Anyone else not on great terms with "Sis?"
My sister is an insensitive, narcissitic, self centered, controlling megabitch.

Not only has she made it "subtly" clear through sarcasm and attitude that values no opinion but HERS (she drove her first husband away after 15 years of browbeating: a VERY patient man, that. REALLY.), but NOW with my mother halucinating in the hospital for 4 weeks now post hip surgery, she is exercising a 15 YEAR OLD DURABLE POWER OF ATTORNEY she had when Mom got a face lift, and has "forgotten"-neglected-declined what have you to have my name put on the Medical Decision/information list. I have to go through HER to even get information on her condition. They won't even talk to me on the phone.

I won't even start on the Money issues, as I will get too angry to type.

Your sister can be a friend and ally or your worst nightmare; please wake me up.

1. Wow, my sister has a double!
--insensitive, narcissitic, self centered, controlling... and I couldn't get info about my mother in the hospital, while Sis couldn't be bothered to leave a wedding weekend 30 miles away! How bout this: when mom died, Sis had her housekeeper call me to inform me, because "she was too upset".

Oh yes. So charming to be related to one of these, isn't it?

2. Don't you know it: AND ON TOP OF IT ALL...
The boss just bitched me out big time for "Personal Calls" while trying to get the bitchgoddess on the phone during "her" lunch.

And wimpo little brother was defending her ass.

3. YEAAAGGGHHH!
Wimpo brother called her to whine. Sis denies having heard/said/anything about meeting in person, denies me telling her about being closed out of the loop.....

PLEASE just let me go to Canada and say ADIOS MOTHERFUCKER to these assholes!

4. well, wimpo little sister here is finished with big sis, finally
Dad's dead, Mom's dead, and I don't expect to talk to my sister ever again. Unless she calls because she wants something, which wouldn't surprise me. Except she could call asking for a kidney and I'll just say Sorry, wrong number.

It's a terrible and sad feeling, to feel so bitter about your close family, but you've got to take care of yourself, Tyler. These people are manipulative and cold, although they have incredibly warm regard for themselves, don't they. You'll never get through to them, I know because I tried countless times. They take what you give as their due, but If you need something, they're too busy. You've got to give up the dream that blood means anything, at least to them.

Hang in there.

8. Glad I'm not alone.
Mine is a rabid fundie... it's HER WAY or the highway cuz her diety speaks to her real personal-like tells her SHE is infallible. 5 years ago we had an encounter that made it clear to me there was NO REASON to interact with her further AT ALL. NONE.

7. I'm not on great terms with "Bro"
He says he loves me, but never, ever, ever, ever calls because he "hates to talk on the phone." Never a birthday card, never a Christmas card, never any sign that he knows I'm alive. I've tried to have a relationship with him, but he seems to find his wife's family more worthy of his time than his blood family. I sent him a law school graduation announcement, stupidly, and am quite positive I'll receive no response. He didn't even go to my high school graduation because the lure of the fishing pole was too great.

11. My brother and I get along great because...
he lives in Tenn and I live in Ohio, rarely see each other and only communicate when necessary. I always say you can pick your friends but not your family!

14. Nerve struck nerve struck!!!!
My sister is a born again, narrow-minded freeper who has dual citizenship in the USA & Canada. She got herself a ballot from MA so she could vote for Bush and she hasn't lived in the states for over 25 years.

I just realized a few weeks ago that she will not speak to me because I voted for Kerry. For someone who used to be cool and half of her "best" friends were gay, she has become a gay hating bitch on wheels. If she never talks to me again it will be way too soon.
