I am not. I am female, 19 and my brother is 26. We still live in the same house with our mom but we are not close at all. We have nothing in common and we never hang out or even talk much. The only time I get to have a few minutes to speak to him is when he picks me up from the grocery store with my mom once a week. Even in the car, when I try to talk to him he has no interest in what I have to say. I'll ask him about what movies,music and interests he likes and he is so unresponsive it frustrates me. All he says is "I don't know" or something along those lines. The only thing we have in common is that we both like "The Simpsons" but even when I ask him about the show he has no interest in talking to me. It's so annoying. I know that he's my brother but I feel like I don't know him at all. I've tried to have real conversations with him but he just refuses to contribute. I don't anything REAL him, you know, like his religious beliefs, goals, hobbies and other stuff. He is also introverted but not as much as me. He won't even tell me the name of his friends or tell me anything about his work.
He's smart and is there for me if I need help with an online application or something like technical support for my laptop, but we don't have a friendship.
I think that if we were closer in age and the same gender, we'd be much closer. I really wish I had a sister. I could hang out with a sister and we could go shopping. You can't do that with a brother.
What do you think? Also, what about you guys?
