Feel you are living the wrong life

Question

ok i was having a one on one with my sister in law she said she always feel like this is not her life she is living!

As if she was ment to be someone else.

What do you guys make of this?

Answer 1

Someone makes her live the way she's not used to.  She confides herself to you.  Show and let her feel that needed affection.

Answer 2

maybe she has a mental illness. or maybe she's just simply unhappy with her life.

Answer 3

uh oh...

oh, wait..

how is she your sister in law...this is VERY important !

Is she your husband's sister, or your brother's wife???

IT's critical to know this, or I won't be able to answer.

If she's your brother's wife , it could mean that she does not like her marriage and feels trapped.

If she's your husband's sister, it could mean anything.  Maybe she hates her job, she's a closet L*****n, or she needs a career change.. etc etc etc

Answer 4

i feel the exact way like ur sis in law feels and i cant do anything about it..i think u should ask her why and try to help her out..answer mine too..

Answer 5

I don't really understand this question. Is she into reincarnation and all that supernatural stuff?

Answer 6

I think that way sometimes to. I had a dream as a kid that I would be married by 24 and have a child by 26. I would live in a beautiful house with a white picket fence and a golden retriever. I'm now 30 still single.

I wouldn't worry about what she is saying. We all say it.. we make our lives what they are today. maybe is is just wishing that things could have been different at times for her. I wouldn't take it personally or think that your brother isn't right for her. She is just talking to you as a friend. I would continue to support her and tell her how you feel.

Good luck

Answer 7

I felt that I was living in the wrong century quite often.

but wrong life? the this doesn't happen to me bit?  no, I have no time for pity and I live MY life-not my boyfriends or girlfriends or kids or parents. sounds like she is not being true to herself and living her life the way she wants it to go. tell her to start telling people no, and grow a backbone. no one is going to magically appear and wave a wand, she has to make changes and seek help if she wants it.

Answer 8

maybe she didn't plan on somethings to happen in her life!  

Answer 9

Just seems that she is not happy or content to where she is in life.  Now what aspect?  Unsure.   Maybe she wants a better career, or her relationship is not up to her expectations.  

  We all feel like this at some point in our lives, especially as we get older.  It can be fixed if she realizes what exactly she wants to change in her life.  Maybe you can have a couple more one on one conversations with her and get to the root of the problem.  But, reassure her you are neutral, and if the source is her marriage, you have to let her know you are not running off to talk to your brother!
