Odd man out....please help?
So for the last 12 months my little sister has been living with me while her husband was deployed in Iraq....Well heres my problem she was pregnant and carried to term and now ive got a beautiful niece...ive been there to deal with all the mood swings cravings and now diaper rashes and colic...lol...
At the end of this month my brother in law is coming home and my little sister and niece are moving to ohio with him...I feel like ive got alot of time and emotion wrapped up in this and its going to be difficult....my friends think im overreacting and I just dont know...
Am I right to be mad at the situation...(it hasnt effected my sister and I's relationship)....
ok...we've talked about it before....no unfortunately im single at the moment....my biggest problem with this situation is that im going to miss them....1and a half years prior to all this my sister was in a bad car accident and broke her hips in 7 places and I took care of her for almost 5 months while she was bedridden...she's always had her big brother around and I know she's married now but shes always gonna be my little sister I just feel like a piece of me is leaving with her and it makes me sad

this is very normal...you've been there for it all and now they're leaving you...it hurts eh? i know how ur feeling... but you just have to understand they have to be a family on there own you will always be a huge part of their lives and you need to remember that. keep in contact.... are you dating at the moment? if your in a serious relationship maybe now you should consider having a family of your own... i don't know you but you seem to have that "family man" mentality.
Good Luck hun

I think you shouldn't be mad because the only reason your brother-in-law wasn't there was his job. I understand how you must feel, you were sort of the "father" while he was gone. I think you should just be thankful that he isn't out there disregarding his responsibilities to his family but working for them.
So that you won't feel bad, try and visit them every once in a while. That feeling will soon fade away.

well, it's actually kinda off for your sister to that without even thinking about how you'd feel after all you've done, she should know that you're already emotionally attached after being with them and taking care of them blah blah,.. but it's not right to be mad, try talking to her, no dont rty. talk to her, tell her how you feel, she's your sister and she will understand you, but it's still up to her whether however she's gonna respond and whatever she's gonna do about it. just let her do what she has decided, respect it, after all you really cannot do anything about it but to say how you feel.
