First of all, I come from a huge family. One of my cousins is about 12 years older than I am and she has four kids... I was always invited to come over and babysit for her, and we did lots of things together with our church.
We were at a ladies party for our church, ladies bake things, we do a bible study with the ladies, and then we give makeovers and do hair/makeup etc.
I look almost exactly like my cousin (facial wise) so much so whenever her second youngest son was in the nursery room and crying for his mom, instead of bringing her in and bothering her (like they had to do so much before, she'd always miss church) they'd bring me in from youth classes and let me hold him for a bit, he'd always stop crying because he either thought I was his mom, or he thought I looked enough like her (familiar face maybe?) he'd quickly stop crying. It worked great because my cousin didn't have to miss much church (she was complaining about this before, and luckily the pastors resolved it) and she seemed very happy.
I was invited over to babysit alot and she kinda "adopted" me and my other cousin as a big-brother-big-sister type program that was going on. We had lots of fun and we involved the kids less and less.
Well, I started being involved in nursery less and less as I grew older and at one of these makeup ladies' parties, I put on some make-up and my cousin started whining that "I looked too much like her and I was prettier than she ever was" etc.. etc.. she nearly started crying.. and she kinda threw a tantrum in front of the whole church. It was really awkward, and after that she stopped calling me, switched churches, and we never saw eachother after that incident.
What went wrong? Did I do anything to upset her? Is this jealousy or does it sound like she had some kind of other issues going on..?

those variety of circumstances happen everywhere. many cases the guy competing who's youthful, holds the older is such tremendous esteem that they want to be like that man or woman yet experience that they could't really get there. If she is attempting to actively compete with you, that's because she is attempting to stretch herself to be as strong as you're. She might want to like to be extra effective at some thing that you. In her tries to communicate down about you, that's in user-friendly words to diminish the bar. If others imagine of you in a adverse way, then she has a extra effective danger of turning out to be above it. Frankly, if I were you, i might want to snigger on the stupid attempt and write them off as being infantile. she will't really make you some thing you aren't any further, she will't change who or what you're. She in user-friendly words has administration of herself. I recommend taking her to lunch and merely speaking about what each and every of you've for destiny plans on your lives. See in case you may help one yet another and encourage one yet another in reaching your objectives. households are effective and would't get replaced. everybody has a particular position in our lives and a particular position in our hearts. enable her recognize the position her position is in yours.

Clearly she's nuts. You should start having an affair with her husband. Then he can leave her and take the kids with him. This will make your cousin's mental health all better.
