Big brothers- how protective are you of your little sisters?
I protect my sister with my life. My siblings and I grew up very close, and we vowed to protect and care for each other through any situation. It may sound corny, but we know what happens and can happen in this world. Ever since a child in our family turned 5, they were to take self-defense classes (we take Kung Fu and jiu jitsu) so if anything were to happen, we could protect each other. Back on topic, my little sister is the popular type that has a lot of friends but limits her close friends. If anyone messes with her, I'm there. We have a 5 year age difference (17 and 12). There is no child abuse in our household, but if there was, I would have my little adopted Spanish bro (13) run to my good friend since birth's house for protection. (We have a system created for emergencies) and my older brother Nick (18) and I would take the beatings. We have a car and deiver's license, but it just depends on the scenario. As I said before, we have a system planned out. We've always been close, and we always will be.
Any girls who have all brothers, no sisters, your thoughts please?
I was just wondering if I can get some of your viewpoints if you are in this situation, or know someone who is. I have 3 sons, and one daughter who is the baby of the family. Their ages are 7, 3, 22 months and 11 months. On the one hand she's got it made right ? There will always be boys in our house, she'll probably have crushes on all her brother's friends. Since she's the baby i'm sure she'll be protected and sometimes smothered by them, never allowed to bring a boyfriend home, lol. And she'll probably have them wrapped around her little finger, driving her to the mall and giving her money. But seriously I am wondering if she'll be unhappy. If she'll always long for a sister, and be lonely because she'll feel they have each other and she doesn't have a sister to share things with. I don't know b/c I have 2 sisters and no brothers, but I know when I was younger I longed for the older brother. if any of you are in a family like this, i'd like to know your opinion. Thanks
Why do brothers run to hit those who flirt with their sisters when they themselves like to flirt and tease girls? Don't they feel like those girls might be someone else's sister?
One word answer : Sense of SecurityExplanation : No guy want to see his sister in a pathetic situation, atlast, she is her own. From what they believe, their decisions are the best for their sisters and that shouldn't be altered anyone from outside (which is obviously NOT true, her sister is also an independent creature). But on the other hand, if a girl is new to these stuffs, guy's perspective is also needed to know what that guy is thinking while flirting. There should be that level of frankness so that they can communicate easily and discuss few things. (Not for all the conversations though)Also, for few of us, it feels like "Heyy, This guy is flirting with my sister." which is again, an ego-point for guys, they don't want anyone who is inappropriate should even lookup at their sisters.Seeing most of the sister's behaviour (which is obviously very kiddish infront of her brother) he thinks that his sister is not mature enough to handle the flirts. (Not in my case)Now, then why do they flirt and tease then?It's because all the above are just lost and the only thing that remains in the head is to have fun. Sense of security is for the person whom they care for, not everyone! Sometimes they too want to experience the adrenaline rush while flirting.For ex : Say an instance happened with my friend, someone was committed with his sister from 7 years, but recently broke up because her sister being extra-possessive for him, and that guy is again flirting with his sister. Obviously, no brother would like this. Atlast, his sister is not a game which someone can play, move on and play again. But yes, as a brother, he can't do anything he can only suggest, final decision would be of his sister only. He could just hope for the well being for his sister.PS : I hardly flirt with any girl online, though I compliment few, but I personally feel flirting is merely a waste of time. Trust me, it is! Rather than, be confident and meet her up first time and compliment her.Thanks for A2A.
Why do older brothers hate for their younger sisters to date?
Well I have a younger sister and I'm the same way. We just feel like we have to protect you. That no guy will ever be good enough stuff like that. Also we don't want you to get hurt mentally and possible phically. Deep down your brother loves you and wants you to be happy. Although its hard to see sometimes.
What's the matter if I'm dating my own little sister?
She's got severe nervous breakdown when found out her boyfriend cheating on her... and she's been acting strange lately. Now she asks me to have date with her... My girlfriend also knows about her problem and support me to make her return normal again... Sometimes, some people can't understand my situation and just bad-mouthing us in our back... Luckily, I have a very nice and understanding girlfriend who accepts us just the way we are...(our parents have both passed away long time ago and I'm just living together with my sister in our small flat...) (I'm 20, my sister is 19, and my girlfriend is 18 years old.)
Are your older brother and sisters overprotective? Give me an example.
My oldest brother, Troy. Early on in my relationship with my current boyfriend, he decided my boyfriend wasn’t good enough for me. (Jobless, car-less, license-less = drop-kick loser in Troy’s head) He tried to talk me out of dating my boyfriend. He treated my boyfriend badly in an attempt to scare him off.A few years later, and after his earlier attempts hadn’t worked, he figured out that we were having a baby before we announced it. (We were waiting until the second trimester to announce it because of the risk of miscarriage in first trimester that runs in my family) He drove on his motorbike all the way from the city (where he lived) to my house in the suburbs (about 45 min to an hour drive) to tell us that we were too young to have a baby and weren’t ready for it. He gave us this huge lecture about it. (I had turned 21 two weeks before our daughter was born and my boyfriend was 26) I told him (keeping the secret of our pregnancy even then) that even if we were having a baby, I was still older than our mother was when she had Troy and his father wasn’t even around. (Troy’s dad was abusive, and Mum left with Troy and his then-unborn brother so the father couldn’t hurt them, and my mother was 20 when she gave birth to Troy).The only other instance I remember of one of my older brothers being overprotective is when my older brother Phil wouldn’t side with me against my mother, which is more about my mother being overprotective and my brother agreeing with her. She was adamant that I wasn’t allowed to walk from home to school alone as a teenager, when the walk was only 10 minutes. Phil, however, (5 years older) was allowed to walk from home to school alone as a teenager when we lived at least 30 minutes away from the school. Although it was around the time that a local boy, Daniel Morcombe, had been kidnapped, so I understand my mother’s overprotectiveness now.
Is my sister too young to date?
Ok so I'm 16 but my sister is 14 years old and this really hot 15 year old guy thinks she's really pretty and they're gonna go out to get to know each other (Like on a blind date or something) and my mom doesn't let her date but my sister says that first my mom will meet the guy and THEN make the decision to whether or not let her date him. Is she too young? I mean, I had lots of friends when I was her age that had relationships, and I'm still friends with some of them and 2 of those friends are now my age (16) and they're still dating they're middle school boyfriends. She's a really strong girl and she's not hurt easily. She moves on really fast, trust me. So do you think it's okay for her to date him? They both really like each other
Do big brothers ever stop being overprotective when it comes to their little sisters?
I have three older brothers,the oldest is 32,next is 24 and the youngest brother is 22. I'm 21 so I'm the baby AND the only girl out of our parents kids. My brother's have always been overprotective when it came to me. If a kid in school so much as bumped into me by accident my brother who's 22 would be ready to fight. He and I are the closest since we're only a little over a year apart. When have a love/hate relationship but he's the only one who can push me around,pick on me and talk about me. I tore my ACL at work and had to have surgery. Two of my brothers,the 24 year old and 22 year old flew out to stay with me until I can go back to work. They came before I had the surgery and of course when I awoke after surgery I was hurting,they almost got kicked out the hospital because of the way they acted until I was out of pain. Now that I'm home,I'm not allowed to get out of bed besides to go to the bathroom and for the time the doctor allows. They won't let me do a thing. I love them very much and I think they're amazing for all that they do. I'd do the same for them and I ask this because I honestly don't ever want them to stop: Do big brothers ever stop being so overprotective of their little sisters?
