My sister and I are both engaged, and while you think she would be happy for me...she's not really acting like it.
My older sister, who was engaged April 1st 2012, had originally wanted only a 6 month engagement and to be married in October of 2013. We went dress shopping, started looking for venues every weekend. Then, her and her FI decided to look into buying a house, and to put the wedding off. She ended up pushing the wedding back a whole year! We haven't even talked anything wedding for the past couple of months.
I was recently engaged on September 14th! My FI and I are extremely happy and have been wanting to get the wedding rolling for a while now, months before we were engaged. We are wanting to have a 7-8 month engagement. When I mentioned this to my sister today, I didn't get the reaction I was expecting... I was expecting her to be as excited as I was for her wedding plans. Instead, my sister told me that I'm being selfish and childish for wanting to get married before her, that I'm stealing her time, and that she should be the one getting married first beause she was engaged first. I'm not really sure what I should think or feel about this.
I honestly feel like above all else, I should be making myself happy. I don't want to wait another year to be married to the love of my life. How long is it going to be my sister's time? This whole next year? The next year and a half? The next two years? Ughhhh! Help me!
