me and one of my sisters have always been very close. in fact i pretty much raised her cause my mom had issues with drugs and drinking. well i got to a point that i couldnt take it and i left home. i couldnt take my sister with me so she was left there. she left home a few years after me and went into call girl work. i feel that if i would of stuck it out till i could of gotten both of us out that she wouldnt of done that. she would of stayed in school and so forth. she is happy with her life she married her pimp and has a little boy she runs the business now. i am not proud but she is a good mom and she does drink do drugs or anything like that. well we always talked and we were always there for each other until about 2 months ago or so. i needed her help but she was to busy with her life and didnt have time for me. i quit school to take care of her. i lost out on most of my kid life for her and i just needed her for a little bit. it seems like money is all she cares about and how to make more. well we havent spoken since that day. we didnt get into a fight or anything i just told her fine i understand and if she cared more about what she was going to get out of it then me then just forget it. i would figure something else out. she hasnt called since. i havent called her either cause anytime i call all she wants to talk about is how much money she has and how much money she will get for sending this girl to this state etc. i hate hearing about it anyways its not right but it is her life so i keep my mouth shut. its like she cares for no one but her and it hurts cause i gave up so much for her and she doesnt even care. we were losing our home cause the man that owns it died and the kids were selling it well she buys houses all the time so i was asking her to buy this place and turn around and sell it to us. we were going to give her 20,000 more then what she paid for it so it was not like she was going to lose anything she would of gained. she said she would do it but when it came down to doing it she was just to busy to get around to it.

Hello there. I have read your story and feel you are so pity.Maybe something is definitely unfair.You paid so much effort to raise your sister.Unfortunately she seems not too much appreciated to you.You can call a payment,but you will not cause she is your sister.Im just a stranger to you ,but i honour you.You are such a kind of woman and you are so beautiful.We bless you ,God bless you !

Hello there! It is a beautiful thing that you had given up your life to raise your sister, you are truly an unselfish person! I know that it is hard for you to accept that your sister wouldn’t or hasn’t done the same for you in return. I would be hurt also, but then again I would call her if she didn’t call me! I know that it is frustrating to feel unappreciated! The most important thing to remember is that she is still your sister no matter how much she has hurt you. I am sure that she loves you and cares so much about you, but like you mentioned she is busy with “her life”. I get a sense that you are probably feeling like this because for so long she has always needed you and now that she is on her own, you are having trouble letting her go. I am not an expert, this is merely my opinion, but I think that you have to let your sister grow up and although you may feel unappreciated, know that it was you has given your sister the will to make a life for herself!
