But still, I always sense some sort of insecurity on her part and she's constantly comparing with me. I feel like she's trying to beat me constantly, but wth I'm not even running, I don't want to race. I need love and care and loyalty, not competition. Thats the same issue with her and her friends, her friends like me when I meet them, and she hates that. SHe only likes it if it bumps up her social status, but thats as far as it goes.

Distressed,
Do you ever have a quiet moment with your sister that you could mention this to her? Mention that you feel like she always wants to compare to you, but you don't care about any of that stuff. Would you ever be able to tell her honestly "I have been very sad" or ask if there was any way you could truly open up to one another? It may not be possible... this I understand.
