Do you have brothers? How do you deal with them? / myLot

September 6, 2018 10:56am CST

I have a brother who is younger than me. Even if I am his big sister, he bullied me. We never could get along. Now he is far away and he never calls me. I am in Europe and he is in USA. We have a distant relationship. I don't know if for you it's the same. Something happened and our relationship has worsened. I always fighted with my brother. If you have brothers how do you get along with them? I think brothers should be our best friends. They have to support us in this tough life. Image credits: http://unisci24.com

I have two brothers and we get along just fine - help and support each other whenever the need arises. It serves us well to be in touch as we share the same parents - siva

My brother used to be a very good friend. Not anymore. Now we have a polite relationship, but that is all.

I have a brother. We have not always been in good terms, but our relationship has improved, maybe because he lives in another city and we do not call each other often...

I have two brothers and we get along very well. It's true that there are some ups and downs in our relationship but we are always there to support each other.

My brother and I love each other. We live in the same state and he bought a condo in the same complex as us in Florida, too. We had our arguments as kids, but we are closer than ever. I'm so sorry you and your brother have distanced yourselves. How about a friendly text or phone call to break the ice?

I am sorry to hear about the not so good relationship with your brother. Yes brothers can be good for us and protective. But my brother also I only have one is all over this big country and now he is a complete stranger no contact. It is sad.

I have nine brothers, and most of the times they wre very supportive. The only brother that i remember having a fight with was the one who is one year older than me, that is when we were younger. I don't remember having any fight with the others, especially as we grow older. I have respect for them. Simple rule for keeping a harmony with family - Respect elders and love and care for younger members.

I have cousin brothers. From my childhood they are not so close relationship with them. We have a hi and bye relationship. I don't feel sad thinking that I have no brother.
