I swear, you must be talking about my oldest sister!! She tormented me from the time I was born. She's 7 years older than me, and she's hated me from the beginning. And I'm not even the "baby" of the family. I'm the 3rd born out of 4.
She blamed everything on me - not on any of the other sisters - just me. And of course I got the punishment for things that SHE did. My parents coddled her because she was a sickly baby -- well so WHAT? She got OVER it!! Sheesh. She left home at 18 and moved across country. Each time she came home, she'd start something with me, but my Mom NEVER saw it. Naturally, my Mom would get mad at ME.
When she came home 7 years ago when my Mom died, she was in her 60's ~ you'd think by that age, she'd be done with this nonsense -- NOPE. She started right in on me to the point that my kids even got mad. I had to make her leave my home.
Recently after a sickenly sweet letter from her, I wrote her and told her that I didn't like her years before, and i don't like her now - do NOT contact me anymore!!! And what does she do?? She calls me to get a phone number!!! ARRRGGGHHH! And she had to make a stinking remark about my housekeeping. I want to KILL HER.
I wish I knew what to tell you -- If I were you I'd just be HONEST with her -- get your feelings out because they're going to eat you up. If you don't like her, tell her. And if people say something to you, just say you two don't get along. There is NO SHAME in that. That's what I tell people. Everyone has a skeleton in their closet. Maybe others will say you should handle it differently -- but if you want to feel better, I'd just be honest with her. It sure made ME feel better. Best of luck & God bless. Hugs, Lee
