I'm sorry, I thought I was done with elementary school
I couldn't be happier that all of the sis wedding drama is over. I am not holding a grudge against loonie bridesmaid, she is not a part of my life, so I give her very little thought. I have chosen never to share with sis the incident that took place here, so I am kinda doing the loon a favour.
Thing is, my sis is obviously of the belief that this loon has shown what a fantabulous *sister* that she can be and my sis never misses an opportunity to rub in my face or make a comment about all the selfless (yeh right) stuff this loon does for sis, how much time they now spend together, how close they are now (she even had that audacity to thank the loon in her wedding speech for "keeping her sane", good lord). I know she does it just to make a point to me (without having th balls to do so directly) that she thinks I am NOT a good/loyal sister. Whatever.
Anyone on my FB will see that she did it again this morning. I am getting tired of it. If the loon was, indeed, a giving, selfless person I could accept it, but she is anything but! And, somewhere, my sis knows it. I know I should just ignore it, but I feel like by sis doing/saying what she does, it's almost an attack on my own character. I just wish that, if sis has something to say to me, she'd just say it and stop being so passive aggressive.
Re: I'm sorry, I thought I was done with elementary school
Yikes, I just checked out your FB. You have done so much for your sister and she's nuts not to acknowledge that. I'm in a similar situation with my brother right now and when he called me the Queen of Calamity as all the drama was going on over the shower last week I wanted to punch him. But, in the long run (in my opinion) punching him won't pay off but working on my character and trying to continue to be a loving sister will.
The loon may not be in her life forever, and there may be a point in time that your sister will actually look back and realize all you've done for her. Not a guarantee but you are sisters and she is the mother of your beautiful nephews.
Would saying anything to her help?
Well I don't know if any of this is useful, but hang in there!
I for one will be in elementary school for ever but that's another situation all together! : )
I hate it when people have unrealistic expectations of us. Because it usually involves no consideration of what your life is like and only benefits them while they put forward minimal effort.
Even if the other BM was a great person this would be annoying in a "OK we get it, can we move on with our lives now?" way.
