Because I do. Here’s the story: I’ve been with my amazing boyfriend for 2.5 years and we’ve lived together for a year and a half! He’s truly my saving grace. We met through one of my old coworkers who is my boyfriends best friends mom (I know, kind of confusing). Anyways, we went to the same high school but we didn’t know each other personally. I knew who he was, and he was a year older than me and dated someone in my graduating class. Fast forward 3 years after I graduated high school and we were introduced to each other and things have been amazing ever since!

The problem, within the last year, things have been rough mentally on my side. My boyfriends sister is still pretty close with his ex and she’s recently been popping up randomly in our lives. She moved to the city we live in (just at the end of our street), she was invited to his sisters engagement (her fiancé invited her), she’s going to a wedding my boyfriend is in this summer, and she’s going to be at his sisters wedding. Ugh help me now. I know I shouldn’t feel like this but I just feel horrible. The sad part, I know my boyfriend has absolutely nothing to do with this. In fact, he hates that it’s happening just as much as me! We ended up leaving super early after his sister got engaged because it made him extremely uncomfortable. I’m just so freaking over it and I feel like his sister likes her more than me. It’s just so disheartening, I want to cry. I want to be good enough. I don’t want to be compared to her.

I wish she wasn’t in our lives anymore.
