How should I deal with my boyfriend's JEALOUS sister??

I really need advice! My boyfriend and his little sister (who is in college) are SUPER close. They "hated" each other growing up, but in the last 3 years, they became the best of friends (no kidding; he told me this on our first date). I had no problem with that whatsoever; on the contrary, I thought it was great. And, when I met his sister for the first time, we got along well due to the fact that we shared many mutual friends. We hung out, ate dinner together, and I purchased a gift for her for every occasion (her birthday, christmas, etc...) I even would bring her and her family flowers and gifts whenever I had the chance. However, in the past year, she has grown incredibly spiteful against my relationship with her brother. What should I do??

If I were you I would confront his sister about this. Tell her that you don't want a fight, but you know that she is talking behind your back and being really rude. Tell her that you don't understand why you guys used to get along so well and now she practically hates you. And you usually want to do the "I" statements. When you talk to her, don't say "You do this" and "You do that" because that will just make her get defensive. But I'm sure that if you just sit down and have a nice conversation with her and make sure she knows that you're not looking to get on her bad side or anything maybe she will open up. And tell your boyfriend he needs to open his eyes and tell him that every time he gives in to his sister is just encourages her to keep doing what she's doing because she knows now that everytime she talks bad about you it's not going to matter because her brother will forgive her anyway. Hope I helped a little.. good luck!
