Question - (30 November 2015) 2 Answers - (Newest, 3 December 2015)
A female United Kingdom age 30-35, *indaloo 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

A female reader, anonymous, writes (3 December 2015):

it must look to you as though your sister has it all but she has worked hard to get there.

you are only seeing the happy family face not the reality.

i expect you are a treasured guests and quite possibly the children adore you and it is wonderful to be the treasured guest who gets five minutes of family glow when you arrive.

the truth she has glossed over for you is all the times she had her head down the loo, on her knees with the nausea of morning sickness and the dizziness,retching and vomiting.

she doesnt want to put you off so she is keeping the reality to herself.

then theres the piles,the constant need to pee when the baby presses on the bladder,the restriction to her sex life as she gets increasingly tired, the breasts that want to explode into a bra five sizes bigger and nipples that leak when the baby starts cryitng, the times she is desparate for sleep but cant.

she is so pleased to see you that she brushes it all under the arpet to make you feel welcome and happy when you visit,so admire your sister for the kindness within and dont let envy or jealousy be part of her task.

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.
