    What a juvenile, jerky and hurtful thing to do. All my life, I've longed for a sister. Seriously, from the time my brother was born when I was 4, I knew I wanted a sister, but I'm an only daughter. (Really my parents' only child. I only have half siblings.) So when I hear of sisters not being supportive, I'm just amazed.

    Ready for some irony? She's my twin.


    Are you smaller than her now?

    Buy your niece a puppy. That'll teach her.

    Haha!! That or something very noisy or messy....bonus points if you can find something that is both!
    Puppy AND drum set.

    And teach the puppy to poop every time she plays the drums!

    lol That explains everything! Sisters can be catty sometimes..trust me I have a younger one. But the fact that she's your twin, maybe she's always thought of herself as the better/prettier/funnier/whatever one. However, now that you're losing weight and maybe have some other positive things going on in your life, she's jealous.

    Just tell her how you feel. When my sister says something negative, I just ask her....and why do you feel like that? What possessed you to do/say something of that nature? Usually she won't have a concrete answer. After a few times of me doing that she just shuts up lol She's beginning to realize that she needs to think before she speaks. lol It works for me!

    Jealous. Jealous. jealous. If she's overweight, she's jealous that your losing weight and she's not. If she's not overweight, she's jealous about the attention your getting and threatened that she won't be seen as the 'skinny one' for much longer.

    Lap it up, don't let her get you down, and carry on making her jealous!!!

    Are you smaller than her now?

    Yep. She outweighs me by about 50 pounds, maybe more.

    Well...there you go. I think you have your answer. Feel good about yourself and just think about how she is acting out because she does not feel good about herself.

    The Playskool Ball Popper toy. Loudest toy ever!! LOL!

    Big hugs, OP. I have had people not acknowledge things and be passive-aggressive and I have KNOWN they were referring to me and it stings. My sister, though, would never do something like that. HUGS to you!

    Don't worry about it. All she proved by posting it on Facebook was to prove to everyone how small and petty she is. She showed her true colors to everyone.

    Thanks for the kind words, everyone. On the plus side, I was so angry this morning I ran an extra long interval at the gym this morning.

    Sounds like her unpleasantness is having positive results! Seriously, she's jealous and lashing out, you should let her get to you. Keep up what works and enjoy yourself.

    Wow.

    I kind of know how you feel. I don't have a good relationship with my sister either. She never asks me how I'm doing, she never reaches out unless she needs something and she has never congratulated me for anything. The straw that broke the camels back was when I got accepted to an amazing and highly competitive business school program and she didn't even acknowledge the news (I saw her a week after acceptance), much less say "congrats." She's too busy being a victim to care about anyone else.

    I used to be really disappointed, but I've decided that there is no sense in hoping for a change. I'm not sure if this is where you are at with your sister, but sometimes you need to just move on for your own health and happiness. I know that if anything dire ever happened to mine, I would be there. But I won't deal with the unnecessary drama and meanness anymore.

    Sounds, like jealousy. Maybe you should ask her to come workout with you. Maybe she needs your help to get where you are.

    There you go!! Use her actions to push yourself in the right direction.

    I suspect that cartoon says a lot more about her than it does about you. So take the attitude "that does not apply to me" (because it doesn't) and carry on.

    I love the idea of subtly getting her back by "innocently" giving your niece something really noisy or messy. haha
