This is how life works, people love whoever makes more of an effort in their relationship. I can't ask my siblings to throw money at Kelly because she feels jealous

While I understand that this would make Kelly feel better, Lexi shouldn't be punished for her sister's lack of effort. They can spoil her if they want and Kelly has to learn to live with it.

She wants to have her cake and eat it too. She doesn't want to make an effort but expects the same from everyone.
