I love my brother so much and though we have 9 years difference (he is younger) we are the best friends and he trust me everything and tell the things he never tell our parents. We trust each other much. We share the secrets, feelings and if I tell him something I'd like nobody know it, I know, am sure - nobody will know it. I always wanted to have a brother and I am too happy I have him. If I need a man advice I always ask him and it stops me to do the big mistakes in my relationships. If I need some help I always can ask him, too.

When we were kids, my brother and sisters and i would always play with each other and we were close in a way that we play together, we go to school together, and we go home together. However,the age gap between my oldest sister and my youngest one is 6 years, so maybe that was the reason why as we were growing up,we started to drift away from one another. My oldest sister matured first and started hanging out with friends and would not play anymore.There would also be a lot of times when i take them for granted. But now, all of us are separated already because we are all living in different countries, so it is also the reason why we are slowly finding our way back to each other. I miss the times we used to play together, or simply just be with each other.. Maybe it is the distance that make us realize that we all miss one another and now, we keep in constant communication through email and sometimes we call one another through long-distance calls.

Well I dont have any brother but I do have two sisters and both are younger to me and we are damn very close despite we all having different kind of people as our spouses we realy love this brother sister bond and so far nothing, I mean literally any thing in life has not been able to shaken that bond. That doesn't mean we never had any differences or fight but it all been a minor things and ultimately the love between us prevailed.

We are many in the family. We had the ordinary ramblings when we were young but as we grew older, we did not quarrel anymore. We are now old and the more we should not quarrel. We love each other, brothers and sisters.

In my case, I love my two older brothers. We're close but I don't tell secrets to them cause I'm the only girl. Hehehehe!!! They might know all my dark, dark secrets. Still, I'm close to them. Whenever my 2nd older brother visits us, we hang out together with his wife. We go shopping. We go and eat in restaurants. We talk. And we also help each other. I never ever thought of hating my brothers.

I would say I am close to both of my brothers in different ways. My younger brother and I have similar interests in philosophy and psychology, so we usually end up sitting around sharing what goes on in the deepest reaches of the mind and spirit, there is nothing I couldn't say to him. Plus, I am the only girl, and he is a very sweet young man, so I guess he can express his sensitivity with me more than with our older brother. When I come home to visit after being gone an extended time, he gives me flowers! My older brother, however, is a bit more detached and drinks a lot. We live relatively close to one another, within half an hour, so occassionally we'll get together for a movie, dinner, coffee or shopping. I really enjoy his company, and feel great just being around him, but there are certainly issues that, if brought up, could ruin a perfectly nice day with a terrible argument. I think it depends on gender, birth order, and number of kids in the whole family... not to mention individual personality, how well siblings get along.

Unfortunately, I lost my sister about 6 months ago. However, she was definitely my best friend. We shared secrets, and hung out with eachothers friends all the time.

I'm close with my sister but not to my brother. With my sister, I can pour out my feelings and personal dilemnas to her. I guess we're both woman so we have a better ubderstanding that way. With my bro, I can't. What i did observe is that eventhough sisters or brothers, we each our unique. In the sense, that we have our own personalities and behaviours. It doesn't matter if you're the youngest, eldest or the middle one. Its showing respect that is the most important thing here.

My brother is one of my best friends. We bicker like siblings do, of course. But I know that I can always go to him.

I've a brother and a sister and I love both. I'm close to both of them and can share personal feelings with. There may be some routine quarrels between siblings. But hate about each other, is many times the result of some economical crashes. Its rare too see hate about sibling in childhood,it may sometimes..due to over comparison among children.

I have 5 brothers and 1 sister. And you would think that i would be real close to my sister but sadly her and I can't stand each other. She is more into material things and I am more of a free spirit that could care less what people think of what I have or don't have. My brothers on the other hand, I wouldn't trade them for anything!! We get along great. We still have our moments of disagreemnt but nothing like my sister and I.
