dancindanger answered Monday December 20 2004, 11:25 pm: Tell her that you think she shouldn't be too overprotective. Say that you really love how she cares for you, but you do have your own life and maybe she shouldn't be so centered on it. Hope I helped!

Shortie8959 answered Monday December 20 2004, 7:35 pm: Just talk to her about how she's being way overprotective. It's not really her fault. She's means well, it's just because she loves you, so it's not entirely a bad thing. But just explain (nicely) how you feel, and she'll understand. Good luck!
Hope I helped!

I'm getting older, and i would never do anything stupid you know that." explain if she doesnt loosen up, you won't be able to trust her or tell her stuff anymore becaus you feel she won't understand
lotz o' luv,

xoxbellabebexox answered Monday December 20 2004, 11:06 am: tell your sister that she has to realize that you will have more boyfriends and that she should trust you and that if she doesnt act like this you would come to her.
hope it works out
wiccanwitch69 answered Monday December 20 2004, 10:59 am: First of all, how old are you?? That might play a part in her being so protective of you. My sister was sometimes over protective of me. But i told her that she didnt need to be and that I can make my own decisions about who I want to date and that its not her business to tell me, or the guy I would be with, what to do. Its your life, not hers. Tell her that you appreciate her being protective of you but she doesnt need to be and that she needs to respect your relationship with this guy. Just tell her how you feel. Hope I helped! Blessed be. ~Candy [ wiccanwitch69's advice column | Ask wiccanwitch69 A Question ]
