My cousin makes me feel guilty if I don’t text her every 10 minutes what should I do?

[Anonymous]

All she talks about is her problems and gossips about her friends through text messages all day long if I go a day without replying she will message me on every platform I have like Facebook, instagram or WhatsApp asking where I am. She is about 15 years older than me and I think she over texts me because she has never had a long term partner. She doesn’t have a good reputation as nobody wanted to meet up with her this summer visiting from Canada

Yo that's pretty wack of your cousin to blow up your phone like that. She gotta chill tf out fr. Like it ain't cool putting that kinda pressure on you and making you feel bad for needing your own space sometimes. Sounds like she hella lonely and needs to work on herself instead of always tryna gossip n chat ya ear off.

I'd keep it real with her - tell her straight up the clingy texts be stressin you out and you need boundaries. Maybe say you'll hit her up every other day or whenever YOU want to chat, not on her schedule. Also she should get hobbies that don't involve just blabbing to you nonstop.

If she can't handle it then you might needa start blocking her for periods or something. Your mental health important too, ya feel? Don't let her mess with your vibe sis. Stand up for yourself cause you know what you need, forget what she wants. She'll get over it - better that than you wigging out from her antics! You got this.

Let her calls go to voice mail.

It’s too much and she will post passive aggressive posts on Facebook

Then block her.

She would cry on the phone because she has never been married I felt awkward because she is much older than me to give any sort of advice

She needs professional help.
