[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. Maybe this is in my head. I need an appointment with my therapist.

Sales to tech sounds more plausible than non-profit to tech, but who knows.  Maybe you gave her the idea?  She's still not the reason you didn't get the jobs.

Everybody cooks.  Especially if this was during the lockdown, 90% of people I know got into baking bread or making elaborate meals.

You were an English major so only you can have a nice venue (which you didn't even use)?  What?  Business majors are supposed to get married in hotel lobbies or nothing else?  And she's not "coveting" the building, she's getting married there.  If anything, you are coveting it.  It was never yours.  You don't own it.

YOU.  SOUND.  NUTS.[/quote]
