[quote=Anonymous]Background: I have never had a good relationship with my sister. Around 8 years ago my sister broke up with her boyfriend and I may have told some long distance relatives about it over the phone. Well last year she called me asking why did I tell these relatives her boyfriend kicked her out. I told her it has been 7 years ago I don't remember what I said and why are you bringing this up. She kept pestering me with questions about why did I say this why did I say that so I told her do you expect everyone to remember what they said seven years ago. I'll admit I was flippant but that's how I react when someone annoys me and anyone will be annoyed being around 5 minutes with my sister.

I hadn't had contact with my sister until last month when we went to my cousins wedding. We were at the table with relatives talking and chatting and all and one cousin began talking about how one of his friends is annoying. My sister kept asking him how is this friend annoying, why does that annoy you etc. I then kind of interjected well an example is your being annoying right now pestering your cousin and you annoyed me last year with why did you say this why did you say that etc. She then began asking over and over why did I bring this up I shouldn't have brought it up. I tell her to calm down were at a wedding but that made her angrier. I asked her how was I supposed to know this would offend you and told her to next time write a list of things I'm not allowed to say. Then she kept pestering me with I'm an adult I should know better and she shouldn't have to teach me how to act this isn't the first time I did this etc. Basically she ruined the whole day because I slipped the tongue.

My mom is in the hospital now with serious illness and obviously my sister will be visiting as will I but just don't want to see her. I often slip my tongue and I just don't want to have to walk on eggshells or listen to why I said this why I said that and all, especially dealing with the stress of my mother’s illness. I know it’s inevitable i will see her like for instance in funerals but she is very annoying.[/quote]
