"OVER PROTECTIVE BIG SISTER"
Okay so I figured something out the other day. I know many people have little brothers and sisters and many people on here have an older brother or sister that they absolutely don't get along with. Well I'm in the Big sister category and I absolutely can't stand my little brother Jake. He's the most pig-headed, stubborn, has to have the last word in brother of all time. He treats me like crap and talks to mom and dad like he talks to me, like we're beneath him. It pisses me off to the point where I just want to slam his head into the wall! UGH! But you know what the funniest thing is? When I'm not around him and I'm hanging out with my boyfriend, who also has a little brother whose friends with mine, I become the biggest overprotective sister in the history of sisters.
The other day my brother was excited to go over to Brad's house (My boyfriend's house) for an Air Soft War. But Brad cancelled on him at the last minute, saying he had a party to go to. Jake came down to me after that and told me he didn't think Brad liked him very much. I denied it and said that Brad did like him.
Luckily I was going out with Mitchel that night and I was talking to him about it. I asked him. "Jake thinks that Brad doesn't like him? Is that true?" I could tell it put him on the spot and he wasn't sure how to say it. But he explained it as best he could. He said Brad liked Jake but not as a "come over and hang out whenever friend" He said Brad got annoyed with Jake sometimes because he was disrespectful of his things, which I can understand, Jake does do that sometimes.
But a funny thing happened. I wanted to cry because it was sad. See I never had real friends growing up like my brother did, and yeah, I was jealous as hell about it too. But as they got older, he's started to lose a lot of friends, and gain a few new ones. It just put me in a real bad way when I heard that Brad, though he still liked Jake, didn't like him that much. So I went from wanting to strangle my little brother, to crying because he was going to feel like he lost another friend.
Whenever he's hanging with his friends, I always tell them that they have to stick with Jake, that they have to be nice and hang out with him whenever he's there. Yet when we're alone we fight so much that we start to physically fight with eachother.
It's just one of those stupid things that is so weird about Big Brothers and Sisters. So if you have a little brother or sister and you can relate with this, go ahead and laugh your a** off at the Irony of it. But if you have a Bigger Brother or Sister that you fight constantly with, just know that they're always looking out for you when you're not around.
