How do you cope with the fact that your sibling has chosen her abusing boyfriend over you?

The relationship that your sibling has with her boyfriend is (presumably) different to the relationship that she has with you. For instance, your sibling and her boyfriend are having sex - while you and she don't.
Your sibling has the right to make her own mistakes. She is an adult and you should respect her autonomy, choices, preferences, decisions, needs, and boundaries.
All you can do is point out to her the abusive behavior of her boyfriend, tell her what you think and feel about it, and offer your help should it be needed.
That is extremely hard. I'm going through something similar with my mom. You just be there for them as much as possible. Be as honest with them as you can. You don't have to be around him or be nice to him, but you shouldn't "down" him or be mean. That will only push her further away. When she needs you, be there. You call her, she probably won't call you as much or talk very long, but if you keep contact, you are doing your part and when she "comes back", she'll turn to you because you were there for her. He will try and keep her from her family and friends. It's easier to control and abuse her when there isn't outside influence to tell her to leave him. Just hang in there and do your best to support her, but try and get her out. It's very hard, but you have to be strong for her, she can't be strong right now.
