I can't F'g win

My bloody sister. I can't F'g do anything right. We're looking after our aunt at the moment. If I help cook meal I'm in the way. If I don't help I'm being lazy.

She can't be told anything (eg aunt likes X or Y ( I know this because I do 90% of the cooking). It's all about some stupid ego (I'm right/you're wrong) crap with my sister. She doesn't listen to a word I say. She always knows best.

Apologies as I know I'm just venting, but sometimes we need to vent :(

When I experience someone doing this, I always say 'ah yes of course, you're right' and smirk very obviously to all and sundry. Once I've done it three or four times, they usually stop.

You're allowed to swear here. If it helps you vent more effectively.

Oh, and the only "winning" with someone like this is to not care about their nonsense and not react.

Ahh I’m sorry. Families!! Maybe you should ask what exactly she wants from you as you’re lazy if you don’t help but in the way if you do? Sorry it’s stressful!!
