Sister wants to show me around her new house.

Quirkz

Hope it’s okay for me to post, nice to meet you all.

My sister bought a new house around a month ago, (she has just got divorced).

Pretty much since she got the keys my family have been asking me when I’m going to see it and I said I’m not that fussed about it, especially when there’s no furniture in it?

I kept saying that as my response and now there’s furniture in it my sister has asked if I would like to see it again, even though there’s no floor.

Why is everyone asking me constantly about seeing a house I’m never going to live in or barely go to? I’m so confused. Am I missing something?

When I was younger I moved house a lot and I find it very unsettling, could it be related to this?

My family says it’s unusual for people not to want to look round a new house - but it’s not mine?

Any advice welcome. Thanks!

  • It's for a number of reasons:

    1. People are nosy and want to see what someone else has and the think you should too.

    2. Its a good excuse to see your sister.

    3. Your sister may want to show she is doing ok on her own.

    4. Maybe she is proud of it and wants to show off a bit.

    5. By visiting it means you know where it is for the future.

    6. It is just something people do.

    7. Maybe there is something cool they want you to see.
