[quote=Anonymous]It sounds like you want us to tell you that his new man in your sister's life is the cause of all her sudden change. However, it is obvious that this is not the case, betrayed as you may feel, she is no longer that young child your parents made that unwritten deal with to begin the raising of your family together with you. Times change and people definitely change. Especially if you are a young woman growing up in a different world than in which you were born without your parents supporting and encouraging you to develop the skills and goals you want AS YOU GROW and not GROW INTO that which they have already laid out. Your sister sure wanted those things "A big house", "Mom to live with me", and she still wants those things, she is just going to achieve them(or trying to) in a different route than you all had in mind. She probably feels like she is no longer cut out for the long haul and has chosen to enjoy the present or she just wants to live her life for once. When you have such long term goals like you describe not everyone can handle that kind of pressure and day in and day out of working for that which you cant see anymore.

I'm sorry you feel lonely and just cant handle this on your own. I hope you find someone to talk to and can get some help in feeling less betrayed. Now, your choices are clear, you will do your best for yourself and help your family within the means that you can. You cannot sacrifice your life for the well being of other completely. Hope you too find love and companionship. Most people need that kind of support and I hope your family is understanding to both your choices and your sister's. Finding what you truly want isnt such a bad thing. If things turn bad for your sister, she has to face her own consequences and hopefully she has learned a thing or two about making choices.
