Hey guys,
Iam a 22 yo female. I have 2 older siblings, a 33 yo big sister, and a 28 yo big brother.
whenever we are reunited (bcs we live in separate places) they somehow always find a chance to bring me down. never in an obvious way but more so to make it seem as a joke. For example they’ll always say things like « oh yeah you would never be able to do this sport, cos you’d cry everytime » and then laugh out loud, or « you’re always lazy and laying on the bed » « you always annoy mom and you piss her off » « you’d be a bad mom ». i feel that all those claims are absolutely false and in fact maybe a reflection of themselves. I always have to walk on egg shells to make sure I don’t give a stick to be beaten with. My mother never reacts because they do it as if it’s a joke but there’ll be maybe 5 of them each day, and always aimed at me. Like they always defend each other. I tried telling our mom but she says I’m too susceptible and should stop being so dramatic… Only my boyfriend agrees with me that this is the rule of three. And this rule says that in a trio there’ll always be one that’s kinda left out and weaker. It’s like a form of domination and having to feel alpha. What should I do?
