Older Brother.
Younger Sister.

I'm basically a carbon copy of my brother despite not growing up in the same house. We have very similar interests, hobbies and mannerisms.
Our values differ on a number of topics but my younger sister who I did grow up in close proximity to also has opposing opinions and values to me in a number of areas, so I think I'm just weird.

We all tend to get along although my sister is a teen aged girl which means that she knows everything and all of our actions are part of a master plan to ruin her life because we have some inexplicable desire to piss her off. Apparently.

I love my little sister, who's 4 years younger. She is in an awkward stage (Actaully has been for like 4 years) being a teenager, so hopefully she'll grow out of that soon. But generally we get along well. We play videogames together, watch anime together. Sometimes she can be annoying, and she is a bit spoilt to the annoyance of myself and my parents, but she's a good kid.

She does bring out the childish side in me though. We often have little arguments and play fights, and make fun of each other, all in jest though.

I have just one brother and we are different in almost every way. (Apart from being tall and skinny).

He enjoys sports, I enjoy gaming.
He is socially extroverted with a ton of friends, I am introverted with just a couple.
He is really punctual and worrys about getting things done, I am lazy and laid back.
He is a christian, while I am atheist.

Despite this however, we get along really well. Havn't had a fight or argument in over 4 years now.

I'm the youngest of 3 kids, with an older sister and an oldest brother (only ~2 years between me and my sister, and ~2 years between her and my brother). We don't talk too much even though we see each other a lot. But as has been proven time and again, we all know that we can count on each other if need be, so I'm happy with our relationship as siblings. :)

I get along with my two older sisters very well. We've always been close.
That said one has moved to Oxford for a year to study and the other might be moving to Denver for a year also so it's been difficult. I'm not used to my sister's leaving.

My sister is 12 years older than me.

But were closer than twins. She's more of a mother to me than my own damn mom and i can go to her for anything at all.
I wouldn't describe my sister as close as a twin but otherwise you're pretty much just like me. Did you look at the OP and say "Yup, that's me."?

*Sigh* I feel envious of your relationship with your siblings guys.

I mean my sister is almost completely opposite to me.

She likes to drink, I don't want to touch a drink...ever.
She has had multiple number of boyfriends, I have only dated one girl.
She likes to go out and party, I like to stay in and stay on the computer.
She have lots of friends, I have one best friend and a few distant friends. (My best friends sister is a close friend)
She feels like an athiest, I am a Christian who goes to church every week. (may as right, its right across from me)

Among this, we rarely talk unless she needs a favor (money) or go on a family holiday.
Hell, even my best friend is close to his little sister, which I have got closer to over the years.

I mean I do care about my sister since she is family, its just that I don't feel too close to her.
I doubt that is going to change.

Sister two years older than me. We get along very well and I'd probably say I'm closer to her than I am to either of my parents.

I'm very close to my sister. We're like best friends.
We're both really similar: we have similar interests, stances, we're both shut-ins...

My sister and I have had a very tough relationship. She's a year and a half older than me, so we grew up at the same time. I always thought she was a bit weird and behaved strange, so we ended up fighting very often when I tried to correct her behaviour. Wasn't until recently we found out she has Aspbergers(not the self-diagnosed kind)...
I'm not sure how to react to it. Feels pretty fucked up that everything that made her personality is due to AS.

Nothing has really changed. Haven't spoken to her for over six months due to a fight. I'm tired of it and can't be arsed having to be the one to apologise anymore. We had gotten along fairly well the past few years, but I've still held a grudge against her behaviour.
When she moved out two years ago I got told about it by my mom the night before she left. That's when my mom found out as well. -_-'

My brother is three years old. He left for University, I had to stay with my mom. We were never particularly close, I Skype with him everyonce in a while. Not much to say. We have nothing in common and he wasn't ever that kind to me. I don't miss him, he always ate my food and took my xbox time.
Despite all that I still feel like he abandoned me a little. It's not his fault, though, I guess. Whatever.

I'm 19 and I got a 16 year old younger brother who (lately) I've been getting along with well. We used to get at each other's throats constantly, but now we sort of settled down. He can be the most whiny little shit at times, but I've gotten used to it. There's still times when his mere presence pisses me off, but I've learned to control that.

I have an older brother who's about 24ish, that lives across the country because of the army. Likewise, we used to always hate each other when we were living together, but when he moved out and started a family, he really mellowed out. He also had a pretty tough deployment, so I think a lot of it is him kind of feeling like he got a lucky break out there. We don't talk to often, maybe once every other week or so, but we do get along pretty good.

I have the feeling that once I'm out living on my own I'll become a lot nicer to them.

Well my siblings are triplets and 3 years younger than me. My brother I can't stand. He is arrogant and lazy. One minute he'll be trying to get on my good side by sucking up but if I refuse whatever he's wanting he turns and calls me a 'psycho *****' and all kinds of insults. I started ingnoring him about a year ago when he abused my mum and walked about because she wanted him to pay for a trombone that he was too lazy to return and she'd been billed for. I've lost count of the amount of time just this month that I've tripped over his things lying around.

My middle sister and I have a odd relationship. She's is a manipulative attention seeker with some sort of mental problems. To me she is mostly polite (probably because I punched her when she tried to attack me a few years ago) but to everyone else she is always trying to guilt trip them. Twice she has 'attempted suicide' as a way to get back at my mum. I hate what she does to people but because she's always nice to me I would feel wrong about ignoring her like I do my brother but at the same time I can't be sympathetic towards her because for the most part her depression is an act.

My other sister who is the oldest I get along with great because we're very similar. We both have to death with our other siblings problems and our mums favouritism. I don't think I've ever had a fight with her.

I'm also about to have 5 step-siblings but I haven't spent very much time with them so I just get along with them ok.

Wait a second... Are you my other personality. Did I stop my meds or something because that is almost a carbon copy of me and my brother.

Well except I have a step sister who I use to fight when I was younger, she's got a hell of a left hook.

My sister is about two and a half years older than me, and we get along well enough. That's all we really need. Well enough.

I think when my older sister and I were really young, we used to never get along. But now that we're older, we're pretty cool with each other. Sometimes we hang out in the basement to watch "Star Trek: The Next Generation" while playing "Fallout 3" and talking about random, humorous stuff.

Two brothers, both younger. First one is my exact opposite (he's basically a hippy without the drugs, while I'm a metalhead D&D nerd) but we get along fine. The other thinks the sun shines out of my arse. He can be a pain sometimes, but he's ok
