Ok.. first off.. I want to tell you about two sisters... one is tall, one is short... one can grow her hair long without a problem.. the other tries her best.. gets fed up.. and finally gets a hair cut... one totally took after her mom in looks, and the other took totally after her father... The older sister... got with her first serious boyfried at 17, had her first child at 18, and they have been together for ten years and the little sister is now 22, wanted to get married at one point and time.. and had planned to have her first child by age 25... lol.. I don't think that she is gonna make that goal. She'll probably be lucky to nab a serious boyfriend by then. ;-) Guess which one I am? I'm the little sister... that took after her mother and is the shorty of the family. It is kind of weird.. she did what I had planned on doing.. and kind of sort of what I wanted to do... where I get to go out whenever I want and do whatever I want. I have accepted that I haven't went through with the ten year plan that my LA teacher made us write in my journal. It just bugs me to look at my sister.. and it seems like in some way.. at different times we both get I don't know.. jealous isn't the word.. but something close. Valentines day.. and holidays suck for me being single.. I really don't have anyone that puts me first during those times.. but luckily I have nephews and nieces that I can put first. She feels bad when I get to go out at a moments notice.. and let my hair down.. and you know.. lol.. just doin some window shopping... my sister is a great sister... and I hope that I am too... but like normal sisters.. lol.. we do have our moments.. It is just.. where do we find our happy mediums... and where do we draw the line where the other is concerned? I don't know... Just wonderin if anyone out there has anything like the same problems? Hope to hear from ya...

I was about 22 or 23 before my younger brother and I became really close. I think we had to get past adolescence aways before we could overcome the cliches that come with growing up.. We're great friends now and the only problem is our cell phone bill from talking twice a day or so.

Chelle, if you guys come to terms with each other's life style and individuality, I think things we be "All Good" before you know it.. Leave pride and opinion out of it, and just deal with each other as friends.

Awww.. well thank you for your kind words :-D. My sister has been there for me for really tough times... she is a good sister... but our lives have lead us down totally opposite paths. There are alot of things about her life that I don't understand.. and there are alot of things about my life that she doesn't understand... lol.. but we work together.. and pool our finances together to take care of our family. I will admit that I am jealous of her being able to start a family at a young age... but I have grown up.. and I know that if it happens it will happen when the time is right.. lol.. but all in all.. I just wish her the best of luck with her life and choices.. and I know she feels the same way about me. We are really close despite all of our differences.. and I think time will only make us closer :-).

I'm really sorry to hear that... but you put your best foot forward and tried to contact him... so all you can do is wait for him to overcome whatever it is bothering him.. and maybe just work on opening up the communication lines.

Sincerely,

Chelle

I'm actually the youngest of 4 girls and they all have kids and are married and me I'm single and child free... we've all had diffrences growing up as well... I find myself closer to them now because of that..and closer to my nieces and nephew too. I may never be in a serious enough relationship again to have kids but I get to expierience alot through them. There are perks and downsides no matter which perspective you take. My sister has two kids...no free time at all... but she has these two little beings that adore the crap outta her. My happy medium here is to take the kids out occasionally..let her go get her hair done/nails done/ sit and stare at the wall in a quiet house... and I get to play cool aunt who buys em junk food and plays the games with them.

My lil bro and me use to fight like cats and dogs.. Right down to fist fights. We were always in competition with each other.. I was the older out spoken one that always got the laughs.. He was the baby that got spoiled and was shy.. He got married, and has a better job them me I feel. I feel that lil sting at times.. I always worked my a$$ off around the house and at every job I have worked.. But still in all. I AM HAPPY FOR HIM. .he’s my bro and I love em. We shared so many personally things together growing up

Were don’t fight now and care about each other and talk almost every day.. He even asked me today to pray for his dog.

That is awesome... let me tell ya... I know about that sting... :-D But like you said I am happy for her. I love her dearly, and we even work together now. I went to college for two years and because of bad circumstances I had to quit.... now it is her turn.. she is lookin into goin to college... and I don't openly brag in front of her face... but I've told a few of my friends about it... and I am truly proud that she is gonna try and do this. I just don't want to say anything.. cuz she is new into goin to college.. and I don't want to try to push her into doin something that she doesn't want to go into... that is kinda the way I felt when it was time for me to go to college... I was the first one.. and they all told me... you need to do this... you need to do that... and I got fed up with it. So.. I just kinda try to tell everyone to let her make her own decisions and to leave her ALONE! :-D I know that someday.. somehow.. the pieces of my life will fall together.. and everything will be alright. So yep.. lol.. I just gotta be patient... and my sister will be there every step of the way.. supporting me... and I am gonna try to do the same thing also.
