You can be fed up with, by or about her hon! It's not worth making a scene over but I understand totally how you feel! I have a sister who can be just as irritating (in different ways) but it really is better most of the time to bite your lip, say nothing and smile. As long as you get it out of your system somewhere along the line by talking to us for instance then that should improve it!

Not bringing anything is just plain rude! If we go to my sisters or my mum & dad's for a meal/evening etc then we always take some wine. It's just the polite thing to do, even if they are your family.

Boogs - are you still out there?

It feels like I shouldn't be fed up, because she's a relative. But still... I know I will have to do a big effort to bite my lip and don't say a thing. I know myself and I'll probably slip something out. I'm trying to get it out of my system by nagging to you guys about it and looking at verrrrrry funny youtube vids (I'll put one in here on the bottom of my message)

It is rude, that's what I think too. If I'm invited somewhere I always bring something with me, even if it's just flowers!

I think I scared Boogs off

and now, the youtube:

a friend just sent it to me to cheer my up I think : D It's very funny!!! I've looked at a couple of other vids too, pretty funny those cats!

I love my sister, but I don't want her to 'intrude' (I was going to say butt in, but not sure if it suits over here) the way she's doing now. My MIL mentioned it before we have a very strange relationship and that's true. One moment we get along really good, but now I've seen her too much, she's been too pushy and I've had it for a bit. Plus, it feels like she doesn't take into account that I have the study while she has 2 weeks off (she had exams earlier). I don't know what to write or say anymore to get it out of my system, but I am going to turn my cell off, because I still feel like texting her that we made plans already and that's she's interfering our evening and the least she could do is bring something along... But when I turn off my cell, I am going to think twice when I would turn it back on to text her.

armellproctor wrote:

I'm quite alright lol, just a bit fed up with my sister - we made plans (parents, brother and me) for tomorrow eve, to celebrate amongst the 4 of us and now my sister invited herself and her BF again - so parents have to get more food tomorrow (they did the shopping already). But besides that, I'm okay

bogie wrote:

True what you say, but the staying cool part is way too hard for me. Either I'm going to ignore her - she will notice or burst out and ruin the entire evening. So I'm trying to get it out right now so I won't ruin things tomorrow. But I AM going to say something about it. She really has to learn to know she's way too pushy these days. (she even texts me when I am studying with the most idiotic things and complete nonsense, so I had to turn my cell off too - no one could reach me because she was annoying me - and didn't understand why I ignored her texts)

I know how it can be, with a sister and brother of my own, we all get alone but can also fall out.

To save problems tomorrow I would call her now, not to argue, but to let her know how she makes you feel about it all.

BUT THATS WHAT I WOULD DO WITH MY SISTER OR BROTHER IN THIS SITUATION SO JUST IGNORE ME!! as I do not know how you or she would react to that

I was thinking about that too, but I think I'm just going to ignore it, and make the best of it, but still point out she's intruding and that we think it's not nice of her to invite herself. If you would tell me what's wrong, I would try to understand and try to talk about it, but my sister is completely different - think if I'd call her right now and tell her what's wrong, she wouldn't show up and probably won't talk to me anymore.

Never be sorry Thats what your online friends are for

It is a tought one to deal with and she seems very overpowering on you all. Keep your head high and rise above it all and when its over find a way to let her know your feelings about it.

Hey Cogsy!
I'm sorry I didn't say anything before, trying to cool down a bit lol
but feeling a bit better now
How are you?

I know that once I get started, I can write very long messages. A lot of people have told me how long e mails I can write. So all I want to say is that if it bothers, please let me know!

She's very difficult and emotional, not to mention I am emotional too, but I try to rationalize a lot too, plus she takes everything personally when we don't mean it that way. So she's very difficult to tell her your opinion. I am feeling a bit better now - at least cooled down a bit and am going to try to make the best of it.

Thanks guys for listening (/ reading)

Looking after grandchildren is a pleasure but is still hard work

Does he like the school dinners? although they are far better now than when I was a kid!

@ Armell. When I worked I made my oh a lunchbox, after my 3rd child I buy it he makes it rofl xx you are very good to him, he better appreciate it

@ boo. As soon as I have a pic I will send it so have your mobile at hand

@ copsy. how are you?

hope I did not miss anyone, still trying to get used to this forum

Hi Boogs, I'm good thanks, and hope you are too

when i worked i made it for him too, and yes he does appreciate it ,

I am quite lucky although I dont work (except for looking after the grandchildren) OH is a teacher and has his meal at school.

Looking after grandchildren is a pleasure but is still hard work

Does he like the school dinners? although they are far better now than when I was a kid!

Never be sorry Thats what your online friends are for

It is a tought one to deal with and she seems very overpowering on you all. Keep your head high and rise above it all and when its over find a way to let her know your feelings about it.

I know that once I get started, I can write very long messages. A lot of people have told me how long e mails I can write. So all I want to say is that if it bothers, please let me know!

She's very difficult and emotional, not to mention I am emotional too, but I try to rationalize a lot too, plus she takes everything personally when we don't mean it that way. So she's very difficult to tell her your opinion. I am feeling a bit better now - at least cooled down a bit and am going to try to make the best of it.

Thanks guys for listening (/ reading)

I hope it all turns out good, with the least irritation for you

It is hard sometimes looking after the little ones (10 months & 7 months) but yes so rewarding. OH has baked potato most days as we are still dieting. But that has gone to the wall this week, dreading weigh in next Tuesday, but will get back on the straight and narrow as soon as he is back t work.
