I have sworn off getting roped into things where my brother or sister are there, for just that reason - I wouldn’t ever have anything to do with them if they were strangers.
So now it’s Granny’s birthday and only because Granny mopes if I don’t want to play Norman Rockwell painting.
I don’t know. I’m pretty different from the siblings both belief wise and culture wise. Got hope for baby brother though.
Younger brother - if we happened to meet, I could see us being buddies, though not best friends.
Middle brother - maybe - again, if we happened to meet.
Oldest brother - nope. We’re way too different. We talk and such, sure, but not regularly or anything.
FUCK NO! on all counts.
Oldest surviving “brother” is an asshole. I would only go to his funeral if there was a buffet. (Man, this sounds like “Scrooge”)
Other brother is okay, a nice enough guy, but if he weren’t related, I’d have nothing to do with him. Ever.
Sister is BatShit CraZy. Period. I really have a problem with letting her visit my child. She is that nuts. Seriously crazy. The kind of person who you read about in the paper that they find dead under a ton of garbage with cats feasting on the corpse for the last month. Very unsavory. I’ve tried to help, with no avail.
But then again, I’m sure they would all say the same about me, too. By my own admission, I’m a total Dick. I’m just like my (our) Dad, who they seem to like to slag (despite him providing for everything they have ever had, to this day).
Nope, those guys are all assholes – just like their old man.
My older brother, not a fucking chance.
My oldest sister and I are close and we would still be friends.
My second older sister and I are quite different so it’s hard to say.
My younger brother. Nay.
I’m the youngest of four girls.
I adore Sis 1, and I’m her favorite as well, but we probably wouldn’t have had an opportunity if we weren’t sibs, there’s a ten year age gap. We also have very little surface stuff in common, its the below the surface similarities that we recognize in each other that keeps us close but how would we have had a chance to figure that out if we weren’t siblings, eh?
Can’t stand Sis 2 now, would never tolerate her if I didn’t have to.
Sis 3 is okay, kinda codependent and that would probably make me keep her at arm’s length if we weren’t sibs.
