My siblings are sometimes my best friends or supporters and sometimes my enemies or villains in my life. I love all my siblings and there are times I hate them. My brother for example is good to me sometimes but most of the times, he is unreasonable. I am in a good relationship with my sisters and I love them more than my brother. BUT maybe because of large age gaps, there are times I cannot understand them.
HOw about you? How's your relationships with them?

I am in the middle of two girls and my brother is the only male. I can say that I hate following my brother. I obey our parents but not him because I find him hot headed person and narrow minded.

@josie_ He is the oldest among the four of us. I am not sure how he was raised but based from my mom, they were very poor that time. They had many debts so I do not know if my brother was spoiled that time or not.

@annierose _I suppose your parents spoiled your brother when he was younger because he is an only son.

Well, you are siblings and stays in the same house . So maybe you should talk to your mother about the bad attitude of your brother that annoys you and makes you aloof to him . That way , your mother can talk to your brother so your brother can change if he is receptive to the advise .

No, we doesn't stay under one roof. Thank God! He has his own family in the countryside. Actually, he also does not care if we will not talk to him.Our mother cried on what happened because she wants us love one another. So, we initiated the talking even though it is against our will.

@SIMPLYD We talked to him but yes, it did not have an effect. We just considered the want of our mother. Our brother does not care at all for the effort of our mom for us to be okay. All he thinks is himself.

I have a good relationship with my siblings. I am the youngest among the three. I only have a brother and a sister. Both of them are married and with children. My sister is like a mom to me because I grew up with her. My brother now lives abroad with his family but he always call via skype.

I have good relationship with my siblings too when we are not together maybe because of the "miss" factor.l I have harmonious relationship with my sisters. My elder sister is very much the opposite of my brother. She is calm and always support me of my dreams.

We were like that too when we were young. At present, I no longer fight with my sisters. But when it comes with my brother, I still answer him back because of his impatient and irrational attitude. He always want to be the center of attention and thinks that he is always the right one.

@SIMPLYD That is what I am doing now. When my mother asks why I do not talk when my brother is around, I just say that I do not want to interact with a negative person.

@LadyDuck That is good. We did not receive any news from my brother when he left. We thought that our father will die without seeing him. Our father's illness became the reason he showed up in our house.

My two younger full-blooded brothers and I barely speak to each other, and because our father neglected to mention us to her until she was 13, our younger half-sister doesn't talk to us at all. That doesn't bother me though since none of them has ever been very kind to me.

@Chellezhere That is nice. My brother tries to protect us too from anyone who hurts us. You are lucky for having such a brother.

@annierose They can't because I won't let them. Funny thing is though, when somebody else messes with me, they need to watch out for my brothers because they won't let them get away with it.

I have an elder brother and a younger sister. I know we love each other, and we will always support each other, but I think our mindsets are quite different. I can't say our relationships are very closed, but I know I can always depend on them whenever I need help.
Though they might not agree with what I do, they support me in doing my own ways.

I have my sisters always at my back in everything I do. They just want what is the best for me. My brother always contradicts with me.

That is good. My brother and I seldom have agreements. We are completely opposite and that is the reason we have fights most of the time.
