writes: So I feel in a way jealous of my sister, she's 26 and I'm 22, she's married and has 3 children, I really love children, I work with children. I have no partner though. I really wish I was my sister. I'm a shy person so find it hard to form relationships. Any ideas on how to sort this out? Thanks

There is noting new in one sister being jealous of the other sister.Try and be a little gentle with yourself.Your not really jealouse of your sister-rather what she has .[1]A husband [2]children and so its very human to feel a bit niffit over this-just let it go.Your young,you have a job you love.Would you consider a evening class on a subject that might interest you-generaly there is a mixed group-female/male.Or join a dating-service to find someone with simliar interests.Writers group in your area.Tennis club.In this way you would not feel to shy as you would get to know them as friends.Think of your future life and how to make it better for you.Kinds wishes NORA B.
