I am starting to hate my cousin?
I have a cousin who is three years younger than I, and we are both girls. I'm 18 and she is 15. We go to the same highschool, and I can't stand her. She is exactly why people hate freshman, because they are just like her! She is so rude to me an disrespectful it's ridiculous! We were once talking on Christmas with our family's about my job. I was saying how I wanted to find a new one a ice cream shop. She blurts out " oh, we all know that you'd be really good at that job and have a fun time". Like wtf is that supposed to mean? Then followed by, " we all know ou didbt get that body eating salad"! I was floored! I couldn't respond I was so taken back. She seems to only do these things to me when we are in public. Everything's gotta be a competition to her. She thinks she's so much better than I am, and trys to make everyone to see it. All she is a obnoxious, stupid, ditzy, athletic botch.
I feel like we will never be friends, and I am starting to hate her. How can I develops skills to cope with her? I can't spend more than a day with her

If you don't like her then you don't like her, you don't have to be friends with her just because she's your cousin. You don't even have to acknowledge her except when your parents make you be nice to her or something. And even then be as sarcastic as you can be.
You can even be a *****- wait I'm sorry "Botch" back. I always find it fun to put a botch in their place.

you will get to her by ignoring her and NOT reacting to her at all! She wants a reaction and she sees you're bothered by your face. Don't make eye contact with her when she's like that and do NOT let her see you mad....pretend like you didn't hear her and remain happy........that will be the answer!!

Why don't you talk back in a mature way? For example, "We all know how you got that body, from eating salad!" You could had said, "Squats honey, I can teach you if you don't know how to." Let out a giggle and change your focus onto something more positive. You have to learn how to snap back without giving her a reason to attack you for it. If you can't live with them, then don't. Find other friends or go hangout with them alone without her.

You're looking too deeply into your cousins actions. It's really about how you react to her. The tact's to stay calm and silent, but never behave at her level. Yet it sounds as if she has many friends to deal with, so why she's apparently hanging around you more often is a puzzle. so is there a way you can naturally avoid her?
