My family is all pretty close I guess, and I was with my teenage niece, and telling her how her parents met and stuff cause its a sweet story. Anyways, I mentioned at one point, they kind of "fooled around a bit" before they were married but I didnt go into much details and the story went on. Later that night my sister stormed into the room and practically ripped my head off because I told her daughter that. I was really apologetic, I honestly wasnt trying to be a jerk, but now my sis isnt talking to me much. Whats the deal? How can I fix this?

Don't beat yourself up too much over this...you've apologized, and I assume that you are genuinely regretful of what you said, right? Your sister is just pissed off because she got busted. Kids don't ever want, let alone need, to think of their parents "doing stuff" or "fooling around a bit", put that visual in your head of your parents and you'll understand. Maybe your sister was concerned that now her teen-aged daughter knows mom and dad fooled around before marriage, perhaps she'll think it's okay to do the same. Not sure that is something your sister wanted put in her head.

It will take your sister some time to forgive you for this, just continue to be sorry. Just make sure that the whole mess is kept in perspective and not blown out of proportion. Your sister should realize that her daughter is or will be finding "things" out on her own soon enough and she will need to address this soon. Perhaps sooner than she might have wished, but oh well.

what!! thats crazy! are you sure that is all your niece told her, or did she stretch the story some?? I do not see anything wrong with this situation...at all
I guess all you can do is apoligize to your sister and let her know that you did not mean any harm and MOST DEFINITELY do not discuss anything "mature" with your niece again
Sorry that you have to be in a situation like this....that sucks, i hate it when people are mad at me especially family
hope everything works out for you!!

i think she over reacted. but in the interest of family and Christmas and etc. go and say to her you were just sharing with your niece, and kidding around and you are sorry if she felt you said something inapproprate. add that she is a good mom and that you hope to be as good one day, and that kind of thing.

Ouch. That's bad karma. You can only fix it by apologizing. Sisters will forgive. Tell her that she has to, that's what families do.
