Would this annoy you? Sister related.

[Anonymous]

My 52 year old sister seems to think she is really hot. She isn't.
She constantly sends me selfies of her in various dresses and of her working out. I have never taken or sent a selfie.
So, today she sends me one of her in a sexy dress telling me how she rocked the dress and had four guys compliment her on how she looked amazing in the dress. She has been married since her twenties.

I am not jealous, she looks just fine. But really nothing out of the ordinary. I find her contact emails of her telling me how hot she is annoying.
Would this annoy you?

Also, she sends me daily updates of her weight.
She even sends me a picture of her weight in a graph over the last week.
Then she sends emails saying, I'm 162.7 lbs, up .4 lbs. OMG.

It's annoying.

If she knows you look, you haven't taken a strong-enough position that this does not interest you.

Yes, it would annoy me.

I'm 47 and the social media bug didn't "catch" me. I'm just old enough where the appeal of it alludes me.

My sister is 42 and she's more like your sis, but as extreme. She is a social media junkie, and there's a new selfie every other day. There are 7-8 posts every day about nothing. That in itself annoys me. So yes, your sister would drive me nuts.

I don't do social media. She actually emails me the pictures.

It's in emails from her. When I open the email it's there.

It sounds like she's asking you, not telling you. She deeply needs your approval.

Yes, this would annoy the hell out of me. And unless she is 6 feet tall, that weight is far from hot, even without the .4 lbs she is OMG'ing about. It was most likely time to OMG about 20 pounds ago. Sadly your best bet is to vent here. She sounds like the type to think you are jealous if you bother to call her out. You can't win.

You are right.
She is 5 feet 7 and she used to be 188lbs so she lost weight and thinks she is super thin now.
She definitely would think I'm jealous.

That's what my husband said. I didn't think so because she seems so sure she is hot.

So would you limit emails / contact?
It's a daily thing.

She's not used to men hitting on her. It's a new experience for her and it's exciting. Try to be supportive.

[Anonymous]

She has serious issues. Try to be kind.

[Anonymous]

It costs you nothing to vaguely be kind, and then try to move on to real things:

"Sounds like you had a fun weekend! Love the dress! How are you? Are you planning to go to Aunt Edna's for Easter?"

[Anonymous]

She sounds really insecure. If she's not texting you real info you need (Mom's in the hospital; I'll meet you at 3pm,etc) then just stop reading her texts. It'd drive me nuts.
