Sisters..how can we be so very very different  

My sister and I were nothing alike either. We had very little in common. Then my daughters are all different also, as different as day and night. I have to say though you sound the most practical of the two of you, which will get you through harder times than someone who has to have the finest of it all. Each to his own I guess!

What a funny question! For sure you and your sister can't be the same! You girls are from the d same parents that's true but you don't expect to have the same character, choice, attitude, interests e.t.c. It's natural! Its happens everywhere. In my House we are five boys and no girl. I am the eldest and we all have different characters. Even twins have the same character as well.

It doesn't surprise me. Even though two people grow up in the same environment with the same parents, it doesn't mean they'll turn out the same. A lot of your personality comes from you.

My sister and I are actually pretty similar. We're both big readers, love to write, fun-loving, and kinda crazy at times. But we're not completely the same. She has more of an artistic side than I do for instance (I can't draw to save my life). She's a bit shier than I am, and she's much more sensitive than me. She'll cry for touching scenes in movies or books, and I won't. (I know... I'm such a weird female). I'm much more active than she is. I love to dance and run while she would prefer to stay seated all day. It doesn't have anything to do with the way we were raised or where we grew up... it's just us.

You know its funny, I was just saying the same thing to my husband the other day. My sister and I are pretty different too. She is the same way with some things. For her son she has tons of clothes given to her and she passed most of them down for me even though there was nothing wrong with them. Relationships are different too. We came from a stable home and our parents have been married for 30 years. I was always one for serious relationships where she jumped around quite a bit. She always picked these loser guys that cheated on her or took advantage of her and she let them do it. I wish we were more alike I would like to be closer to my sister.

Hi saundyl! I don't have any sisters so I really couldn't say,
but I do know that it is very possible for siblings to be
different! I have friends that have sisters and they have
different personalities. They may be similar in some ways,
but not all! Like you said, two of your sisters are similar
and only one is very different! So that is very possible! She
wants to be the oddball! If she wants to waste her money on
designer names then let her! I personally feel that your way
is the better way! I am more like you! Can I be your sister
too? I would much rather buy a whole bunch of stuff for less
money then one thing for more money! I see no purpose in wasting
money like that! Let me know if your family can adopt me! lol

Somewhat similar, somewhat different. My sibs and I are a little of both. My youngest sister is deceased. My oldest sister is a half sister. I would say that my younger sister, my brother, and I are alike we are all workaholics. My older sister is an excuseaholic. None of us are too proud to buy second hand. All of us have some kind of creative vision for our recycled treasures. My older sister, like my mom, holds on to "stuff" even when the stuff becomes trash or junk. I am cluttered, but I do not have to own things to feel wealthy. Sometimes the neediness is a sign of insecurity or a feeling that they lacked attention.

We're all kinda different - there are 5 of us, I have 2 brothers (one older and one younger) and 2 sisters (both younter). In some ways we're the same, but quite a bit of our tastes are different. Now, I did not live with my brothers and sisters from the timeI was 15 until my mid-twenties, but for our youngest years we were all raised the same.

I always found a correlation between the way the people were raised and how they viewed clothes and other such things so this is an interesting story for me. My only other sibling is a 8 year old little brother (I am 19) so I don't really know how to compare but it's interesting to know that you and your other two sisters are more alike where as this one sister sticks out as a very "gotta be new and expensive" person.

I am different from my younger sister. Our looks are different. I am the one with big eyes while she inherited beautiful chinese looks from my mom. I am always jealous of her straight hair while I have wavy hair. She is so skill with massaging while I can only make people laugh when I touch them. But I win over with cooking skills . Despite that we have the same hobby : collecting stuffs.

All siblings are different. My sisters and I do share alot of similar interests, but we have alot of differences too. I'm more the shy, softspoken one, my older sister is more of a hellion, and my oldest sister is just kinda her own person. We all have different traits and qualities that make us who we are. I think that life experiences and the events that take place in our lifes shape us and our personalities, so the fact that you were probably more similar growing up is because you were in the same environment, exposed to the same elements everyday, but as you get older and you grow and mature, and go through whatever life experiences you do, that all shapes you into who you are now.
