I think my boyfriends sister is jealous of me in a weird way and it’s causing problems in my relationship. What should I do about this?

Do what you need to do.

WILD. Okay this happened in my last relationship. My bf had an “annoying” sister (my interpretation of the situation, he didn’t want me to get close to her) so it created a riff in our potential friendship. If you want to be friends be friends, if you want boundaries set that. Do you need.

Indirectly prove to her that you’d make a good gf long term

What makes you think she’s jealous of your spending? What kind of things does she do? Also, what are your (yours and your bf) ages and hers?

i appreciate this. i think it’s more of a jealous of how much time i spend sort of thing. it’s almost like she wants him but she doesn’t. she’s so on and off though that sometimes she wants to be BEST friends and sometimes she wants nothing to do w me. it’s a super long story but basically all of it started when she went to college and pretty much cut me off. from there the jealousy spiraled. i wanna set boundaries or block her from my life altogether but my boyfriend thinks it’ll cause a lot of

problems since she’s the type to blow things out of proportion.

we’ve been together almost 4 years and fully plan on staying together so that’s not an issue as much. she just continues to do small things that intentionally get under my skin

so she’s 19, i’m 18, and he’s 17. i wouldn’t think anything of it but she sent me a picture of them hugging after 6 months of her being at school w a really smug expression on her face (a snap where u can tell it was JUST to you)

I just realized in your other comment I missed the word “time” and thought you were saying she was jealous of how much money you could spend loll ok so you say you’ve been with your bf for 4 years, is this behavior from her new and recent or has it always been there?

As for what she’s done it’s definitely odd behavior. Were they like super close before you started dating your bf and with the start of your relationship did that lead to them not being as close? (Not that this justifies her behavior but it could be an explanation.) Also, if it’s new behavior perhaps there’s a friend of hers into your bf and she’s trying to break you guys up so she can try to get them together? Just a thought.

honestly the weird behavior w her heightened between her breaking up w her highschool boyfriend and her getting her new one so i think it MIGHT be a male attention thing? they were close for a year into our relationship before i started having convos w him about things jabs she would make that made me uncomfortable and they drifted after that. i don’t believe that she’d be trying to get him w a friend because she ONLY has friends at college who wouldn’t wanna date a (former) highschool guy?

but it’s still weird that she’s trying to drive a wedge between us. or at least it seems like she is.
