INSIGHTS FOR YOUR LIFE

An attractive opportunist is right around the corner. Best to seek his intentions (which are material) out in the beginning so you do not waste your time. Once October 2012 rolls around, you will have a clearer perspective on relationships as old ideas about them are overturned. It is during this cycle you are able to “see the forest for the trees,” and meet Mr. Wonderful. Good luck.

Dear Angela:

My sister, Samantha and I are eight years apart in age. For some reason, she has always been jealous of me and competes for attention whenever she can get it. If someone praises me for a job well done, Samantha finds something to top that. Whenever our family gets together and they ask about my life, my sister butts in and begins to brag about her son. It has gotten to the point where Samantha rules the conversation or she starts an argument of some kind. Since her divorce, my parents make “exceptions” for her behavior. Our family plans on getting together over the Thanksgiving holiday, but I don’t know if I can stand another round with my sister. My parents have made special plans for this holiday. Would it cause problems if I do not show up? I’d rather eat a frozen dinner than sit across the table from my sister. Any insights would be appreciated. Amy – 02/15/1979 Samantha – 03/23/1971.
