[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have to wonder if you got some benefit from the thing you did, despite how much it hurt other people, and if she's resenting the fact that you got that benefit and now are telling her not to do it, regardless of how much she might need it too. As I was reading your posts and trying to think of what this choice might be, abortion popped into my mind. If you had an abortion because you were in a tough spot and didn't think you could have the baby, and other people were upset by your decision, I could see why you might tell your sister not to do it if you've now come around to opposing abortion. But from her standpoint, you would have gotten the benefit of not going through pregnancy and having the baby, not actually knowing what the alternative path might have looked like, and are telling her she shouldn't get that same opportunity when you also don't have to bear the burden of her pregnancy and subsequent choices/life. I might be totally off base here, but if what you're talking about is in any way similar in terms of opportunities/trade-offs, maybe think about that side of it. It would make you a little bit of a hypocrite.[/quote]

OP here. no its not that at all. There wasn't really a "benefit" to my decision. I am young enough where I still don't know what will happen to me because of it or whether it was all just a mistake instead of an inconvenient decision.

For her,she is upset because she supported me through out the decision. And I really appreciated it and valued her presence throughout. She is now mad that because she helped me and supported me through it, I am turning to her and saying don't do it. So she feels betrayed, understandably. [/quote]
