[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If it's been 10 years since you last spoke with your sister how are there so many issues you're still complaining about. The dog? She didn't ask you to do something about it? Then every time you apologize she finds something new? But you haven't spoken in 10 years how many times is all this really happening?[/quote]

She visited me in Arlington, VA ten years ago. That was the last time we spoke. All she had to do was actually communicate with me that my dog was bothering her. I would have asked a neighbor to watch him, or I would have left him at a sitter. That is the last time we spoke.

I've given up. I'm not doing this anymore. [/quote]

Well that was quick. Just a few minutes ago you were genuinely heart broken. Glad you picked yourself up and are moving on.[/quote]

It's a life time of processing grief. It's been 10 years. I feel like I have closure now, where I honestly believed there was something I could do or say or apologize. I think it hurt too much for me to see the truth. My sister never liked me. She never had a choice in whether or not I was brought into her life. I was just born into the family. She was four years older. She was there first. Once my mother died and then my father five years later, she didn't have to pretend anymore. She's free of me, and she's happy. And yes, I can accept that and move on. Because this is her choice, not mine. Because I do love her, and I've said I loved her over and over again, and that I want a relationship with her, it's her choice to not be in my life. That leaves me at peace. [/quote]
