My older sister doesn’t like me
I have two older sisters- one lives nearby and the other lives 8 hours away.
The one that lives further away has become more distant to me since I’ve gotten older. She’s a difficult person to get along with, my whole family and others say that. I get on with her in small doses- if we visit for a couple of days. We send each other memes on social media but she never calls me or texts to ask how I am.
I always feel like I have to ask her/ text her first about anything. I know that she calls my other sister and mum. I feel left out. I went to uni near her last year but left and even when I lived an hour away from her I only saw her a handful of times and she never seemed to be happy to visit- it always involved her friends being there- never just me and her. Whenever I see her I feel disappointed after because although she’s my sister- she feels like a stranger sometimes.
Shes never kind, likes to call me “pathetic” because I moved back home after dropping out of uni to find out what else I want to do.
I feel upset at the moment thinking about how we don’t get on anymore.
Does anyone else feel like this with their sister?

I'm so sorry you had to experience this with your sister.
I can't say I fully understand because I've never experienced this ever.
But from my perspective, it honestly feels like she's leading you on (like a dog on a lead). I would say maybe it's time to realise she probably won't care for your much no matter you try to get along with her.
Perhaps it's time to move on and find joy in another person.
Moreover, there will always be the rest of your family here for you!
I wish you all the best!

Hi it seems as if you love your sister very much and it’s not being reciprocated back have you asked her why she does this ? If you have and she just doesn’t care then I would advise you to leave it and let her contact you next time always trying and giving and it not being given back is a heartbreak and just a sadness that I am happy I got thru I hope
It gets better 💙
