[Help] How can I feel like that "cool, hip, gorgeous" older cousin to my 12 year old ...

Find your weak spots and work on them.

Like maybe losing weight?

But the only way to be cool, is to fully accept yourself.

And think highly of yourself & be generous enough to share that feeling

with everyone else. You don’t necessarily have to be the ‘cool cousin’.

You could just be a good mentor and friend to her. :)

Because the second you do that, you’re not cool. You say that you think you’re fun to be around, a cool cousin, a role model. You have to not only think but KNOW. When you do that, and ACT that way instead of crawling in the corner, or feeling jealous/awkward you won’t be able to get her to stop calling you to take her shopping. Cool, Hip, etc. is undefinable. Don’t chase it. Be it. (Wow… i sound like someone trying to sell shoes. I assure you I’m not)
