'My parents are calling me heartless': Freeloading older sister gets told to move out of couple's home after three years of living with them, causing family tension when she refuses

It's crazy to think that to some people, boundaries are more of a suggestion than a rule. 

Family is forever, but that doesn't mean that they're meant to live under the same roof for eternity.  

Just envision this for a moment: You're happily married, settled into life with your husband, when your older sister asks if she can stay with you for a little while. Fast forward three years, and you've come to the unsettling realization that your definition of "a little while" doesn't quite align with hers. Because, well… she's still there.

In all that time, she hasn't contributed a cent toward the bills, still hasn't quite learnt how to remove a dirty dish from the sink, insists on dominating the TV remote (at all times), and still somehow manages to make her younger sister—the actual homeowner—feel like a guest in her own house.

At this point, too many eggshells have been stepped on, and both she and her husband are fed up with the older sister's inability to get her life together. So now the final question lingers: do you draft up an eviction letter with one week's notice or keep sacrificing your sanity and marriage in the name of sisterhood?
