...I think.

My sister got pissed off at me the other day for leaving a pan in the sink, I used it to cook chicked burgers. The pan had some stuff stuck to it...So i put some water in the pan to keep it from sticking.

I have been working 12 hour shifts all week, I had just enough time to eat then head out the door to work...So my plan was to put the pan in the dishwasher in the morning when i got home. She kind of snapped at me...I let it in one ear and out the other.

So i am driving home around 4 or 4:30am this morning and started thinking about what had happened, It's not that big of a deal..But we haven't argued in a long long time.

It's been a long & tiring week, I haven't smoked any weed all week..I have slowed down alot. So i figured i would smoke half a spliff when i got home. So i get home, and when i am finished outside i come downstairs to find that all my power is off...But the lights were still working...I knew right away something was up.

So i went over to the fuse box and seen that the plugs for the basement were shut off. I think she did it cause me leaving my computer on all the time annoys her...So she flipped the switch hoping that it would piss me off, Ya i am a little pissed but i find it amusing that she can still be so childish. If she has a problem why doesn't she just approach me with it.

She has been giving me attitude lately, I don't really appreciate it either. All i have been doing all week is sleeping and working...Patience isn't something i don't have alot of right now. The last thing i need is my sister bitching about a pan that i left in the sink.

I am just going to act like nothing happened...Hopeing that it annoys her even more.

I guess i will see if anything else happens.

If anything else should happen, Should I just ignore it? I don't think she would keep doing it if i make her think it's not bothering me...She would just think of something else to try.

Don't act like nothing happened - things will find a way to come out later if you just leave resentments to fester. You have to live with this person, why annoy her? Suck it up and be an adult. Apologize for leaving the pan in the sink, tell her you've been working really hard and you're tired and if you're slacking off that's why. Why make things harder on each other than you need to?

Yeah, with guys this might work as I usually tend to forgive the longer something goes on unless someone did something really bad to me, but with women, you will want to talk it out. If you don't, you are likely to blow up at her for something totally unrelated and then you have to go through a whole bunch of other talk just to get to the real issue which is just what happened. I suspect that there is something more bothering her than the pan, and this is her way of trying to get you to talk about it.

you say she's being childish..... yeah, it sounds like it. but if you go with your plan of ignoring it and seeing if that pisses her off more, that's just as childish and all it will do is make things worse. i would say, when you're in a relatively calm mood, approach her, let her know you noticed the breakers were switched off and that if she did it because she's angry at you to please just come to you and let you know what's up and why she's angry. that should get her to come clean and maybe even apologize for switching off the breakers. then you could give your explanation to her for why things have been the way they have been, even mention that you'll work on doing things better, and MAYBE even do the hard thing and apologize to her (even though it might seem you're apologizing for nothing, so what, it will make things ten times better)

Whatever you do, don't raise your voice. Talk to her in the calmest manner you can, and tell her the truth. Cut to the chase and get it over with.

I haven't said anything to her, And she kind of seems alright...No attitude or anything.

I don't know...I guess maybe she was in a mood that day.

sillygirl, I wouldn't raise my voice at my sister no matter what...To be honest, I may have raised my voice/yell at somebody...Maybe 2 or 3 times in my life.

Hahaha This reminds me of an arguement that my sister and I had a while back.
I was on the internet, As usual and she was _visiting_, she doesn't live here, She wants the phone but I'm downloading something that couldn't be resumed as It had failed 2-3 times already, so I said I couldn't and explained why. She gets pissed and goes outside and rips the phoneline out of the outside box. She's really childish when she doesn't get things her way.

The next day she denied everything. She doesn't ask to use the phone much anymore though.

Explain yourself.

There really isn't anything else you can do after that. If she still has a problem all you can do is go about your life. Fuck it. She'll get over herself soon enough.

I think you should totally confront her about the problem. It's irritating and one of these days youre going to break and just start freaking out.

Take care of the problem while its still small and make a few compromises to make her happy too.

[Yes, I know...easier said than done.]

Today was pretty good...I got home from work tonight and my sister was still up, we actually had a conversation.

I just worry to much about pissing her off sometimes (I never do it intentionally). She gets mad over stupid little things, And those stupid little things is what i sometimes forget, I am gonna do it but not soon enough to keep my sis happy.
