Does your sister ever get on your last nerves?

My two sisters would ask for my opinion on things and they would almost always pick the opposite of what I say. Sometimes I think why bother to ask me if you are not going to value my opinion anyways. They ask me questions like should I get A or B for such and such. I would say B then they go and buy A or vise versa. They would Jane Doe said this to me should I tell her to buzz off. I would say yeah don't hang around pessimistic and depressed people who drag you down. Then she goes and hangs out with Jane Doe all week long and what happens-she herself becomes depress. Gosh, sometimes they drive me up the wall. Is this just me or does it happen to you too?

My elder sister is the complete opposite of me! We share different likes and dislikes. What I like, she hates. What I hate, she likes. Because of this, it is so hard to get along with my sister. We have different attitudes and being with her just makes me uncomfortable. Do you know that feeling when your friend or someone tells you that your sister is different than you? That she is better in this or that? That why can't I be like her? That how come you are this, and she is that? It is too annoying and frustrating! I know I am not perfect and neither is she. We may be related but that doesn't mean we should have similar characteristics. Why does she have to be better at everything?

I know she is not perfect and I know I am better at some other things. It is just that she always correct me when I am wrong but when she is the one who made a mistake, I have no "authority" to tell her that she is wrong. That is just too frustrating! Before, I sometimes tell my mom about her but she always say that she is older and she knows better. These days, I just let it be. It's better if I don't complain.

I am the youngest, and mostly, i was the one who gets into my "elders" nerves. lol But sometimes, i also gets irritated with them. Especially if they bombarded me with so may commands. Or they gives me so much tasks that i can no longer performs.

Tasks that you can no longer perform or tasks that you no longer want to perform in lol. My sisters when I asked them to clean the toilet they use to do it because it's one of our tasks we take turns. But man these days we are grown yes but they no longer want to do it. Not cause they can not but rather they would not lol.

Being the eldest in the family, it happened to me many times already. Right now the one that really gets to my nerve is our youngest sister. I have six sisters in all but so far she's the one that stood out among them. I live on my own already so i don't spend much time with her anymore other than on weekends and holidays. Everytime i'm in my parent's house they would all talk about her. Like she sleeps and wakes up very late. She doesn't fix her bed, wash the plates she'd eaten and wash her own clothes. she doesn't help in the chores and just let our mother do it all. I even heard sometimes its our mother that washes her undies. To think that she's already 19 years old? That one really pissed me off. I told my mother not to wash her undies anymore but rather throw it in the garbage can should my sister leave it again unwashed. Sometimes i wish i can stay with them so i could do the disciplining of her. She's just damn lucky i couldn't do so because of my present job. Grrrr!

Wow, a large family. I wanted a large family too. But financially I can only afford two to three right now. We might work for a third child in two years. We want to be able to save $$ money to pay for their college. Man the price of college is a killer these days. I thought it was bad when I went but my goodness. Your sister sounds like me haha. I use to sleep very late and don't fix my bed either. I do clean up though. I guess I get on my sisters nerve to for leaving messes. I use to make them do chores but I end up doing most of them. Yeah, even washing their undies too. But if she is 19 she should do her chores. Thank you for your post.
