Should I have to feel like this?

Basically I always feel like theres a competition with my younger cousin, shes only four months younger and I think its sooo stupid that all of my family battle it out. What I mean is my uncle and aunt, my aunt aspecially who is her step mum just glorifys everything I refuse to say anything to my mum because I dont know how or what she will say and do and to be honest id prefer it that way. Its always with everything, school, beauty, absolutely everything there is even my school planner. But last night was a family outing and they were saying oh shes got such long eyelashes ( yh fake ones) ofcourse I wouldnt say anything im not like that I wouldnt say that about anyone and it poisons the rest of my family and they end up stereotyping me like for instance bra size – ok im only 15 why should we have to worry about that now but my aunt goes on and on and on to everyone what because shes a ‘’d’ my mum is that size she is nowhere near it and the amount of padding she bloody uses it. My other uncle even says oh so your not her size yet are you haha – im not shallow that not how I am. People getting me, like my own flesh and blood making me feel bad for everything ffs shes not prettier than me her bra size is not d and 3 if her school was so good in the first place then why did she leave and her glorifyed planner its just why do they make me feel like this??? I dont like it I know I might sound stupid but it gets me sooo bad I feel like I cant go out to family outings with people anymore it hurts my feelings that bad and makes me feel worthless what should I do?

Answer #1

Your auntie and uncle are being completely out of order- who are they to continously make you feel bad by comparing you with your ‘perfect’ cousin? It sounds like you’re really upset about it, and they should be there to support you and make you feel good about yourself, espeically as you’re going through your teens. What exactly is so great about your cousin? It’s a little bit worrying that they’re comparing your bra size to hers. Why would your uncle comment on this? It really is pathetic that they’re boasting that her breasts are bigger than yours- when, as you said, she’s probably just stufing her bra anyway. Is she a nice person? She must have flaws. It sounds like her parents are placing their ‘wonderful’ child on a pedestool. I doubt she’s really as perfect as they make out. Maybe they’ve got problems with her at home or school, and their trying to cover it up. Even if her eyelashes are long, and her breasts are big and she is pretty, at the end of the day what does this mean? When she grows up she’ll probably think the world of herself, and a lot of people won’t like this. I doubt many people appreciate her parents boasting about her all the time. So, if this goes on just say to your auntie/uncle ‘To be honest, I’m glad I’m nothing like your daughter. It really is pathetic the way you talk about her. Have you even heard yourself? You’re maknig everyone feel sick’ If your’e worried about saying this, next itme your with them, make yourself look really good, act confident, smile, look happy and act distant from your aunt/uncle/cousin. Make them feel put down. And don’t let the competing go on any further.

I think you should get something really nice or that she really wnts then show it off to her just to show her how it feals. Also you should tell your cousin , or like hint it. goood luck : Abbie and Maggie

Oh yh I can understand because my uncle sai I have brains but no common sense and who told me this? my nine year old cousin how pathetic im soo angry

Answer #4

I know what you feel like. My aunt’s etc does the same with me with my younger cousin (lol. coincidence). Basically she is really thin and tall and everyone thinks she is so pretty. I always get called fat (which I am not) and she is always getting all the attention and compliments. I mean it doesn’t matter that I actually have brains and do well etc etc, the will insult me regardless, even behind my back

So basically I spoke to my mom and told her that I am not going to family functions anymore because I really don’t need people who doesn’t support me in my life. And now I keep away and I am much happier. I also surround myself with people that love me ans support me - like my boyfriend.
