    It harsh to say but I don't like my cousin
    Me and my cousin are always in competeiton
    Well at least she is. Like she's always trying to
    Brag about what she has and tries acting like she's better than me.
    Like why is she competing what is the prize?
    Like she's always saying she;s prettier just because
    She gots bigger bobbs than me
    Fact- I got a bigger bum than her !
    Like she;s always saying how she has everything better than me
    Like I don't want to be mean or anything
    But I got more expensive clothes and stuff than her
    If I like someone she always tries getting them to like her
    Like nobody likes her just because of her attitude.
    I hate it because I try getting along with her
    But she always talks bull I can't deal with it
    Like we just bump heads a lot anyone got advie on how to deal
    With her? Because you know she;s family ?

    Do you in the same house? She's insecure so just ignore it. Just stay away nobody forces you to be with her.

    Obviously she feels she needs to compete w/ you. Take that as a compliment because she feels your better than her! It's her problem. Don't make it yours.

    You can talk to her about it or you can ignore it.

    You can also choose to hang out w/ someone else.

    When you see her just try and have a good time, but unless you live w/ the girl... PICK OTHER PEOPLE TO CHILL W/.

    She's insecure. How is that your problem, unless you make it yours.

    Just ignore her. If you stop reacting or responding to her bragging she will eventually stop doing it. She is obviously so insecure - this is a way to get attention.

    I handle that kind of people with humor. When a very rude sister in law pointed things out about me to show me up as less than her, I would just say something like, "So nice of you to mention it!" Or, "I didn't realize this was the Miss America pageant...let me know next time so I know to stuff my bra!" A few good zingers shut most people up after a while.

    As another approach if you are hurt or truly offended by something she says, try, "Why, I don't know why you would want to say such a hurtful thing to me - true or not. I thought we were family. Aren't we suposed to build each other up?"
