My sister ignors me, now that she has a boyfriend.

My sister just got her first boyfriend, and now she ignors me.
She'll be on the phone with him saying nothing, and as soon as I walk in the room, she leaves.
Is this normal??

We used to be like best friends. There wasn't one person in the world who we would rather spend time with.
Now I'm uncomfortable being around her.

He's an alright guy, but he bugs the heck out of me.
Cause all these stupid girls like him. So he thinks he's all that.

It's my first time dealing with this kinda stuff with her.
Any advice??

    I have the same problem. My sister doesn't pay me any attention, it's like I lost my best friend to her boyfriend.

    my sister is 19 years old and is at university. she's recently has got a new boyfriend who I particully don't like and who lives very local. She started talking to him about a month ago and I personally think this relationship is going too fast. My mum went into hospital and my sister started sleeping round his house. If my mum was at home my sister knew she wouldn't approve. He's also really persesive over her and calls her names. He once told her that she had problems that she was a female pervert and called her a slag and things like that... if that was me i would have dumped him there and then. My sister is a very inderpendent person and she never gives people second chances. Every where I go with my sister his always there and I can't spend time alone with her. She's also forgotten about her best friend that she's known since year 7. I've spoken to her about her behaviour and her boyfriends but I just get shouted at. I don't tend to mention anything anymore... but I don't think she's happy.

    tell her how you feel. maybe she'll spend more time with you. It's pretty normal to be missing someone's old personality.

    Look.. I see your point but she is inlove - let her be.

    She might have a boyfriend but it doesn't mean she doesn't love you.

    Remember blood is thicker than water.

      Yea, I know she can't spend every minute with me for the rest of her life. But she's never been the type to be on the phone all day, or care about this kind of stuff. And I don't think she's in love with him. It's just she acts different now, which is fine... but I don't like her as much now. She just acts like a typical teenager, and she has never been like that. People change, and grow apart. It's natural. But she has become more immature. So it's not growing up, it's like backtracking.

      And it's not so much that she doesn't spend time with me... it's that she doesn't want to. She used to always want to hang out with me.

      She's not busy either, when she's not talking to him, she just takes a nap or something.

    I never spoke to my sister for an entire year when I was 16, she missed christmas, thanksgiving, called me on my bday but she never showed up without her boyfriend. It made me extremely bitter towards her becuase we used to be best friends as well, then one day she moved out and i rarely saw her or heard from her. She broke up with him now but seeing how she treated me like an expendable family member just to use up time until she found her boyfriend and then just phase made me hold a grudge against her till this day. If I see she is calling me I wont pick up the phone, I wont go eat somewhere with my family if I know shell be there. It is pretty horrible to feel phased out, like some dude she just meets is more important than a brother or sister shes known practically her whole life. Well, whatever. If shes doing that to you then just stop talking to her, if she starts missing you and wants to talk then thats good, if not, then just phase her out she isnt worth yourtime even if she is your sister.

    drifting apart from your family a bit is just a part of growing up, it's nothing personal against you, it's just sometimes if you've been raised with a group of people all your life you need space from them. it doesn't mean she'll never be as close to you again, just maybe that she needs a bit more time apart.
    the reason she's hangin out with her boyfriend more now is probably just 'cause he's new and exciting for her. the novelty will most likely wear off after a while, unless they actually are in love.

      Thanks... that actually helps a lot!
      I guess it was inevitable.

      And I do think she will eventually get over it.
      I think she just got caught up in it!

    I have the same thing happened to me just that my sister boyfriend live in my house because he didn’t have a home and they see each other everyday and it bugs me because we used to spend like all the time together until he came then she spends more time with him and just leave me out and I don’t know what to do

    I'm going through the same thing. My sister just got her first boyfriend almost three months ago and it drives me crazy. She's my twin and the only sibling I have. It sucks because we used to do everything together. We were inseparable at the leg. Now all she does is text/call/FaceTime him. And when she actually decides to spend time with me we talk about her boyfriend. So she's really annoying to hang out with right now. She only gives me like fifteen minutes at a time then she goes right back on the phone with her boyfriend. She'll give him six hours and me fifteen minutes. I'm sick of talking about him, I've consulted with our parents, they've helped a little but not much. I've also tried to sort it out with her everyday and give her a fifteen minute long emotional/statistical speech, then she'll start crying and say I'm right. Twenty minutes later she's back on the phone. He's an okay guy but I HATE HIM. I can't really say bad stuff about him either because his mom is my teacher for the two most important classes to me next year so this SUCKS. Okay rant done. :P

    I have a similar issue. My sister has gotten back with her ex after she broke up with him for a few months, before that they were together nearly 5 years. I'm 19 she's 24 nearly 25 and we when she got back with him I wasn't happy. In fact I cried all night and even when I woke up because of the thought of him taking her away again because I use to never get to see her and well when she broke it off me and her became like best friends, we lived together in our own flat. But she got back with him and currently we all live together 😠 When I wake up, her boyfriend gets ready leaves but they are constantly texting each other or are in the phone I hardly ever get me and her time anymore when we do he makes sure he stays so we can't do anything. I just feel excluded from everything they go of places don't invite me even if it's just to my mums. Maybe I'm being selfish but personally I feel like I want to move out because of how much it's affecting me mentally. I feel lonely, if I walk into a room they walk out and I've spoken to her about it but it's not changed. I loved living with my sister but with her boyfriend here it's completely different I feel invisible, they just chill in their room these days and I'm left to do my own thing. I have no other friends it's either home or I go to my mums and her boyfriend. I just want a relationship with my sister without her boyfriend snatching her away 😒 I miss her

  • Oh god I know wat u mean. My sister is dating th biggest jackass in th world and I've already had it out with him.. Lol and she thinks she's all that and a bowl of pudding when she's with him and it bugs th living shit out of me. He's always at our house and he acts lik he's just so frickin important and I wish I cud just punch him in th face. Thankfully he's going away to college in lik 2 weeks XD! THANK GOD! Ugh so just wait til u have a bf! Trust me it's better for u to give her some space. Hearing about EVERY bloody detail in their relationship will get so disgusting if it lasts long. Just make sure th relationship doesn't completely fade, but don't get on her bad side.. Trust me.. She can turn into th biggest shiniest bitch if she's not with him.. Hope this helps! It helps me for venting reasons cuz my mom liks him too and treats him lik family so I can't tell her :b

      Omg, I'm having the same problem as well, recently my parents have allowed my little sister (15) to bring her boyfriend home and they bring him everywhere and it's annoying because I don't like him, like he's nice to me I just don't because he's trouble, but recently I've felt like my sister has started distancing herself from me. I'm 18 and her and I have always been so close but now since she brings her boyfriend everywhere it's like she doesn't have time for me anymore, and when I try to talk to her I feel ignored, and idk if it's just but I feel like my parents are you to end up paying more attention to him instead of their first born. Me. I just wish she wouldn't act different when he's here.

  • i don't think you will ever find a boy friend that your sister has that you like, it's ntural, and she will talk to you agin when she needs to, it's her first, it's most likely just a fase.

    Is she a teenager? I think it's just a phase, when she grows up, she will grow to accept that she cannot claim to be a superior human being just because she has a boyfriend.

    If she is old enough to know better (above 23 or so) and has done this before, then she has a real problem and you need to sort her out.

    I agree and try talking to your sister about how your feeling. If you don't tell her you miss her, she won't know.

    its not about your sis right now its your feelings of left behind. what ya need to do is let her go but get you a close friend or even a boyfriend if you are old enough, cause in the mean time anything goes wrong with your sis relationship you will be who she turns to first and then she will hope you are still there for her so dont sweat it
