I got divorced a couple years ago and decided it was time to buy a house as opposed to renting an apartment so i ask my sister if she would be interested in be a roommate.She was liveing in a mobile home that needed lots of work and the managment was constantly raiseing her lot rent.So i buy the house and she moves in and right away my sister and my daughter who lives with me every other week begin to fite and try to get me to take sides.What ideas do some of you more seasoned guys have for ending this B.S?
"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."
Attraction runs on a clock.
She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.
The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."
One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.
Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.

"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

Could you ramble about your fears and insecurities a bit more incoherently and refrain from using paragraphs? Thanks.
As for your household, its lead, follow or get out of the way. Your gonna have to take the lead here. What is your personality like? Maybe that's a key to why you are having a hard time with them. Are you soft spoken? A people pleaser? Anti Confrontational?

"How I Made Sure No Woman Ever Friend-Zoned Me Again"
She calls you when her car breaks down. When she needs help moving. When some guy she's actually dating treats her badly.
You're the listener. The reliable one. The guy who would treat her so much better, if she'd just open her eyes.
She won't. You trained her to see you as the low-effort option — the friend who requires zero risk and zero investment. Every favor dug the hole deeper.
The "22 Rules" break the pattern. You'll stop auditioning for a role she already cast and become the man she chases instead. It starts with Rule 1.
