[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here.

I was thinking of this recently as time has gone on, I feel less connected to my sister. She has become different and I can see how slowly we see the world differently.

I have to skimp and save to to afford luxuries that just fall into her lap casually.

DH and I work hard and do pretty well now. We have to rent a nice beach house in OBX while her in laws have a house she has access to.
Buying furniture is a big investment for us while her DH's family and grandparents randomly buy them couches, tables and help furnish their home. 
She just doesn't really know what its like to live within a budget or pay for something for herself.

It makes me a bit sad that I'm losing a connection with her, and also jealous that her life is such a breeze and all she did was get married!

You’re losing your connection *because* of your jealousy. It’s too bad that you can only see connection with a sibling via the shared experience of the price of a couch.

She’s not so much leaving you behind, rather, you seem determined to drown in the quicksand. [/quote]
