The problem is...she is constantly contacting me. She texts me all the time, comments on everything I post on social media (which has led me to quit posting very often) and things like that. If I don't answer she starts texting me incessantly until I answer, and if I continue to ignore her she calls my mom and works her into s frenzy that something must be wrong with me so she will contact me to find out why I'm not responding.

I've told my mom I need space from her becaus it's hard for me to cope with the stress she causes me and her default response is 'oh she just cares about you, you can't cut her off'...and then I get the guilt about moving to Europe and 'leaving her behind'.

So despite my current efforts I can't seem to cut communications, even though I know it's in my best interest.
Oh god. The more and more you talk about your sister, the more I'm reminded about mine...

My sister does the same exact sh*t. Drives me f*cking nuts!

I've sort of handled the situation by giving her 1-word responses in text. For example, she might say, "OMG DID YOU SEE MY POST ON FACEBOOK? ISN'T IT SO CUTE?" then I'll say "yes". Or if she says "WHAT DO YOU THINK OF MY NEW PURSE?" then I'll say "nice".

Pisses her off to no end.
