Jealisy rises + treated like crap, when sis homecominf


Question Posted Thursday July 10 2008, 12:42 pm

I have a sister who is in college. In a close state. She is really into fashion. So is my mom. When she comes home, my mom actes like I am a piece of poop! They have something in common, shopping. So I am forced to go to these 'shopping' trips. I do not like to go shopping, unless I am with my bestfriend. I hate baithing suit shopping everything else. It tires me out soooo easily. If I do not go I will be criticized by my sis. I used to look foward to her homecoming. She sucks out ALL the attention. She makes me treated like crap. And when I try to say something in deffense, I will for a fact be yelled at. No one understands. I tryed to tell my mom when my sister went back to college but she still yelled. My mom acts very takky when around my sis. What should I do for my sisters next homecoming?

I don't like shopping either, so I can certainly relate to your situation.

Tell them you are going to allow them quality Mom-Daughter time without you because you don't like to shop and they do, but offer to do something else with your sis such as a movie, out to dinner etc. Maybe by offering an alternative way to spend time together will get your Mom to see that you are really trying to get along and compromise. In fact if you could set up something before your sister comes home that would be best, so that way your intentions are clear.

Seems like your basically stuck in a no option. But, just try to make the best of what you can. If it means putting up with everything then you might have to do things you don't like to do. Another thing you can do is try to get yourself out of it by either asking if you can just stay home or planning something with a friend that gets you away from it.


If your sister tries to criticize you, ignore it. Just turn your back and walk away, because not only is it saying you've had enough but it will also get to her that your not affected by her criticism. Eventually and hopefully she'll just give up on it or try to make right, though I can't really make promises on that. Your mom, on the other hand, you'll have to just go along with. Not much you can do about her, shes your mom.
