[quote=Anonymous]OP, I am so sorry. Sister relationships are hard. How old are you? Being new in town during this time was probably really odd. Start building your own network. The good thing is that DC is a city filled with transplants, so you will be able to find friends if you just get out there. I always tell newcomers to consider the Junior League. It is filled with women who are eager to volunteer, make friends and do social stuff. It might be exactly what you need to find some friends. Your sister is probable overwhelmed by managing life and kids. Adding another person into the mix who is always there and feels like they NEED her is probably driving a mom of young kids nuts. I have had similar feelings about a younger relative of mine who lives locally. I'm glad I read your post because it is helping me to frame her perceived neediness better. Don't give up on your sister. Give her some space and try to branch out a bit. You can do it![/quote]
