Sisters Called Me Crying

Both of my sisters called me crying last night. 

Older sister:   New boyfriend isn`t treating her right. He called her needy and she isn`t getting the ... attention she wants from him. They're just on different pages - she wants to see him 5 times a week, he wants once a week, etc.  So I was like, why are you putting up with it then? Stop wasting your time and move on. And she was like "Why can't I find a great guy like you?" "Cause you're trying too hard. Stop looking and it'll find you."  She's just trying too hard and putting too much time and effort into guys that treat her like crap. Ugh.

Younger sister:  Is in love with her best friend, who is also a girl, but best friend doesn't love her back.  This is the first time she's brought up being bi-sexual/a lesbian with any one other than said best friend, and she thought I was going to freak out. All I said was "Well, if she doesn't love you back and it makes you unhappy, then we move on and find you someone that will.  The most important thing about a relationship is how they make you feel inside, not what genitalia they have." She just started BAWLING.  She said she was so happy I accept her... and I was like why wouldn't I? She's young, and this is her first experience with heartbreak and I feel so sad for her that she's hurting. But I'm happy she came to me :)

Did I do okay?

    As for first sister, you're right in a way. If you're with someone who wants you to change, they don't love you. They love an idea of who you could be and no matter what you do, you'll never be good enough. As for second sister, very well done. It's hard and scary to come out and you handled it super well.

    Only criticism I have is this. Probably the single worst thing to say to a single woman who does not want to be single. When I stopped looking and waited, I didn't have a date for 10 years.

    You can say she's putting too much energy into schmucks who aren't that into her, though. That's legit.
