hey all, i'm a frequenter of the tb (even though i'm 20 hehe) but i thought that the cb would be a good place to get advice for this matter....sorry if this turns into a novel! but i could really use some good advice!
so i have a dsis (19) and she is very difficult to deal with. when we get along everything is great, but then there are other times when it's just impossible to deal with her! she has a terrible temper and a horrible attitude, not only with me but with my parents, and even grandparents!
i understand that it's just part of growing up, and the attitude i can usually deal with.
but what i need advice on is how to deal with her when it comes to another couple of issues. i keep my room very tidy, i take care of my clothes and my things, she is the opposite, her room is a pigsty and all her clothes (even NEW clothes) are all over the floor. now, i don't care what someone else's room looks like, but what she does, is she goes in my room without asking and wears my clothes and then leaves them on her floor and i don't see them for the next few weeks! and whenever i confront her about it, it turns into a huge fight where she acts like she did nothing wrong. if i happen to set foot in her room (to get MY clothes back) i get screamed at, pushed & shoved out for intruding in her room! almost every time i go into her room i find at least 3 articles of MY clothes in a crumpled up mess on the floor!!
this past wednesday, i saw her wearing a (brand new) sweater of mine, when i asked her if she could return it to my room when she was done with it (in order to avoid a huge fight) she explodes! and tells me that i 'go in her room all the time'. she claims i stole a reese's pb cup out of her room (yep, she's livid of a pb cup!, i know) and that since she can never have the pb cup back, technically she can take my sweater and tear it into pieces so that i can never wear it again...what kind of twisted logic is that!?
there's so much more to it than that, but i don't want to bore you with the details. my parents can't talk to her about it either because she has no problems throwing a hissy fit at them too. and i don't want OUR problem to be their responsibility, i think we should be old enough now to sort things out ourselves? i feel like being 19 and 20 we should be past this by now! and i just can't take it anymore!! (this thread is stemming from a recent incident where she has stolen [and hidden] my new $30 mac eye makeup brush, because she was angry at my for asking for my sweater back...
)
i just need some advice as to how to deal with this situation. every time i try to calmly talk to her about it she erupts and acts like i'm attacking her and that she's done nothing wrong. i'm just at my wits end and could really use any advice you guys have to offer!
