[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Can I talk about how my sister dresses like me, has similar hobbies to me and tries to out do me. Some examples. A few years ago I was bored of my non-profit job and I wanted to do something else. After researching, I decided I may way to work in the small tech industry in the DC area. I started interviewing at places and was not much successful. Then I heard that my sister, who was in Sales, suddenly switched a job to tech company in DC...Literally right after I told her about my plans. As luck would have it, she got the job while my interviews did not go anywhere. I got into cooking and baking hardcore and have an instagram food blog. Suddenly she is into cooking. She likes to make 7 course meals over weekends after buying various cookbooks. I have a particular style of dress. Lo and behold, she literally copies my styles head to toe. I am an English major and read classics in school. I am a major architecture and museum buff. I go spend hours visiting old historic homes and museums and it was my dream to get married in one. My sister who is a business major who doesn't know the difference between baroque and beaux arts is suddenly coveting the exact same building for her wedding! WHY? I am so sick of her being a shadow. I need my own life without her copying and outdoing me. [b]Maybe this is in my head. I need an appointment with my therapist.[/b] [/quote] Yes, do this. There’s a lot to untangle in just what you wrote here. Or move far enough away that you’re no longer in each other’s orbit. Maybe it was the rich in-laws’ idea since they’re the ones paying for it. What should she have done, say no because it would offend you? [/quote]
