She's done it again!

I only have the one sister, but time after time she hurts me.

I've sobbed my heart out tonight ..... yet again. Every time I thought I didn't have another tear left, a whole new batch just streams down my face.

My head aches. My eyes are sore. Will this pain ever end?

Oh, Anne as a sister, I understand your pain far too well. I'm so sorry that you are hurting and I will not attempt to talk you out of it. It always seems like those nearest our hearts are best able to break them.

Hello dear Anne~ I feel so bad for you. Seems like your feeings just keep getting hurt and that saddens me.. Has your Sis gone back home from her DD's yet??

Don't think it is you, b/c it isn't. I hope one day SOON she will wake up and see what she is missing in not having you in her life on a regular basis. It is her loss, but I know how much you wish she would "wake up and smell the coffee".

I have a great Sis, Anne~~ but by golly, I wish I was yours too!

No more tears Anne..... Smile right now.. Don't make me do something really DM'ish to make you smile..

I care alot about you....... take care my Aussie friend.

I'm sorry Anne that you are hurting right now. It always seems the people closest to you hurt you the most.

I too hope she wakes up one day and realizes that life is too short and family is so very important.

Take care of yourself. I will be thinking of you

I'm sorry to hear that you have a sister who hurts you also. My sister hurts me very deeply. I don't know why this happens to some of us. I just know that it happens. I'm sorry that it has happened to you. I understand. Brokenfriend

By family I mean the one I was born into. My DH, my DD and my 2 DSS are all loving and supportive towards me, but I wonder sometimes why my sister seems to make it her life's ambition to hurt me as often and as badly as she possibly can.

I am the only sister she has. Our parents both died nearly 30 years ago, and our older brother died last month, but still she never stops. I know it's a "Power" thing because she is a controlling type of person, but it doesn't ease my pain just knowing what she's like.

There will come a day, and probably soon, where I say that I no longer have a sister and I cut all contact with her. There's only so much pain one person can take.

I know how painful this has been for you, Anne. I do wish your Sis would wake up and see what a loving, kind Sister you are. It's her loss, but I know that doesn't make you feel any better. I pray she will come to her senses.

I wish I was your Sis!

Thank you DM, thank you Shiney Sue, and thank you BF as well. Your kind words mean so much to me.

I always know that if I come here in tears, I leave knowing that some of the pain in my heart has lifted because my online family have all put their arms around me and given me the support that I crave in times like I've described.

Thank you.

I really know how you feel. My sister (although I have 3), the one I am closest with is my older sister who is just 15mnths older than me. She just doesn't "get" it. The Get over ittype.

I have Major Depressive Disorder and PTSD. At times I get really down and want to talk with her about it, but there is no use. Not that I wish this illness on anyone, I just wish some could have a respective view of it.

Keep your head up...
