I was just on the phone a little bit ago and my sister Jasmine and her friend were talking on the phone and Jasmine said, "Ugh, I hate my sister! She's always listening in my phone calls!". So then, feeling like hell, later I told me my mom. Guess what she said! Well, first Jasmine kept denying it and saying "I did not say it! Niki can't hear very well so she misunderstood!". And my mom belived her! I hate myself!!! Just because I'm kind of deaf, people use me to be mean to me (well mostly my sisters) and then they can lie and say "I didn't say that....Niki just didnt hear me right". I know Jasmine said that on the phone because I had the phone on SPEAKERPHONE and I heard exactly right! My own mom doesn't even believe me!!! Can my sisters torture me ANY worse?!

Sorry, I had to vent....I was feeling hurt more than ever.....and this has been bothering me for about 11 freaking years!!! Who knows, maybe in 10 years one of my sisters will pull up a gun to my head and theaten to give me something....then they'll tell the police, "OMG, we did not threaten her! We were just telling her about our new guns" or something really freaking stupid like that!

So wait...you were upset because you heard your sister say how she hates how you're always listening to her phone calls...when you were listening to one of her phone calls?

well if you were LISTENING IN on her phone calls, then chances are you deserved to hear her rant about you to a friend... you don't eaves drop on phone calls, that's not cool

It's not just that, my sisters are ALWAYS denying what they say to about about me just because I have a hearing aid!

WHY did you go tattle tail on your sister for saying that, when you were sitting there eaves dropping on her phone call? Hearing aid or not, you don't do that... that ain't right.

I know exactly how you feel. I've been both hearing and visually impaired since birth and it sure is hell at times. People can just be so mean to you. The same thing happened to me back when I was in school. Kids would say mean things to me and when I'd tell the teacher, they'd say to her, "Oh, Kristen heard us wrong. We were NOT talking about her!" Then, they'd make fun of me even more. :mad:

Eavesdropping on someone's conversation is impolite though, hearing-impaired or not.

I have to agree with everyone else on this.

You were the one sitting there eavesdropping on her call, so you really have no place to be upset about what she said. You were upset, which is why you told your Mother.

So...I really don't think it's alright to be mad at your Mother for not believing you about something your sister said that she said BECAUSE of what you were doing in the first place...

I know what u mean!


Ok, most of you are missing the point....sorry it's my fault.....I was just giving an EXAMPLE of how it is! Mostly they'll say things TO MY FACE and then lie about saying it!

And yes, I admit it was rude to listen on her phone call. But can u blame me? I'm so freaking jealous of Jasmine that I'd do ANYTHING to be her! She has EVERYTHING! Everyone loves her because she's hot, cute (and our dentist even put up her picture in his office because she's so "cute"), she's popular, has a boyfriend, and everything else perfect u can think of!

Maybe I can be a little bit of help on this subject.

It's obvious what part of the problem is...you're envious of Jasmine! She has everything that you want and wish you could have. I'm guessing she's probably older and you're younger, right?

And all I can say is, don't worry. ^_^ Being the younger one, it's perfectly normal that you would see your older sister and wish you had the kind of life she has. And, more than likely, you can and -will- have it! All you have to do is just believe and think positively.

I'm even willing to bet that if you told Jasmine the way you really feel, she'd probably be pretty flattered and would maybe take you under her wing as kind of a mentor.

And again, don't -worry-! ^_^ I'm sure everything will work out just fine.

ok, look, almost every other thread you start has something to do w/ something else, but it always, somehow, comes around to your sister. Would you just stop obsession over her? Maybe if you'll just ignore her, be happy for her, and leave her be, you'll see htat you yourself can become what you want, become the person you want to be, if you'll stop worrying about what you are not. Your young, you have a LOT more growing up to do, and a lot more living to do. I know your sister is a bitch to you sometimes, but just ignore the little *******. If you'll show her that she has no affect on you, roll your eyes, and laugh at her immaturity, you'll see that you will soon have the upperhand. But most importantly:Chill out!

Well, she's actually younger....by 2 years, but she certainly doesn't act like it! She acts like she's 15 or 20 by all the clothes and makeup she has and how sexy she dresses! It may sound weird, but trust me, it's not. If you saw her or met her, you would even think she is older than me. She is so freaking popular at school that kids call her all the time.....I think she's even planning to have sex sometime soon....according to something I heard!

Yeah, one of my sisters has a perfect life and I'm really jealous, and my other sister is just a jerk 24/7.

Well, thanks for the advice, but its not easy.

probably something you heard from eavesdropping right?

listen, just BUTT OUT OF HER LIFE. If she wants to grow up to be a slutty bitch, then so be it. You talk so bad about her sometimes, andt hen you desperatley want to be her? It's normal to be jealous of your sister, that's just par of the course, but you are borderlining on obsession. Just drop it. Concentrate on being your own person and stop basing your goals on her life. Good grief, she's what, 12 years old? You have way too much in life to look forward to to be weighed down by this unhealthy obsession with being jealous of your sister. Just drop it.

You need to grow up. I know that I'm not exactly the most mature person in the world, but yeah. In ten years none of this is even going to matter. Why don't you listen to ANYTHING that people tell you here?

Yeah, and I wasn't aware at all that your sister's only like 12 years old...

I'm going to say this in the nicest way possible, but this is actually the first time I've heard of an older sibling being so jealous over a younger one...I mean, geez, what is she in sixth grade?

And looking back at the way you described her...I'm sorry, but there's really no way I'd ever be able to classify a 12 year old girl as "hot". Lmao

That's how siblings are. Growing up my sister said horrible things about me simply because we were so completely different. She has always been really outgoing while I've been the complete opposite. Of course she used to make fun of me for it. She used to call me "Lawrence" instead of Lauren because I was sort of a tomboy. And she used to love making fun of the fact that I had a speech impediment growing up. It used to kill me. Now we're both older and more mature and we have a great relationship. All of the things that I said I'd never forgive her for I've basically forgotten about. It's completely irrelevant now. Things will get better between you and your sisters, trust me.

if you'll stop eavesdropping on your sisters PRIVATE conversations (if your sister wanted everyone to hear the conversations, she'd have them on speakerphone) then maybe I'll feel sorry for you, but if you're going to eavesdrop on your sisters phone conversations, then frankly you deserve getting bashed from her because your sister was doing that BECAUSE you're listening to her.

Just let your sister live her own life and mind your own business, I hate my oldest brother so much because he thinks I should be more like him instead of realizing we're different people.

I know how you feel Girl Meets World. I'm going through the same problem.

My older sister makes fun of me because I have a disability aswell. She is a b**** 24/7 to me and she makes my life worse. I have a metrosexual disabillity, people say I am gay, but I'm not gay, I have a crush on KH :D I just act like a girl, it's really hard sometimes :( But it's just who I am, and I have to accept it. She makes my life a hell, she calls me *** all the time, she sides up with the people at school who call me a *** and she punches me when I punch her for calling me names, only 10 times harder! Sometimes I wish I could just STOP THIS between us but I can't, she's going to continue.

I know what your going through, so I can relate. I don't blame you talking bad about your sisters, because I do the same with her, you are not alone trust me, just hang in there, because someday she'll eventually stop, and the jealousy will fade :) I promise.

Niki, you really DO have to focus more on yourself. Trust me, one day you are going to wake up in your 20s and realize what a waste of time it was to ALWAYS focus on those brats' lives instead of yours. Take it from me who's done that with my younger sister in our early 20s. Because of always focusing/being envious of her, I look back and scuff at myself for NOT paying attention to myself. I always took lots of energy on her, her, and more of her. What about me? What about what makes ME happy? I totally regret that. :( Don't end up like me, seriously.

I know adults probably always say this to you (they did to me), but when you get older, you'll end up liking your sisters. I never believed it, but it's actually true. I like my brother SO much more now than I ever did when he lived here, lol. Just wait it out, eventually you'll discover your own talents and you won't be so jealous of your sister.

actually, the older I get, the more I hate my older brother (older by 19 years) and realize just how much he's always had it in for me. I got along with him when I was a kid, then when I was a teen, I was kinda apprehensive about him, as an adult I can't stomach the presence of him and if I die first, really don't want him at my funeral.

what a b-word. You'd think that if she thinks you're gay, she'd be begging you to go shopping with her because you'd have a better eye for fashion. Oh well, women who act like that wind up white trash in a trailer park instead of trying to take advantage of what she'd think would be your taste for style (that is, since she assumes you're gay)

if you want them to like you (and i'm not necessarily saying they don't; i don't know them) just focus on being nice to them. respect their privacy, do them favors, be polite, don't argue with them..don't give them any reason to be mad at you.

just remember that they're just stupid, naive little kids right now, behaving typically for their age, and THEY WILL GROW UP.

i don't think he means it is a disability, i think he just meant that people refer to him as a metrosexual because he isn't gay but they think he acts like he is. that's the impression i got from the post. but the real meaning for metrosexual would mean he is straight but in touch with his feminine side. i know many people who are like that, and they don't get **** for it.

I agree with what others have said about it being wrong to listen in on your sister's conversation. I don't mean to get at you, but I'm just curious, why did you listen in? You're obviously a smart person, so I'm sure you can understand why your sister would be angry with you for listening...I'm guessing you would be if your sisters listened in to your conversations.

But I can see what you're saying, Niki. If your sisters often exploit your hearing difficulties, even when you haven't actually done anything wrong, then that's not right. The thing is, though, sometimes people do tend to use situations to suit their best interests.

I'm sure your sister doesn't "hate" you. The word "hate" is used very loosely nowadays (at least I think so.) People might say they hate a certain singer or an actor, but in most cases (I hope so, anyway) they don't really hate, hate them and wouldn't wish any harm to them. Your sister was probably just expressing annoyance at you listening to her conversations, and she used the word "hate" to get her point across, maybe to emphasise how annoyed she was. But I doubt she really means it. People say a lot of things that they don't mean.

I agree that you should try to stop feeling so jealous of your sister. She may be pretty and popular, and I can understand why you would want to be like that, but why don't you just focus on your own talents and bring out the best of yourself? You get good grades in school, don't you? Why not focus on excelling in school? Maybe you could become the class genius, or something? You could work on your talents, improve them...instead of trying to be like your sister, just be you.
