My sister is an entitled Beotch

[Deleted]

I get a text from her asking me to pay a phone bill for her. Her phone was cut off this morning and she paid half of it and the remainder is 230 dollars. She wants me to pay it in two months. I have Oliver's vet bills still to pay off and I'm living on peanuts and I'm not touching my small amount of savings.

So since she has more bills and debt than I have that means I should pay her bills as well? (ETA:Because apparently you should form complete sentences that make sense.)

I said I can't and I'm sorry. She went on a spiel about how I said I would help her out and she has more bills than I do and she works 45 hours a week and doesn't have this kind of money. She starts in on the low blows. I swear to god if she wasn't my sister then I would never say a word. It's been hell dealing with her about my dad.

She's an undiagnosed, untreated bipolar. All of my siblings agree and so does my mom. She wonders why I do not seek a relationship with her. I am just ready to explode. Between this, work being crazy, and my STBXH trying to booty call me I can't handle this much stupidity.

Please tell me your crazy sibling stories.

ETA: Two weeks, not two months to pay it. I was seeing red when I wrote this.

Nope, I can't top that. She's an asshole, and I'd stop answering the phone. Why should you have to pay any bills beyond what you (and maybe your spouse) incur? If you pay, you simply enable her. I'd try as hard as I could to cut all ties.

My only sibling crazy is that I'm excited for my pregnant little sister. I love that I get to live vicariously since I don't think I'll ever have kids. Also, I'm taking a small amount of delight in that she's only 12 weeks and is very visibly showing already. I feel bad for her, but I'm still laughing.

I can't top that either. Sorry your dealing with it on top of everything else.

Thankfully I get along with all my siblings for the most part and they haven't gone crazy yet...

Since my dad had his stroke two months ago she has asked me to pay her bills/ give her cash like three or four times. It's because my dad was paying half her rent and also her phone bill. Now she is after my mom. My mom is having to foreclose on her/my dad's house because my dad can't pay his portion and their divorce property agreement hasn't been decided upon yet.

I wanted to tell her to go back to stripping but I try not to resort to low blows.

Everyone thinks my sister got pregnant on purpose because I was getting married. Then she doesnt take care of her kid, my mom does. When i confronted her about it she tried to punch me Jerry Springer style (I think she was on something that day).

Sorry your dealing with that.

[brandienee]

That is tough, but stick to your guns. She doesn't deserve your (Or your Dad's, for that matter) hard earned money.

[prettyinpink]

Stick to your guns L. If she can't afford her phone bill she needs to get a prepaid phone and only use the minutes she can afford to pay for. If she can't afford her rent she needs to get a second job or find a new place to live. You are a sweet person L and a giving one to boot! But you need to take care of you and be the most important person in your life right now. Hugs.

My own siblings are awesome, but H's oldest brother is fucking nuts.

BIL got addicted to coke and heroin. Started stealing shit from H's parents and siblings to pawn for drug money (including Christmas presents, family jewelry, power tools). Drove MIL's SUV around wasted. Asked her for money, she gave him her ATM card to take out $20- he took $600 and disappeared for 2 weeks. After FIL kicked him out he wrote down that ILs would vouch for him on payday loans, and then he used said money on drugs and did not pay them back. Ended up going to jail for not paying those loans back.

Now he is out of jail and MIL is trying to act like everything is normal. She's the kind of person that insists that since someone is family you have to help them even though they constantly fuck you over. Yeah, no. Both H and I avoid all contact with him.

You win. The worst things my sister spends money on is vodka, tanning, and fake nails.

My brother is hardly talking to me because he is jealous that my mom was alive for my wedding and isn't for his. Oh the joys of having siblings.

[Deleted]

Oh and my sister adopted a dog on Friday. And took a trip this weekend. WTMF. I'm trying really hard to let this go. I just got off the phone with my mom and my sister was visiting and went to a street fest in our hometown. She lives three hours away from said hometown and drives a gas guzzler.

This only confirms that I am not the bad guy in this situation.

[prettyinpink]

Stick to your guns L! If she can afford to get a dog and go on a trip then she can pay her bills, its just easier to let you do it. DON'T!

[Beeps (WOT?*)]

This, a thousand times over.

My middle sister kept my grandmother's wedding set instead of giving it to my dad (grandmother's only son.) She insists it was what grandma wanted but nowhere in any documents or anywhere else was it stated; her son got a 1.5 carat center stone for his now-wife's engagement ring and her daughter has the setting. I got the pearls, diamond heart and diamond studs. Would have been nice to have been able to choose what I wanted from the jewelry. Just like it would have been nice to choose what I wanted from my grandma's house instead of them deciding. Every time we've discussed it, there was rationalization and "grandma wanted me to have these" and "dad would have lost them or sold them or his wife would have given them to her daughter and we wouldn't have them" (notice a pattern here?) and "maybe if you'd spent more time with grandma..." And they wonder why I get upset when they trot out the "we're the three musketeers" routine.

Youngest sister tried to dognap my dad's and his wife's dog when wife was admitted to the hospital and dad needed to be put in a skilled nursing facility. When she asked me when she should come to get the dog I told her it was taken care of (SM didn't want her to have the dog, she wanted *her* daughter to take care of it. Sister and SM do NOT get along; sister has been pressuring her for inheritance, getting SM to get her house back from brother who bought it, etc. Lots of animosity from Little Miss Christian Church Secretary and Wife of Youth and Music Minister.) She screamed at me "how could I do this to her" and she "promised her daughter they'd take care of the dog." (not her dog and not her place to promise and I spent the entire week telling her this and she'd only argue back that it wasn't dad's wife's place; um, yes it is and SM was *adamant* that she not get the dog) and "it was dad's dog and not his wife's and she has no business." When I stopped by her house to drop off some stuff my other sister left, she refused to come out of the house or talk to me. When I came to visit the year prior (the first time she saw me since grandma had died two years earlier and the second or third time in more than ten years) she couldn't even bother to drive the 15 miles to my dad's house to visit me while I cared for him. I had to take time off to drive to her house and she spent less than an hour while she fixed lunch for her kids and then shooed me out so they could take her husband to the movies (matinee) for his "birthday weekend." They celebrate his birthday the entire weekend. She sees me once every five or so years and can't spend an afternoon.

When they met DH for the first time, middle sis said 'I can't believe we've never met you before, that you've never come out to meet us." His response was "Phones work both ways and planes fly to Cleveland, too. I haven't seen you at our door or heard our phone ringing either." I never knew she even said this but judging from some of her recent comments about how I can forgive myself and how I'd changed since I took the time to fly out to take care of dad for almost two weeks... to DH for that one.

This is why there are only two Musketeers despite what they want to believe (when it's convenient to need the third one.) My sisters are Christian Bitches.

I have a feeling we won't be speaking much now that dad and SM have both passed. When mom is gone there will be nothing and no reason to talk.

[marynjoe]

Hell no. You have no obligation to keep enabling her behavior when she's obviously not going to change it and doesn't want to. Time for her to grow up and take care of herself.
