I wish I had a Sister

October 21, 2007 7:27am CST
I'm the baby girl of the family with 2 older brothers and most women involved in and around my life has a sister/s. All the time I hear them talking my sister and I done this went there etc, ok they do fight as well but 90% of the time they are best friends. I don't have close freinds so I don't have any one that I cant trust or rely on or even share things with and I feel a sister would do all this. Please tell me your experience with your sister and let me know if it's good having a sister? Am I missing out?

I have one older sister and also a half sister from my fathers 2nd wife, no brothers and I wish I had a brother. My older sister I never see, she lives in florida and really I dont want to see her because we dont get along and she is the black sheep of the family. She was nothing but a selfish person. She took my mother for her money and lft her in the house that my mother was helping her to pay for with no electric and no food. Now she is in an assistant living home in Fla. She tricked her in to signing off on the house so she can sell it and keep all the money she got from it. Of course not all sister are like this of course, I wish I had a good kind hearted sister,but I dont. I never see the half sister, but she is kinda loud and wild anyway. You can be my sister if you want Hee Hee. Brothers are a good thing to have they usually look out for a younger sister. Be glad you have what you have.

No, are not missing anything. Sisters can be okay, but my mother has a sister and all those two do is fight. My aunt is very sensitive and a complete neat freak, my mother is the opposite, she does not like to cook and clean, and my mother can take things like a man. The fighting between those two seems to not end sometimes. In fact, a lot of women who have sisters tell me that they love their sisters, but they hate what they do. I had a brother (may he rest in peace), and yes, we fought, but we had a lot of great times as well, and I one time wished that I did not have one, and I regret ever having said that. Karma is true, and if you wish for something, you will and may get it, but be careful for what you wish for. Now that my brother is gone, I want him back, his girlfriend wants him back, his whole family wants him back... I miss my bro.

Well I could have had a sister and she could have been the B**** from hell so maybe I'm not missing anything. Sorry about your brother.

you know what..i am also in same boat as you... i wish i had a sister! I am a guy and i have an elder brother, he is very caring, but i dont have a sister and even my cousin sisters are very elder to me so i never enjoyed that jolly relationship with them. A sister is a lot important in everyones life. She is ultimate source of love and care when all world is against you. An elder sister is considered next to mother. I really miss a sister. I am also missing out one. So sad, i hope god blesses me with a sister in my next birth, i will love her like anything.

I have cousins but they are much younger than me and I don't get to see them alot anyway. That was a nice thing to say at the end and I hope one day you get your sister.

Hi Linnie. I have 2 sisters in fact and I am really well-protected under them. Since I am the youngest among sisters, they will give anything to me and please me like a queen. I mean we do fight from time to time, mostly when we were small, but we love each other dearly! I mean it's a nature love. So far as I know, no brother treat their sister like what my sisters are treating me. Haha. I am really blessed to have them. Can you imagine my sister knows my eating habit more than myself do? Haha. That's unbelievable and I admit that.

I have a sister but we are not overloy close. We love eachother, and we'd do anything for eachother, we're just not that close, because we don't ive that close together (I live between my hometown and Arizona in the states...hometown is in Canada and she lives a few hours away from my hometown).

I believe it's not the gender which really matters here. In our family of six, I'm the eldest child and I have three siblings; one younger brother and 2 younger sisters (in order of birth). When we were still in our high school days, I feel that I am closer with my brother. Not only when my younger sister came of age that we had our real bonding together but that was only a few years because I got married four years ago. I know you're not missing out. I think you're lucky to have 2 older brothers who normally should protect you and treat you like their princess. I have to admit that at one time in my life, I've wished for an older brother to protect me from bullies or act strictly when a suitor comes to visit me. Cheer up and take care.

I have two older brothers and I am the baby girl in the family too. I dont think I miss out of anything and you should not feel that way either. I have friends but not best friend and it is hard but you know it is cool and I love it. My dad loves girl and it is me and the only me. Everyone is different so you might be so special that no one can tell and you dont have to worry about anyone else that has sister. Just be yourself and make friend... do you really need to share thing with sister? I understand that you need someone to be around with... Well, you need to give sometime for yourself to be around with friend, make one to be your close friend... and then you will be not too lonely again. I'm married now and guess what... I always want to have sister too but now I have a daughter :), so she is the only one that I can play and share with. :)

I am a girl with no sisters or brothers,all the times I want to have a sister or a brother,I can share my inner words with her,including happiness and unhappiness,and some words I cannot tell to my parents.The same feeling with you

hello!dear linnie(i'd like to call you so if you don't mind) it's my first time to see your topic,i feel nice. when it comes to sister,i have a sister,too.yes,she is my friend,but not the best friend. it's not that having sisters equal having best friends.Rather, a sister is worth trusting ,no hiding the chance for sisters to be the one you can share things with or rely on is more than other people,but still,she is not the only one to be your best friend. if you try to trust others and treat them with your sincerity.i believe you can get others' true heart and real friendship,also you get a "sister"firend. so,you've not been missing out yet.but if you keep thinking on the way that no sister no best firend,you will really get failure. wish you all the best!
