Friend wants to be her sister
Not so much my problem as my friends. Recently I was made aware of her jealousy for her sister. She would continuously try and pass for her younger more popular sister. Describing her features as those of her younger, adopting dress and behaving in the same mannerisms as her. She is smart, tomboyish, many guy friends and few girl friends. At least five bfs, the latest she was deeply in love with. She tried to pass herself off as her sister to him. I want to understand why she would act this way

Hi,
Welcome to practo,
I can understand that she is behaving as tomboyish...could be due to behaviour problems...or gender identity problem
I would suggest you to discuss with your psychiatrist to get an advise or get back to me with all her features
Thank you
