food journal everyday and force feed me. i had to always eat anything she offered in public, because she’s call me anorexic and bulimic in front of all my friends /her friends etc… she confessed 10yrs later that she did that because she had an eating disorder.

she has a habit of asking people who looks younger (because she looks younger even tho she’s older) EVERY time we meet new people. she once asked SEVEN WHOLE times in her friend’s house party.

I think she has nothing to be jealous about bc she’s soooo way more successful than me, i think she’s way more prettier, and she’s someone i always looked upto as a kid. i’m just stating the facts here. She has a hourglass figure (big boobs, tiny waist, big bust… i’m like a boy figure w like nonexistent boobs ), she’s really successful in her career, i’m still in school…..She’s been asked to model and be in music videos while just walking around , i’ve never been asked that my whole life… yet she’s the one who acts jealous and i’m the one who has to limit good events in my life to her so that she wont get jealous…Since we were younger, she had to get more clothes when we shopped, i had to get the same haircut if she didnt like her haircut, and she had to get everything newer /better or else she threw these tantrums…. so my parents obliged and i never really minded since this is been my entire life….
I’ve always been a sickly child (i looked like i was in first grade when i was in fifth grades) and my parents always had to take care of me. I was never allowed to go to slumber parties and long termed trips because they were afraid that i would get sick. (this did not apply for my sister since she was very healthy). and til this day, she’s always mentioning how our parents love me more… but it was because i was always sick and i had no control over it….

she’s gotten better at the tantrums she throws at me since she started therapy 5 yrs ago, but it comes back and it’s a vicious cycle.

i love her so much but this is too much. when she got engaged, she called everyone else, ignored my voicemails, even called my bestfriend (they’re not even close), and told the whole facebook community before she called me to tell me of her engagement. it’s really funny and sad to me because i would’ve called her FIRST if i got engaged….

as i’m approaching my 30s, i feel that her hatred towards me will never cease and it will be better if i just severed our relationship….

what do you think?

    I feel sorry for you. your sister is a whiny b!tch from hell. You are sick and she’s throwing tantrums

    im sorry. your sister and you should be VERY close. i know how you feel though. when my sister gets it in her head that she wants to be mean to me (FOR NO REASON!) she’ll do it and it hurts. try talking to her (again) and if that doesnt work then maybe you need to distance yourself because otherwise she’ll just hate you more as time goes on…like i said before im sorry and i hope that your relationship gets better with her. one day shell grow up and realize that shes missing out on a great opportunity!! good luck!!

    sibling rivalry thing going on here.she’s jealous of you and even though you are not competing with her she’s been competing with you for several years.she’s really insecure. she needs to work on her insecurities.

    no one can tell you whether or not to sever your relationship with your sister. i am so sorry that you are being forced to feel some of your sister’s pain, and that your sister treats you this way. you don’t deserve it. perhaps i’m not qualified to make this statement, but it seems to me as though your sister has very low self-esteem and strives for the approval of others by constantly attempting to best you. some of this is a part of her eating disorder. i am sixteen and have an eating disorder, and i constantly compare myself to my sister and others, although i’m not verbal about it as your sister is. your sister doesn’t appear to recognize how much she is hurting you and others around you. you’ve probably tried already, but if you haven’t please try to talk in a nonconfrontational manner and tell her how much you are hurt by her actions and how much you worry about the damage her eating disorder is inflicting on her. perhaps that will make her realize how much she impacts you with her words and actions, and possibly make her realize how much her eating disorder has effected her actions and those around her. i hope this advice has helped you a little, and i hope that things get better for you and your sister

    I actually don’t have a answer but I have to admit, you’re very generous toward her, while she is mean to you! Well done.
