The letter details a woman grappling with her sister's recent divorce after 40 years of marriage. Tensions arose when the woman visited her sister's ex-husband, who introduced his new girlfriend, igniting her sister's anger and accusations of disloyalty. The writer feels torn between supporting her sister, who is clearly hurting, and managing her own frustration due to the constant berating. The advice suggests acknowledging both parties' feelings while emphasizing the need for space and the importance of remaining in contact regarding their mother's health.
This is something she can work on in therapy or perhaps with medication.
You don't need to stay in contact through this, though. Tell her you're sorry that she was hurt by you meeting the girlfriend.
