Vent post.

I still severely dislike my sister's BF.  Even more after yesterday.  They had plans of going out to dinner...then decided to just eat at my parents-whatever my Dad was making.  Dislike.  They rarely go out to dinner when he comes in town.  They always just hang out at my parents house, and eat what they are making for dinner that night.  When they do go out, I have a feeling my sister pays for their dinner.  Call me old fashioned, but hello the dude needs to take her on a date!  Vent over.

  • That's annoying.  Does your sister seem to care?  Or do your parents care?

    I dont think she even realizes it.  I think she's blinded by love!

    My parents dislike him even more than I do, and they dont like at all that he rarely takes her out and lounges on their couch when he does get here.  They dont like being around him. 

    I mentioned to my sister a while ago, that I dont think her BF treats her like she should be treated- she snapped back at me with "Whatever, everyone seems to hate him anyways."  Yup, pretty much.  (I didnt say anything back).  

    I wish she could meet someone that treats her right. 

  • When I dated someone my parents hated, they always made me too busy to hang out when he would come over.  I would have to help with chores or run errands with my parents.  Neither he nor I got the hint.  Finally, my mom and bff sat me down and told me that he was not welcome or allowed at their house anymore.

    Could your family do something like that?

    A few weeks ago, my Dad was going to sit down with my sister to talk to her about the BF but I think my Dad chickened out.  THey are worried if they do that she would run off, move out and to live with him in the next state.

    How old were you when this happened? 

  • I was in high school when that happened.

    I forgot your sister is an adult

    Yeah :(  She still lives at home and is 28 (she graduates form college this June).  

  • I know as much as you guys hate it, it might be best for her to figure it out and fail. Sometimes it takes disappointment and failure for someone to get it. Hopefully she will figure it out before she gets too hurt, but she may have to get hurt to see it.
