Do you like your sibling/s and...

how many years apart are you?

Just curious.

 

My answer: I LOVE my sis. She can do no wrong and she is my best friend.  We are 3 years apart.

Re: Do you like your sibling/s and...

  • I love my sister. We're 18 months apart. We fought a lot when we were younger but we've been best friends for many, many years. Since college, probably.

  • Hey lady!!!  I love my siblings, but I'm not close to them.  I'm closer to my sis than my bro, but I'm much closer to my two best friends.  I'm 8 years older than my sis and 10 years older than my bro.  This is one of the reasons I want my kids closer in age.  We plan on having #3 (if we do) before G turns 4.
  • my sis is 3 years younger than me, and my best friend

    my bro is 3 years younger than her, so 6 years younger than me. He is the typical baby. Love him, although we aren't as close on an everyday level like my sister and I are

  • My sister and I are 5 years apart. I love her and we really are best friends, but damn if she doesn't get on my nerves sometimes. I think that has more to do with her being 21 than anything though.

  • Close to my brother who is 2 years younger than me; don't have anything in common w/ my youngest brother who is 4 years younger than me.

    We're not close at all, and I think it's partially because of the gap, partially because of choices he's made and partially because we are just completely different people in completely different places in our lives.

  • I like my brother and we get along just fine. We're not very close though, mostly due to living in different states and the fact that we're complete opposites. We were BEST friends growing up though, until I hit middle school. He's 3 years younger than me.

  • I get along great with both of my siblings.  We fought growing up but we always played together and hung out too.

    I am 17 months older than my sister and 5 years older than my brother.

  • I am close with all of them. One is 3yrs younger than me, the other 2 are 10yrs younger than me. The one I'm closest to is the one most like me, not the one closest in age to me.
  • I am very close to my half-brothers who are 8 and 14 years younger than me... I'm not very close to my half-sisters who are 15 & 17 years younger than me only because we didn't grow up anywhere near each other.
  • 10, 13, and 14 years apart

    I love them but we have nothing in common.  I was moving out and my brother was 8, other brother and sis were younger. so I was a babysitter most of the time.  I'm like a 2nd mom.

  • I'm not at all close with my siblings - a half-brother and half-sister who are 9 and 10 years younger than me. We grew up in very different circumstances and I left home when they were in 2nd and 3rd grade. They aren't even close to each other. I was treated very differently than them when I was growing up, which I'm sure didn't help matters.

  • I like (not just love, but truly enjoy) all my siblings. I'm the oldest and the other four are 2, 4, 6, and 13 years younger. However, I'm the closest to the one who is 6 years younger.?
  • I love my sister, and we are twins. We've always been best friends.
  • I like him and respect him a ton, but we are not terribly close.  We are VERY different people and have very little in common, even if I can appreciate his interests and talents.  He is very artistic and moody, and I am very type A.  We're 18.5 months apart.  Growing up we did play together and I am very glad for him in my life, but I wouldn't call us "friends."
  • My sister and I are best friends and she's 10 years older than me! We live across the country but talk on the phone usually twice a day at the least! I'm also very close w/ my bro who is 9 years older than me. I think it has less to do w/ age and more to do w/ just your family in general. We're all very very close. I talk to my mom everyday as well.?
  • I love him bc/ he's my brother, and bc/ of the years we spent growing up together, and all of our shared memories and history, but we're not particularly close "as friends" outside of that.  But I know that that is bc/ of impeding circumstances, and has nothing to do with our age difference (4.5 yrs).

  • My sister is 17 months older than me and we're best friends.  We had a love-hate relationship growing up, although much more love than hate.  Once we were in college we became incredibly close and have stayed close.

     My brother is 5 1/2 years younger and we didn't get along until we were much older.  I'll readily admit that I was really resentful towards him when we were kids.  We long ago decided we won't have our children that far apart because it was so hard on me.  I will say, though, that we're really close now!

  • Older sister: 7 years difference. We get along amazingly now. Not so much growing up. I was annoying, I'm sure. I have always looked up to her though.

    Younger sister: 2 years difference. We are complete opposites. I love her to death but we just have nothing in common. We butt heads all the time. I wish we could be closer.

    Baby sisters: 13 years and 18 years years. My parents are divorced and both got remarried and had children. They are more like cousins or nieces to me. I love them like sisters but we'll never have that sisterly bond. I was barely home after I was 14 (sports, job, friends) and I was in college at 17 so I was barely around by the time they were born.

     

  • i have an older sister, we are 2 yr 4 months apart and we are the best of friends.  we played together growing up and were sort of friends in high school, became best friends in the college years and have gotten even closer as we've become adults.
  • I only have 1 sister & she's 4 years older.  Although I do love her, there are alot of things that we are unable to share together since she has a mental illness.  It's so sad, I wish I could say that my sister is my BFF, but it will never happen.
