Am I obligated to accept my sister’s friend into my life? She says that they are a family now and want me to respect that. What is the right thing to do.
 
Well you’re certainly obliged to treat your sister’s friend as a complete person in Christ.

You are not obliged to accept your sister or her friend’s displays of affection for each other.

You are obliged to kindly ask them not to do so in your presence, and if they refuse, then they are obliged to respect your feelings by allowing you to leave the room, house, restaurant, whatever, without taking offense.
 
It goes without saying that you cannot go to any “marriage” ceremony they concoct for themselves.

Are you talking about holding large family dinners at your house and inviting everyone? Do you have children to consider? Or are you talking about having your sister from the west coast visit you on the east coast and staying overnight in your house, and your sister wants you to provide lodging for the friend?

Me, I’d accept my sister bringing a friend to the family gathering. I haven’t had to face the situation, though. If my sister had a permanent live in boyfriend, that is what I’d do.
