My sister and I like the same guys and it's getting out of control. Especially because it's happened to us with like three different guys. The thing is that all the guys end up liking me and not my sister and she gets very upset about this. I even think that she thinks I'm a boy-stealer. I don't know what to do. I definitely don't want to hurt her feelings but is there really anything I could do about the guys liking me and not her? The thing is that I've had to give up hope on two guys because she's liked them. Sometimes I think it's unfair but I do it because I don't want to fight with her for a guy. It's just not worth it. Any advice?

    You could
    Let your sister have him. Hey there's other fish in the sea, right? He might not be the one for you. Or you culd figure out who he likes then talk to your sis about it. A guy is not worth breaking up family. Blood is stronger than pleasure lol.

    Same taste
    Since you have the same taste, how about you tell her how you feel and figure out what to do from there...but when you get a boyfriend (or she does), tell her about some OTHER guy that she may like and she can do the same for you.

    Get her another....
    Get her a guy. Hook her up and go on a double date. You have your man and she has hers. TRUST ME, if you hook her up with the right guy she will totally forget about yours and you will have your man all to yourself.

    Go with the flow, my friend.....
    If I were you, I'd talk to your sister about this issue and tell her that you can't help it if you and her have the same guy interests. Tell her that you don't mean to like the same guy she does, and hope that she doesn't mean to either. It isn't healthy to keep fighting with her about the same situation over and over again. I'm sure there are a lot of fish in the sea that your sister might be interested in and you wouldn't be into either. Hey, you never know, some guy might pop up on your doorstep you'd be thinking, 'Hey this guy just might be the one for my sis'.

    You're not a boy stealer...
    Try focusing on things other than boys for awhile. Give her a chance to see if she'll like these boys and if doesn't work out she'll see for herself...

    I think you should tell your sister straight up that you don't want to miss out on another guy. Trying to set her up with a different guy might be the trick. Show her you care and that you're not trying to "steal her guy."

    Double Date?
    You're right, it is unfair. Have you calmly talked to her about this? ... How about if you ask this guy (or any guy you're crushing on) to bring a friend for your sister?

    I think you can't do antyhing about it... If the guys like you, you can't tell them to stop liking you and start liking your sister.

    Can't do much. But you can...
    try finding guys that your sister doesn't know. A lot of times, girls feel uncomfortable around the guys that their best friend or sister like, and then they think they like the boy since they feel uncomfortable. ... I hope I helped and good luck!

    I know exactly how you feel! I was in your position...until my sister got a boyfriend who she's been dating almost a year now. It's really caring what you are doing for her. Not having gone out with those two previous guys you both liked (and who liked YOU back) is a really sweet thing to do. Unfair, but sweet. My advice is to not let this chance pass you by! Try setting up your sister with a guy you think she would match with perfectly! A decent guy who you might even go for (since you both seem to have similar taste). That way, you could go for the guy you currently like too.
