i know it 's very petty of me but it is starting to bug me . my family has been very generous towards my adult sister as of late but have not really paid much attention to me . have you tried talking to them about this ? this has happened on and off for years , and i always try to talk to them . i usually get no response . it 's led me to be self-sufficient fortunately . that 's really frustrating , they 'll realize only when you start distancing yourself from them i have in the past and it did n't seem to work . i 'm hopeful they will open up to me one day though .
The favored treatment of the sister by the family over the individual is the cause.
