My sister just told me she was pregnant and I wasn't excited. She ended up telling my parents that I didn't react happy enough and it's caused a huge family issue now.
She's younger than me and upstages me at everything. She got married a few months after me, and now she's having a baby before me (when my husband and I were trying in the fall, but then I lost my job and so we had to put our plans on hold).
I can't be excited for her because my own emotions on the issue are upset. I'm back to being unemployed, I'm 30 and I wanted to have a baby, but have to wait now. She doesn't want to understand where I'm coming from, she just wants me to be happy and excited.
I feel like horrible person for not caring about her pregnancy. She called me up and told me I ruined everything because I avoided her when she told me she was pregnant. I just want to disappear.
She's afraid that I'm going to keep avoiding her. Unfortunately, because of the yelling and telling me I ruined everything, I want to avoid her and the pregnancy.
I don't know how to deal with this.
