Are you close to your siblings?

[wordbox]

My sister is one of my best friends. Wasn't always that way, and of course we still drive each other crazy, but we're fortunate to be good friends. We talk and see each other regularly. We're lucky!

My siblings and I are very close (two sisters and 1 brother). We basically consider each other best friends. Even if our friends stab us in the back, we know there is no way we would do that to each other. It's funny but one of my sisters and I share a bad habit of selecting the worst friends. We still grate on each other's nerves sometimes but most of times, we get along. All of us share similar interests - what's most important is that my sisters and I share the same love for clothing and handbags!

I am the baby. My older sisters are about 18 mo. and 3 yrs older than me. Growing up once we hit puberty we somewhat went our separate ways as we each had different personalities and goals. Before that there waw always a 2 against 1 going on which stunk because being the baby I was usually the one. I am closer to my older sister than the middle in part because we both have children now and share that common ground. My middle sister is cool but I can only take her in small doses because she seems to live in this bubble where eveything seems to be about her.

I am glad to watch my girls grow up. Two years apart and they seem to be headed in the BFF direction which I think is great. Hopefully during puberty they will still be able to tolerate each other and continue to bond and make it through with a strong friendship.

Very close with my brother and sister. We know pretty much everything about each other and when one has a problem, the other is always there to help. I did not get along with my sister up until I was about 22 yrs old, but after that, we have become best friends.

This sounds so much like me and my brother, except I'm the one that's close to our parents and he's the odd one out. We were close when we were young and played together all the time being only 2 years apart, but things deteriorated in our teens and have gotten worse in our twenties. Now I see my parents all the time but the three of us hardly see or talk to my brother, and when we do he picks fights most of the time or tries to turn us against each other. I don't think we'll ever be friends.

Yes I am very close to my twin sister. It's like having a built in best friend. We've always been close.

I currently live with my sister, so yeah we're kinda close. Before we live together, we barely talk to each other.

We are very close. There's only two of us and we're three years apart (im younger). We used to fight a lot but as we got older we've grown closer. As a matter of fact he went with DF and I to vegas for our 4 year anniversary. He had just gotten dumped to we invited him to join. It ruined our romantic time together but at least he had a great time.

I have a younger brother (21) and I consider him to be my best friend...we weren't as close when we were younger, but now that we are in our twenties we've gotten really close. It's really important for me to be a strong force in his life so that I can make sure he always stays on the right path :)

I have 2 siblings, 1 older brother and 1 older sister. My brother is in 'his own little world' and my sister and I are 2 years apart. Growing up we did not get along because I was the rebel in the family so my sister had to play sheriff for my parents. (Boo) But as we gotten older our relationship has improved and we are much closer than before. We hang out, go shopping, chit chat about guys and relationships, etc. She is my best friend and I know I can always count on her and she know I will do the same!

We're getting closer as we get older which is nice.

I have two older sisters and we are not close at all. I am younger by eight years, so we've never been into the same things at the same time. I have one sister that I haven't spoken to in over a year. No bad blood, we just aren't close. There is a bit of hard feelings between me my other sister. She was very cruel to my dad before he died and I just cannot forgive her for it. When I go to my mom's, I play nice and smile, but there's always that underlying uncomfortableness (is that a word?). Unfortunately, when my mom is gone, I'll probably never see or speak to either one of them again.

I am the middle child, with an older sister and younger brother. We are very close and I consider them to be my best friends. I love them both so much, and it's funny because we fall into the typical birth order with our personalities and how we deal with each other. Sis is the bossy one and my brother is the baby, eight years younger than me, ten years younger than sister. It all works!!

[~Fabulousity~]

my sister is 3 yrs older she's never been there for me when needed and within the last year I have come to realize she will always be selfish and put herself first no matter what. I accept that and with deal with her accordingly.
