Do you have a good relationship with your siblings?

I have two older brothers and two younger sisters. I feel the only thing I have in common with them, was are parents. I see them once a year at the family reunion.

I compare myself to my twin terribly but have generally had a good, but over the past 3 decades distant relationship with him. I did some bad things to my younger brother growing up and a big part of my psychosis was tremendous feelings of guilt from those sins. However after years of reconciliation and after months of not seeing him a visit to his house for one of his delicious meals to pet the dog and catch up makes things seem OK. I can’t say I’ve had a wonderful time with my siblings all my life and there are many low points with both of them but we went through a lot of bad times together and brothers will fight and love just the same.

No.
I love them but we are not close.

I would like to have a better relationship with them.

There is a pretty big age gap between us.

Yeah now we are good but as kids and teenagers and young adults I often fought with my older sister. Really did treat her pretty poorly in places but I did have some serious paranoia. Anyways. We are all good now and that is a good thing…

My older sister is very accomplished. Two degrees and really earns some bread but that is life. I don’t try to compete and that is just pointless but we still look out for each other as we can.

My brother is 2 years younger than me and although he is a successful and busy executive, we are still pretty close.
I treated him like crap many times as kids because of my illness but he managed to forgive me as adults.

He leads a busy and full life and recently went through a bitter divorce.
I can relate and helped him through it because I went through a divorce years ago.

We don’t see each other very often even though he lives like 7 minutes away from us.

He will call me on the phone practically everyday to see how I’m doing.

I love my brother and am proud of what he has achieved.

He can be a bit cocky at times and we are very much different people but we are still pretty close.

It’s a working progress.

We are not enemies but we are not close

All my siblings are so different to one another I like that

3 older sisters here. Tbh they are very busy so I don’t talk to them much. But I know if things got bad they would help out

My sister is like a second mother to me. She’s 15 years older than me and understands mental illness better than my mom and I bare all my ugliest emotions to her and she never judges me. I love her so much!

My two brothers (13 years and 10 years older than me) I get along with fine too but not so close to them. I message them every now and then.

I grew up with my siblings under one roof. But we are living now seperate lifes. We catch up on xmas. I still don’t know who they are. My sz separated me from my family.

My sister is bipolar (I think), and she is VERY argumentative and so, is very hard to get along with and she yells a lot too. I try not to be around her except on special days like holidays and birthdays.

My brother is not MI at all and is a total sweetheart. He lives far away in another state and he works a lot so, I rarely see him or talk to him unfortunately.

I have 2 full and 2 half brothers. My full brothers are in TX and AL, and my 2 half brothers are in MA. With 1 exception, I’m closer to each more than ever.

I always wanted a sister. I tend to get along with males, for that reason… if I ever do remarry, I’d love to have SIL.

Me and my brother fought tooth and nail when we were younger. But I feel our relationship has gotten a lot better now we are older (and now I’m not such a hormonal dick)

I’ve got a good relationship with all my siblings. We support each other.

Who am I kidding.
My brother can be a self centered, arrogant and selfish ass hole.

My cousin married a guy like that.

My paternal uncle is known as the a** hole in the family. Idk everyone calls him that. I remember spending weekends at his house and he always ordered Dominos pizza for dinner and made chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast.


My sister lives with me. She only makes like $700/month. She just got out of an abusive marriage. We get along good. She’s a little OCD about cleanliness. I’m not so…
