Hello, knock123. Yes, it is really unfortunate your sister appears to be following in your father's footsteps.

You love your dad and your sister and you don't want to hurt them by betraying them to their partners, but the truth is that what they are doing is WRONG and UNFAIR and if you have the ability to stop them and your conscience tells you that you should, there's nothing else for it. You should. However, if you can't help and if what you say will make no change, imho the best thing you can do is to learn not to care, which of course is not easy :s

It sounds to me like you are spending too much energy and emotion on your father and sister's lives instead of your own. Work on getting a job and moving out again and running your own life. Other people make their own choices and they're often not ours and we often don't agree with them but we can tell them that we don't agree but that's about it. It's their lives!

Your dad has major boundary issues. I agree with Perna, get some money together, and find your own place. Tell your dad to not discuss this with you again.

i have to agree that your father crossed a boundary talking to you about his issues. but since that line was crossed i suppose you could always talk to your father about how you feel about the situation and how you see it affecting your sister. after you get it all out in the open it is up to him to take care of his business and also to try and help your sister. it will be out of your hands. i also agree that getting back out on your own will help. being supportive to family while not being in the midst is easier and healthier. it will give you time and space to focus on you and then you can decide how much you want to concern yourself with the father and sisters situation.
