Brothers And Sisters - Page 2

I am the youngest of the family and am unfortunate and lucky enough to have both and older sister and older brother. A few years before, I would have said I favoured my brother, but now that I think about it, I dislike and love both my brother and sister equally. Why? Well, first of all, my sister is quite gregarious and whenever she sees me uses me as a personal diary (talking about what happened today, her boyfriend, et cetera) so that she begins to become irksome after a while. My brother, on the other hand, is detached, he only ever speaks to me to put forth amid an perturbing and awkward silence some wily, caustic and disparaging statement. So, being they act completely the opposite of each other towards me (thus balancing each of their faults), I become appeased with both wishing for no one more and no one less. But if all were precisely as I wished it, I would have wanted a punching bag in my nonage (hence a younger sibling).

Sisters Brothers

1. How strong is the bond between you and your brothers / sisters? I have two older half-sisters, an older foster brother, an older foster sister, and a younger half-brother. The bonds between me and my younger brother and my older half-sisters are the strongest

2. Do you favor your brothers over sisters or vice versa? I seem to favor my younger brother in alot of ways because he was born within days of my 15th birthday and I often feel like his second-mother.

3. Do you find that older or younger brothers and sisters help you more in your enjoyment of life? All of my siblings have helped me with enjoyment of my life, and the appreciation of life, family, and love.
4. Do you maintain a relationship with each of your brothers / sisters equally? No, I only talk to my younger half-brother and one of my older half sisters on a regular basis.
5. Did you wish you came from a family that had more brothers or sisters? Most definitely, I always wanted a big family...I envied those that had lots of brothers and sisters.

I guess that is why so many of my guy friends always "claimed me" as a sister.
