[QUOTE="mstang67chic, post: 264792, member: 2459"] Why? Because she's your sister and you love her. Whack job that she is, she's still someone that you've grown up with and know better than almost every single person on the planet save the rest of your family. Of course you miss her! But, as much as it hurts, you just have to keep reminding yourself of how she treats you, what she does and how she affects your life. From what you've stated here, the negative about her far outweighs the positive she has. Does that mean that you have to cease ALL contact? Not at all. If you still want to do things for her, as sisters do, you can still do it. It just would have to be annonymously or through your family, if they can keep a secret. (And, if you think it would work, I would have a nice chat with your brother and tell him what happened. That's [B][U]only [/U][/B]if you think he would believe you. Otherwise, I wouldn't even go there with him) Anyway, what I mean is, if you see something while you're out and about that you know she would like and you want to get it for her, do it. Just send it to her secretly or in a round about way. Sisters do that kind of thing for each other. Otherwise, you will just have to steel yourself to committing to no contact. Obviously, you'll still be able to keep tabs on her through the rest of the family so it's not like you'll never ever know what's going on with her. But for the safety and well being of your family and yourself, it doesn't sound like you can have a direct relationship with her. I know it must hurt like the blazes and I'm sorry you have to do that. But, it sounds like the healthiest thing to do for all involved. HUGS [/QUOTE]
