My 29 year old sister cries like a baby...

[Jesse66126 4]

OK,My sister and her boyfriend split up and he kicked her out. So I offered her a place to stay while she got back on her feet.

Anyway,she kept borrowing my computer to check her her facebook,or twitter or whatever.

So,I simply lent her my laptop. After about a month,I needed my laptop back for work and stuff.

So,when she sees the laptop missing she gets really mad and starts crying,calling me an "Indian Giver" and few names I won't say.

I was quite clear that I was just lending her my laptop.

Mom took her side right away and threatened to cut off my monthly support checks. She gives me an extra $100/month to help pay for rent/food/etc.

Dad said I was within my rights to take back the laptop,it is mine after all.

I'm tempted to ask my sister to leave,it's been a lot of trouble having her live with me.

She eats all my food,drinks all my soda,and once a month she...you know...doesn't flush it!

What should I do?

You should defiantly tell her that if she doesn't start acting like a normal human being, that she is out of there.

 

She is stealing from you man.

 

(So are you active again? :rolleyes: I missed you a lot!)

I can't just throw her out in the street. I figured as nice as her bf was,there had to be a good reason he left her.

I'm beginning to see why.

 

(She had my laptop lol. How was I susposed to post? My old desktop can't handle this site anymore. It just freezes and crashes.)

Well if she don't have a job help her in finding one.

After that help her get a place all setup.

Local grocery store is usually a good place to start.

 

 

I don't mind kicking people out of the house. I kicked my step dad out of the house because he gets very loud and argues with everyone when he got drunk. I could see the fear in his eyes when i told him to get the F*** out!

Note: He actually got mean

Sounds rough, and I agree with your dad, it is your laptop and you did say you'd lend it to her, she should remember things like that (also, what's an Indian Giver?) If she is becoming a pain, then just tell her that she's becoming one and should either start acting correctly, or she'll have to live with your parents instead (sounds a bit harsh yes, but the truth always hurts) I also agree with Polraudio, try to help her find a job, something simple for the time being. Besides, tell her there's plenty of fish out in the sea, she'll find another boyfriend soon, just be patient, and maybe learn to treat others like how you want to be treated (You know, respect. Remind her that, and maybe she might start acting better, maybe.....)

Hope everything works out fine.

That is a phrase people sometimes say to people when they are given something, and that person realizes that they wanted\needed it and take it back. This was not the case, but Jesse's sister called him that regardless.

[Jesse66126 4]

She has a job,but I'm pretty sure she spends most of her check on cigarettes and alcohol.

On most days,she's the wisest and most mature person I know. She's very fun to talk to on those days.

That's the sister I thought was moving in with me.

But...Other days she can sleep for 18 hours straight,and go partying all night,then sleep for 18 more hours.

And if I try to scold her even a little,she throws a tantrum.

Taking the computer away from her,she reacted like I killed her cat or something.

[Kiriashi 117]

That's too bad for her. If she's going to learn, then it has to be the hard way. You've got two choices:

 

One: Tell her that if she doesn't act mature, show respect for you (the person giving her a damn place to stay), and your stuff, that she has to leave. It doesn't matter what others say, she is abusing your sympathy, and that's not right. I understand the she is your sister, but kin or not, she is literally stealing.

 

Two: Let your life go on like this, for who knows how long. This obviously isn't much of an option.

 

On a side note, how is IC coming? :rolleyes: And are you here to stay?

[Noob Saibot 38]

She 29 years old and needs to grow up and get over it move on, and buy her own laptop.

[FranklinX 37]

She is too old to be acting like this. She needs to go get a job, and her own place. There is no excuse for her behavior. I know she is your sister, but you need to confront her.

[Kiriashi 117]

And you also need to take that contest banner out of your signature. ^_^

Tell her truthfully that she needs to start actively searching for a job. If she cannot find one, that she either cleans the house, or start looking for another place to stay. She needs to respect your belongings, and your rules under your roof.
