I'm Currently Feeling: | drunken sisters comments since i found out i was pregnant, my sister comes out with comments..it hurts me a bit cause i feel like she is not happy for me..for example..someone said to me that i wont be able to drink at my other sisters hen night. and my sister said "she brought it on herself...she just puts a dampner on things all the time..tonight she came in drunk out of her head...and she said to my sister "your my favaourite sister" and my mum said "is andrea your favourite sister too?" and she said "no cause she's pregnant" and then i had to go out..and she realised that she had upset me..so she started crying..she was really drunk..being sick and everything...when people are drunk they say what they mean.
my mum and dad think that she might be feeling left out..as our other sister is getting married in 2 months time, and i have a fiance and i am having a baby, and she is single. has anybody else had an experience a bit like this? |

I'm Currently Feeling: | I have never experienced anything like that, but IMHO she does sound jealous to me. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Doesnt she just, tell her to grow up, she must be at least 18 to be drinking, or maybe not, but anyway, sisters should be happy for one another.

I'm Currently Feeling: | Sounds to me like she's jeoulous hon. why don't you try spending some qaulity time together? Just the 2 of you, maybe some shopping for the day, or going to the cinema? Sometimes when people are drunk and say things, it's not necessarily what they mean - they just lash out and say nasty things without thinking.
Other people calling her a bitch won't help the situation here. |

I'm Currently Feeling: | Definitely jealousy. It sounds like she really needs to grow up. I think it's really important that you remind yourself it is her insecurity talking rather that her true self. Try not to react because it will only be fuel to the fire. Let her dig herself a hole- she'll soon realise what a bitch she's being.
Hope you're ok. Don't let it get to you.

I'm Currently Feeling: | I definitely think she's feeling left out and jealous - which are perfectly normal emotions. However, you're also perfectly normal to be so hurt by it all.
I agree with Kat - maybe some time together just the 2 of you doing something you both enjoy will help.  |

thanks xxx | I think maybe you should tell her that she is lucky not to be tied down, having a partner and kids is great, but its also great to make the most of your freedom and independence.
Just remind her that she has her whole life in front of her so make the most of being young.
Id also have a word with her about binge drinking and the damage she could be causing to her body, but id do the reassuring thing first.
As for you, i know its upsetting for you, but rise above it, be the stronger person.
Have a word with your sis and i bet you feel great after because you will have addressed the situation and you will feel proud of your self for not letting it go to far.
Good luck and i hope you sort it out soon.  |
