Aibu - to be worried for my sister?

[PIPTribunalWin]

I thought I'd bring this to the hive mind of Mumsnet.

Earlier today I met up with my sister and a couple friends for coffee and catch up (for once we were all in the same city!)

One friend (Liz) was singing my sister's (Cathy) praises. All good, I promise this isn't jealousy! Liz was saying how much Cathy had helped them, but then she said something I found weird. "Cathy has done more for my husband than I ever have!"

I've not had a chance to speak to Cathy about it yet but even though it was said in a non-malicious way I can't help shake this feeling that something isn't right. Why would any wife say that about another woman? Am I right to be concerned or am I reading too much into it? I'm just worried about my sister.

I think if it had been something innocuous then Liz wouldn't have said what she did; and Cathy would be more open. I mean I'm her sister for crying out loud. All she said was "helping out with things that's all" and "nothing specific" but it's got to be though to provoke that reaction from Liz?!

I'm definitely worried for her, I mean I don't believe she'd ever choose to play away but I can imagine that she might end up in a situation where Liz's husband maybe takes advantage. I don't know.

What do you mean he takes advantage? Is your sister. A vulnerable adult or not? Belonging to a church doesn't make you vulnerable.

If she is, then you've right to be concerned. If not, then your attention here seems wrong.

Sounds a bit dodgy....

@bluntness100 - She possibly doesn't meet some people's definition of vulnerable adult but I believe her level of trust in others makes her vulnerable. She will always try to see the best in people and will poo-poo any suggestion that someone's intentions may be bad. She will say it isn't for her to judge, it is just for her to help. This includes if someone asks for money or other similar help, she won't say no.

@Ringdonna - I'm glad someone else can see it!
