I have two younger sisters and im the oldest. My age gap is 6 & 8 years, which means they only have a 2 year age gap. I'm 28 and have a family of my own, with two babies.

They've always (naturally) been really close, and I've just been an outsider. Acting like their mom, looking out after them, offering them advice, and just generally trying to be involved in their life. We had a great relationship, where they would come visit me (I live an hour away from them), and we would have fun and joke around, and we would just bond over inside jokes and life.

Every since this school year started. My youngest sister moved into the city with her bf and my middle sister stayed home. We're all in school and have different priorities in life, I understand. But ever since she moved away (still within an hour of each other), they've kinda just forgot about me. I feel so disconnected from my family. My mom let me know (her not knowing I'm feeling isolated) that they visit each other regularly and without any planning ahead of time. I've yet to be invited to my youngest sister place. I try to communicate with them and i dont get much in return.

I just feel so isolated and so incredibly sad. The mix of stress from nursing school, taking care of my two under two, and feeling alone, had brought me to constant tears this past week.

When I bring up that they should come visit (it's hard for me to visit them alone cause of my kids), they ignore me by changing the subject.

I'm definitely more hurt today as my mom told me my middle sister slept over, and they ignored my texts all day yesterday. And then I saw a tiktok my sister made "pov: you moved out without your BFF (sister)" and it's texts of them just telling each other they missed each other and telling each other they're gonna go visit each other.

I know we have different priorities and definitely in different parts of life. I just wish they cared enough to check up on me or try to be understanding of why I need them in my life.

Idk how to start this conversation with them, when I simply think they don't care. 😥

Sorry just needed to vent.

Thanks for reading
