[quote=Anonymous]I had a friend like this and eventually we drifted, even though we knew each other since we were young.

She called my house "cute" (as in little), she spent so much time talking about how once she bought her first home she threw away a of her Ikea stuff (in response to me buying Ikea). We used to travel together, but eventually she had to fly first class and stay in suites, while I was happy with a cheap red eye and a holiday inn. Celebratory dinners for her cost 200+ per head, and I was splurging for 150 total. She wouldn't bring herself down to my level and I could push myself to hers.

It took me a while to realize it was her and not me. I made down to earth "DC poor" friends, who liked Groupon dinners and long walks at Target. I needed to realize that the problem was her attitude and not my combined HHI of 175k.

I know it's different because it's your sister, but stand up for yourself tell her how it makes you feel when she insults the very nice life your have built for yourself. Ultimately though, it's up to you to move past the jealousy since you likely will not be able to change her.[/quote]
