Is is true that TRUE FRIENDS are better sometimes than your siblings?

Hello again Amigo, This is a case to case basis just like u have said. With my siblings,i am sure they would stay with me through thick and thin and i have proven that many times. With my friends,i also had proven some of my internet friends stays with me thru thick and thin,and i also had proven that many times. It is maybe,becoz,i also shows to my siblings and friends that,they can depend on me in times of troubles.I had come to the extent of involving myself in serious matters just to defend a friend.I always defend someone as long as i know that they are on the right side,and i hate people abusing people who they thought smaller than them.(i really hate it," if they have the right...i fight with them")

NO matter what, i will always trust my brother,as compared to my best or true frenz.. ONly thing is for sure, family members wont hurt each other.. And that, between siblings, there are no hatred, unless it's something very very serious.. haha =D Because in a family, there's a certain bond in there whereby true frenz does not have with us.. Though i might not be as close to my brother, still, i will trust him when it matters ^_^

however there is an old saying you can choose your friends but you can't choose your familly

for me,i have not meet a friend i can do everything for he or she.but i can do everything for my siblings.and blood is thicker than water,only your siblings can do everything in spontaneous.

Yeah there are really instances that its true...it is because our bestfriends are always there to guide,support and care for us...then they are like our twin soul...we always count on them whenever problems arises while to our siblings is not always like that...cause they also have their own lives to take care of and even if they would say that they care for us sometimes saying it is just not enough...its always better that they show it to us and that's a fact that we should accept so instead of leaning to our brothers and sisters we prefer to talk to our bestfriends...

In some instances, I am more comfortable with my friends than my siblings. Honestly, I have a lot of secrets that I have shared with my friends that my siblings do not know about. I don't know why, but I feel more at ease with them than with my siblings. Maybe because they have their own friends. It might be the age gap that is keeping me and my siblings not as comfortable with each other as we are with our own friends.

..well, as you said, this is a case to case basis.. there are siblings who could be your bestfriend at the same time.. Of course there are also friends who are better than your siblings because you have known your friends better than you siblings.. Sometimes, this is because siblings didn't grow together that's why they are not that close enough to establish friendship among themselves.. For me, I still look up to my siblings better than my best friends..

hello daddy! well,on my part, i do love my brother more than anybody else next to my parents and my husband...but of course, he is too young, for me to share my problems on him...and i feel like i am the one who have to support him...even if i am comfortable saying him how or what i feel, still i will not do that... there are some things that my friends will understand and relate more...not because they are closer to me, but because i feel that they will be the right one to share my feelings with... my brother is 10 years younger than me and of course he's a man...and so no way that he will understand some of my sentiments! hehe but i wish i have a sister...but my mom...she's my very best friend and i can share and tell her everything! but now, i guess i found one new friend, who's almost like a sister to me and even we treat each other now as bestfriends! and of course people like you are also a good friend that i know i can turn to in time...

Hello Mobhomeir, This is an interesting discussion. I have 3 sisters and 1 brother. For me all my family members are come first in my mind. I will strongly to get true siblings rather than true friends. I agree that blood is thicker than water. This is all about my opinion on this discussion. No matter what case or what status, I would select own sibling first, then second option will go to friends. I am not saying friends are not important. But so far I still not yet get a friend that is as good as my own sibling. But still I HAVE some best friends around me!

there is no point of comparison. i love my brothers so much. the eldest and my little bro. the thing is, we cannot expect them to understand everything coz we can only share some sentiments to some friends. :)

i agree with this statement. because based on my experienced i am very closed with my best friend than my siblings. and i have more trust to my closed friends than my sister/brother. my best friends are better than my siblings because my friends give me advices when i have a problem but my sister doesn't do it .
