Dear Anita,

everyone – her sisters / my aunts. everyone she meets! like if she meets an auntie – which is the indian word for an older woman…if she meets an auntie say at a party they may make friends, but then the auntie may not call her or want to make plans.

or what happens A LOT my mom always says is that if someone comes to our house, which is nice, and maybe nicer than other people – and when they come over they ask so many questions and get weird – they get weird and jealous that our house is so nice – –and then after that they dont talk to my mom or parents. because they got so jealous by it

or if my mom is at a party she always dresses so nice and looks beautiful, sometimes her sisters wont talk to her because theyre jealous of her and how she looks so nice, and they dont.  so then my mom later says she was lonely because they all left her out

they leave her out a lot.

my dads brothers have wives, and theyre all jealous of my mom when we go to india – and they dont talk to us that much, my mom or me…those moms are bad and they tell their kids/my cousins not to talk to us nicely
