omg i'm really getting sick of my sister.(shes 2years older(15)) everyone is like obsessed with her. everyone just swarms to her and ignores me. it's basically been like this since we were babies. whenever my neighbors come to the door (which is like, every day) they're just like "is your sister here?" and if i say no they're just like o ok and walk away, and im just like hellooo i'm not invisible. and all adults are think shes like, the greatest thing ever. when shes around them, especially when we go to our grandparents house she acts all perfect. like when we ate she got up and started clearing the table and started cleaning all the dishes and cleans everything and acts like shes perfect just so people will think shes all good like that, but at home she'll just leave her crap everywhere. and tosay we were at my neighbors house and we were talking to his mom and she was talking about this time her boyfriend snuck over at like 2 and her excuse was ooh his parents were fighting and he had nowhere to go so he came to my house and my neighbors mom was all like awwww. and i was like noo unm he did that like, twice. so later she was like, o my god why did you say that?? its like she lies about stuff and then wants people to think she does nothing wrong. also, i really like to draw, and all of a sudden shes like oo i like arttt , all of a sudden and starts drawing eyes like, 24/7 and she thinks they're soo good. i drew all over my backpack one day because i was bored lol so my neighbor was over and she was like look how good this eye is so she drew it and i was like umm no offense that doesnt look real at all. so shes like fine show alex(my neighbor) the one you drew on your backpack and he'll rate them one to ten. so she draws this thing that basically look like an olive with a pupil and big straight eyelashes. and i showed him mine, (and i'm not bragging or anything. drawing is one of the few things i'm actually pretty good at) and i think it looked really good and realistic(so did my mom) and hes like to my sister, you get an 8. noo wait i mean a 10! and he saw mine and was like uuum a 5 or a 4. its like he went on my sisters side just because. its like no matter what i do my sister always has to do it better, even though i've been in her shadow basically my whole life. idk why everyone is so drawn to her, she has like, multiple personalities. shes mean to my mom and stuff but then she'll go see some other adult and act all nice and smart. same with people her own age. if shes around them and she doesnt really know them, she tries to act soo tough and stuff. it's like shes different depending on who shes around. it frustrates me soo bad because she always gets all the attention and everyone listens to her and. uugh i dunno. im just really sick of this. i'm sorry this is so long, i just really don't know what to do.
thanks

I've read your problem and god! isn't that just really tough and hard for you. I under stand what your going through and how you feel and i've answered several problems before similar to yours.
First of all, i know that when she does all that, you just get really disgusted about how so sweet she;s acting and you just can't stand her and feel like your about to strangle her or spit on her since she's almost dripping of sweetness.
But deep deep inside you, you also have to accept the fact that she's your sister, and that this is your family, and these are your neighbours and that you love them and have a special place for them in your heart,just like they have one for you in their hearts. They may act like your sister is much better than you and they may also treat her better than you, but again, inside them they love you both the same and they want whats best for each one of you.
And in their minds, just like your sister does alot of good things that impress others and makes them very fond of her, you have talents of your own and things that you probably do, that makes people give you attention too.
And believe me, i am saying all that from past experiences i have had,so don't worry and don't feel so upset ,just try to act natural and don't show anyone that your jealous or feeling down. and just try to show them that your happy for your sister, and that you don't really care if they act as if you are invisible. Ofcourse it is so mean, rude and unfair from them to treat you like that.
But you always have to have some faith ,
confidence and trust in yourself that you are a good person and that you have something special inside you and talents that make you better than her. And you don't have to be like your sister, because your sister is simply showing of ,and she's arrogant and obnoxious and too proud of herself and cares about no one but herself, and no offense meant ,but this is the truth, and this is what proves her actions.So don't waste your time feeling jealous about someone like her,just be your self, and pretend that you don;t have a sister, and if she wants to talk then she's welcome to do that, but you don't wnat anything else from her. And i am sure that you have friends and other people that you know who care about you and love you and think that you are the best and give you all the attention you want.
So if you need any other help or advice, and if you there any further problems, troubles ,worries or concerns, then please be free to contact me. [ Lola's advice column | Ask Lola A Question ]
