Her sister told her she took the leggings because she had left them “unclaimed” at their house for years. She also said that she couldn’t come home and “demand” to have them back.
In front of their family, her sister suddenly started bashing her.
“She continued to become very defensive and started insulting me, calling me an instigator, selfish, and problematic,” she said.
Her sister called her some horrible names, and she started getting the feeling that something deeper was going on other than her being angry about the leggings. To make matters worse, her parents supported her sister in the argument and told her it should be okay for her sister to borrow her clothes. They called her possessive and told her she was being selfish.
“This incident made me reflect on the ongoing favoritism in my family, which has been an issue for me for a long time,” she added. “I feel like my parents often gaslight me and make me feel like I’m the problem.”
After this experience, she ended up telling her family that if they didn’t start to treat her better, she’d give up on trying to have a close relationship with them. Unfortunately, her comments made things even worse, and there is a lot of animosity between her and her family right now.
She sees the leggings issue as a tipping point for her and her family, and she can’t believe that there hasn’t been any effort made from their side to improve their relationship.
Do you think she has the right to be upset over what happened?
