My sister's 3 years older then me and we get along great. wasn't always so though, we've had epic battle. Then one day we just grew out of it. none of my friends can relate cause they mostly argue with their siblings.

I have an elder sister, three years older than me. I think she tried the whole mean big sister game but it just didn't work out and we became very close friends. I realise how lucky I am when I compare to my mother's messed up relationship with her siblings, she constantly says how envious she is of me and my sister.

She's currently in South Korea teaching English with her boyfriend. A thoroughly decent bloke though I've only met him in person twice. I miss her but we catch up on Skype every now and then.

Non-existent.

I grew up thinking I was an only child.

However, I recently found out that I have a half-sister that doesn't know I exist and is about six years my junior.

Just... eh, I don't know. Not too good, I guess.
My brother is roughly 2 years younger than me, and when we were still living together as a family we fought constantly, sometimes rather violently. Time and distance between us has helped improve our relationship somewhat, and we're more relaxed and even friendly to each other when we meet (which is about two or three times a year).
However, I also deeply resent him for being a horribly irresponsible, unreliable twat. He's been an on-and-off druggie for 8 years now, meddling in things that go way past pot and the like, and he can't seem to clean up his act. It continues to be a major stressor for our dad, and that's probably what I hate most about this mess; the man is 75, and raging and worrying about my brother's habit is going to put him in the grave one of these days. It doesn't help that my brother's always unavailable because he doesn't have a phone (landline or mobile), and he doesn't call for weeks on end, contributing further to the bad blood between him and dad.
It's tragic, really. My brother is such a clever guy, capable of achieving greatness when he actually gets of his ass to combine his natural talents with hard work and discipline, but instead he keeps teetering on the edge, continually wasting his enormous potential. It's frustrating and aggravating beyond measure.

By the way, if half-siblings are included on the list, things look better on that front.
I have a half-brother and half-sister from our dad's first marriage (they're 50 and 47 respectively), and I love them both to bits. Seeing how we all live hundreds of kilometres apart I don't get to see them often, but when we do get together it's always good times.

I have 5 that I've met and anywhere from 2-5 that I haven't.

Even the 5 that I've met I don't give a damn about.

My little sister and I are close. Sure, we have a bit of a sibling rivalry at times, and have fallouts, but they are short-lived.

Half-brother a few years younger than me, we grew up together so we've always played/fought as kids. Grew out of it now, we live together as roomies and rarely speak, but get along well enough regardless. Three others even younger still live with their dad now, broken out of contact with them. Even more half-siblings on my dad's side, I've never spoken to them though.

I'm am the youngest of six. I have four brothers & one sister.My oldest brother is old enough to be my father which is kinda odd & we have very similar personalities. My sister(16 years older than me) & I get along pretty good, we even carpool to work every morning. The next youngest brother to me(13 years older than me) is the one that got me into gaming, we used to play games all weekend long, but he has his own family now so that doesn't happen too often anymore. Of my other two brothers one wants to run everyone elses life & the other will always be an ass, but they are still family so i just try to avoid them.

One younger by just over 2 years, autistic brother. I may be the older sibling but due to his disability he always (quite rightly) had the most attention growing up. Sometimes now I feel like a third parent to him, although he has made a lot of progress over the past 5 years. We're now 23 and 21 respectively.

Your sister sounds awesome, Red.

As for me, we all get on now we're adults and moved out. My sister is five years older than me and we used to fight like cat and dog when we were kids, had many fights and fall outs and there was a few black eyes and bruises along the way >w<; She's still a bit of a pain to be around and she has a terrible judge of character so we sometimes argue about that.

My brother is eight years older than me and I don't have that many memories of us living together because he moved out when he was about 17. We don't really fight and we never have. He gets insanely protective of me, more than he does with my sister. He used to babysit me and let me drink WKD and watch horror films, which is probably why I'm so messed up now xP

I have five siblings. Four are younger than me, but the oldest one, my sister, is one of my best friends. We watch movies and play video games together (she kicks ass at Tekken).

We all have bonded together because we all have been though so much together, that we all rely and depend on each other. My 13 year old sister and I have bonded more since my older sister moved out, and I love the relationship that we have.

As for my 12 year old brother, we watch cartoons (Regualr Show and Adventure Time FTW!) together and play video games (I have beaten every Gears of War game with him). I share a room with him, so we have a cool brotherly bond.

My youngest siblings (7 and 9, respectively) are kind of the outcasts in the family. They are the babies of our family and they get away with everything. But other than minor annoyances, they are still fun kids.

My older sister and I have basically raised all of our siblings, so we represnt a kind of other mother and father figures.

All in all, I love my siblings. I feel bad for the people who hate their siblings. They are really missing something great in their lives.

BTW: Good thread, bro. This is a good topic.

I have a brother who's about four years younger than me. We've always gotten together well, though. We have a similar taste in sci-fi, and he has a great sense of humor.

My brother is 3 years older than me and we get along fine. Not best mates but we don't argue or annoy each other.
My sister is 3 years younger than me and we don't get along at all.
