I am one of ten children, nine of us are alive, four boys and five girls, we we born in this order,,,one girl, five boys.. me...then three younger sisters. Growing up I was made to feel less than my other sisters by my mom who is now deceased, after my older sister and brother left home I had to take care of my older brothers and younger sisters and was taken out of school to go to work at age 13, now as an adult I still feel the same way. I am 50yrs. old and my older sister is 66 yrs. old. Eleven years ago I moved two blocks away from her after she had major surgery to help her, she still has all her faculties but I find myself doing everything she manipulates me to do, she has one lazy son who helps her out with nothing and a no good husband who lives in a different country, yet she would do anything to please them. I usually leave doing things for myself to accomodate her and I am starting to feel like I am falling into the pattern that I had with my mother, where no matter how much I did it was never enough. I just started putting distance between us after coming back from vacation with her because she don't like to travel alone, while on vacation I took her every place I went except for one time when some friends took me to the movies and when I went to get a tire replacement. After returning from the movies she gave me the cold shoulder for two days and told my brother that I went to the movies without her, she was also upset that I didn't take her with me to get the tire replaced, I felt very uncomfortable around her since I was staying in her house when we were on vacation. My other sisters laugh at me and said that in regards to her it's damned if you do and damned if you don't so they just don't do things for her because she is selfish and conniving. I am disliking her more and more every day.
