If you and your sister really were the package deal you would say "hey, sis, what should we do for Christmas? Should we go to family friend's house, boyfriend's house, or do something with just us this year?"

I'm going through something similar with my brother (I'm the one who doesn't want to spend the holidays with him and his girlfriend). The reason is they are extremely toxic and dysfunctional together. I'm not saying that's the case in your situation, but it's something I can and did clearly state to my brother. Have you talked it through a bit? I'd just see if there was something going on there. Maybe she doesn't like how your boyfriend treats you. Maybe someone in the group(s) made an unwanted pass at her. Could be minor. Could be serious. But I'd want to make sure the air was clear with my sibling.


My bf and I are crazy in love.His family is okay, kinda awkward but they have good intentions.

She just says that she doesn't want to be the third wheel. I tell her that it's not like she's accompanying us on a date. There's other people there.



Having been in your sister's position many times in the past, what you are actually inviting her to do is come over and watch you all celebrate. She is basically watching Christmas. Who the hell wants to do that?

Note that OP hasn't revisited the thread in 24hrs. Am thinking she's realized that she hasn't gotten the answers she wanted. Hopefully OP is doing some soul searching on this one, but highly doubtful.
