Why is my sister not replying to me?

Basically in October I met my big sister for the first time…unlike me she doesnt live in the UK anymore so I got a flight and found her…we bonded straight away and since then I’ve been back to see her twice and she came to see me in the UK at xmas…we get on great, were sooo close and considering the 10 year age gap were exactly the same…when I’ve stayed with her and her partner we had loads of fun and I even worked with her for a while and met loads of new friends…shes always said I can go back and visit her anytime and if I want a job there then I can live with them for a while…Well, over the last few months I’ve been having trouble at home and need to get away for a bit and my parents agree it would be a great idea if I stayed with my sister for a while…I’ve asked her about it a few times and emailed her but she keeps puttin off talking about it and wont reply to my emails. I dont understand why…is she fed up with me already? Im so fed up at home I just want my sisters support and she wont even reply…help me :(

well I think that maybe its a pretty big step maybe you think you know her but maybe she doesnt know u?or im sure theres a perfictical logical explination!hope it works out for you the mclane family.x

Answer #2

Do you think it’s possible that she’s just not ready or able to help you deal with your difficult situation right now? Many people shy away from offering help when things get tough for family or friends.

It sounds like she enjoys the good times you two can have together,but she’s not ready to step in and be the support system or the shoulder-to-cry-on just yet.
