I heartbroken right now and just recently came back from a trip visiting my sister and nieces. I haven’t seen them in years and they’re teenagers now. A lot has changed and so did their personalities. But I still wanted to spend time with them and catch up, but they haven’t been exactly excited to see me. They have been too busy with school and hanging out with their friends. Even my own sister was too busy to spend time with me. That I was basically alone in their house doing chores, cleaning up and buying them groceries with my money. I even slept on the floor with very little sleep.
Till one day my sister publicly embarrassed me and insulted me in front of guests. Then another day yelling at me in front of her daughters. Painting me like a bad person, when all I did was defend myself. I tried walking away from her, but she kept yelling and following me.
Now my nieces have not spoken to me like they used to. That I even left them money before I left. Even my own sister just recently told me that I made my nieces uncomfortable during my visits. Whenever I have not done anything wrong.
Just now I wished my niece a happy birthday text. But she never replied back. This hurts and what should I do?

Your sister is jealous of you. She shouldn't be talking about you to your nieces like that. If you were to see them on a more regular basis they could judge for themselves the kind of person you are. If not then just let it go. Nothing you can do about your sister might as well take care of yourself. My sister and mother hated me because I'm a boy I learned that I can't change them but I can change myself
In a way I know what you are going through with your sister except 2 of my sisters have made it known my entire life they hated me. As for your nieces heartbreakingly there might not be much you can do at this time. As you said you hadn't seen them in years so in a way you might feel like a stranger to them. Also all they know about you is what your sister has been telling them so they are not in a position to judge your character and who you are as person themselves
You have a toxic sister. I can relate, Mine is jealous and resentful of me. Now you know how your own sibling is and I would never go back. Too bad the kids have to be tainted by a toxic was cloth like this narcissist sister you have.
