[quote=Anonymous]My husbands brother has become engaged to someone who I used to like a lot. Once  they got engaged, she got weird. Like everything was a competition. 
They recently married and things aren't any better.

Examples:  she came over and asked me where I got my new, rare sofa. Stupidly, I told her. She went out and got all the same family room furniture I did. Including the lamps, Side table, everything. It is ridiculous.

When I got my new car last year, she bought the same one. In the same color. She doesn't even have kids yet she has a minivan like me. EXACT same.

When BIL was proposing, he asked dh how big my ring is. DH told him it is 1.5 carats. BIL went out and got a 1.75 carat ring.
Then, they bought their marital home. It was a nice home. We upgraded our home a few months later as I was pregnant with our third child. Our new home was much bigger. Not a week later, their house was up for sale. They were barely there a few months. Now, they bought a home that is bigger and better than ours.

Exact same honeymoon as us.

Seems everything is a competition, I don't want to play. But it is annoying as I feel she has mental problems.[/quote]
