Sister learned bad behavior from narcissistic mother.

[competewithno1]

I want the perfect come back for my narcissistic older sister who is likely a sociopath. I will call her Charlie. She has a sign in her kitchen that says "be nice or leave" yet she is the least nicest person I know. (She never said she had to be nice but I still take issue with its directives.) Being a sociopath she is excellent at spinning

im sorry I said that wrong.

I don't talk to Charlie (Manson). It's downright enjoyable to not speak with her. I also try to not say much of anything about her to my other sister as she has to come to her own conclusion, if at all. I don't believe in trying to convince anyone else of something as whose to say I am right. Besides, the calmer I am in what I do say to my other sister the more reasonable I come off.

However, one of these days my other sister will likely say something about Charlie (why am I not talking to her, or more likely good for you for not talking to her). I want to have simple, easy things to say back so I can just move on to the next subject.

I like words. I find it interesting that "be nice" has no opposite statement (she is the least nice person I know?) that mirrors it. Not sure if that makes sense.

But as for Charlie herself? I rarely talk to her unless we are all in the hospital with Dad, and even then she is off seeking attention from social workers. She has said 50 times she would call me back but has not - and I don't go to her horrid little corner of the world. I'm the lucky one! For real.

"As you may have noticed, Charlie and I do not get along. I do not feel that our relationship adds to my life, so I have chosen not to spend time around her." And then "I don't want to talk about this anymore. [insert subject change to innocuous subject, like cooking or what the kids are up to.]"

Thanks.

I told her I don't talk to her anymore.
