my sister who is 6 years older than me has been living with her bf for the past 2+ years and she's recently fell out with him (again) and moved back home.

this time like all the others she says she's gonna leave him for good. and that he doesnt treat her right..

anyway she's been back 2 weeks, the first week was fine, she came home at night (wihtout waking me up) but this past week..

she's been out drinking (when she complains she has no money) about 5 nights of 7 and woken me up 2 of them.

im sick of her acting like a complete **** about it and thining that its alright to go out and get drunk (when she has borrowed money from myself as she had none)

anyway i hate that she's back and its messing with my sleep.

Simple, dont give her the funds to go out. When she asks for cash just reply saying she shouldnt have wasted what you gave her on drink.
 
I know how you feel, i lent my younger sister £500 to pay off her student loan then she disappears to Spain and has yet to pay me back. She always talks loud downstairs while im trying to sleep (she works nights), really anoying.
 
no it aint my house, but unfortunately her room is next to mine.. and at the moment she aint the only one in there!
 
well tell her how you feel but don't do it in an argumentative way - you understand how she feels at the moment but she also has to consider that you need sleep.
 
speaking of sleep im off to bed *again* just hope i can survive 8 hours of lecture's without falling asleep, (soo glad i dont have work after :))

nite everyone lol
 
Have you considered that she hasn't even realised she is waking you up? This may just be her way of reacting to the problems with her (ex) boyfriend. It can also be difficult at first to move back home and have restrictions like trying to be quiet after a certain time when someone is used to being able to do what they want and when.
Don't have a hissy fit about it, just talk to her and politely explain that you live there too and you need to sleep. If that doesn't work, speak to your parents.
 
yeah.. that doesnt work and where she lived before she had to be quiet too as the bf lived at home with his mother and his brother..

anyway i need to get some sleep, but even so this still doesnt change the fact she's spending money she dont have! on something she doesnt need.
 
Well I have been awake all night due to my house mates music, and have a 9 o'clock lecture now *sigh*.

Yeah its the name of dmpoole's band.

I think Vixen is right, the reason she's going out drinking is likely to be because of the problems she's had and her not feeling too great, so if you're harsh when you approach her it will likely just make things worse.
 
Try living in a student house mate, THEN you'll get people coming home drunk at ridiculous times waking you up. It's happened to you all of twice?

Stop whining and giver her some moral support

He has 8 hours of lectures the next day. He doesn't want to be out all night drinking.
