My Sister Is Sometimes A Knucklehead | armine's Blog

My little sister (the baby of the family) and I are fairly close, and she likes to talk to me about stuff going on in her life. Lately she has been all hung up on this guy she met named Dan; anytime we are on the phone or 'hanging out' at her place she always talks about him. But now she's starting to make me a little crazy, because from the sound of things it doesn't seem to me as though Dan is all that interested in her. She tells me she likes to visit him at his place; but in the same breath she will say 'but we never have a good time, he always ignores me and he winds up falling asleep and leaving me alone in the kitchen'. It's like, 'HELLO, SISTER; do you have any brains in your head?' If you see someone a few times and they don't treat you very well, then why do you jump for the phone whenever he happens to call, and why do you keep going back? I told her flat out the other day, I think she would be better off trying to find a new friend - but no, she insists that this guy is the person she wants to spend lots of time with, and I told her not to expect him to change. And after offering her advice and my own slant on the topic (leave him and look for someone else), she said 'I'm going to call him as soon as I get off the phone with you'. OY!! Little sisters can be so annoying sometimes.
