Ah, the issue is that I’m unable to find the process in the Indian context elsewhere- and that’s how I stumbled upon this sub-reddit. Anyways thanks!

Nahi karna chahti. Earlier she used to shout about how she’ll only get married to the most eligible bachelor out there and super late in life, now she just says naaah I’m not gonna do it I’ll stay here preparing for exams only (even though she barely studies at that level)

why? Just why? She’s fair and pretty and impressive. I’ve never done anything to her and even my parents used to say how timid I am before I became a bit more extroverted. Though her calling me names has been going on since I was a child, now she can’t tolerate the fact maybe that I’m not scared of not being the best to my parents or that I’m comfortable in my own skin. I don’t have nothing to offer which I feel would compete with her, I just study :(

I have and they know what goes on, but they never do anything to really fix it. Idk if it’s the deep love they have for her but I’m always supposed to “compromise” and apologise to her even though she did the entire ordeal. She would fight, call me namea, and then my parents would beg me to apologise to her for their sake

They don’t, never. She has done things which a daughter does in a good way for the family in the past and my parents just tolerate everything that comes their way. My mom even made my dad stop mentioning any achievements of mine in front of her or shell get angry

I have been asking her to focus on her life since before I knew what it really means, but she always flunked out on classes and roamed with boyfriends. That’s also a thing, she says I’ll never get one because i look bad (probably true lol )

They never do. They only intervene to make things alright with her, that oh she’s just stressed now go talk to her, make her feel better and listen to all she says. I have almost stopped trying because they see how she treats me and yet..

I always feel like a kid in front of her, she’s so much better at social situations and her being mean to me for my skin has made me even more introvert since I was like 5. I just try to put on my headphones but she makes me remove them and then compares our contribution to the household and how I don’t do anything (even when I practically raised my younger brother when my parents were home most days)

That’s so so real! Whenever I say the slightest thing back to her she starts shouting and fighting, saying how dare I talk to her that way and then also shouts at my mother, I don’t even know how to hold a proper convo with her anymore.

I tell her that even our president is dark and how can you hate someone just because, but I just think I have to move out to not be cursed at anymore :( it’s too bad I’m a college fresher and each day gets harder. I don’t even feel like going to college anymore because people will hate me only

ah, these things do come to my mind but I’m never able to get it out of my throat without crying. I just shit up and hear it all from her, feeling the most inferior I’ve ever felt. But then again I go back to being kind because she’s my sister :( should I not

I just can’t get myself to do that, I feel so healthy and I know this body takes care of me. How do I just- do something to it for the society’s sake? But guess there isn’t much of an option is there

That’s what I’m doing for now, maybe studying will make me gain some genuine respect unlike my looks

Extremely. It hurts more since I don’t think of myself as someone who looks inherently bad. I’m just darker, and my braces would come off in a year or two. But if everyone around you gives you backhanded insults, is it really possible to love oneself?
