have you ever been jealous with your sister?

My sisters and I are gettling along well with one another. we care about one another, so we don't have any sibling jealousy in our family. But to tell the truth, one of my brothers seemed so. When I was young, in a primary school, I was quite good at studying any subject and often praised by my teachers and parents. My parents really love me. I was a good girl, but my brother was naughty, poor in his study, so he was often criticized. He felt really a little unbalanced when he was young. Now he's grown up and kind to me, we are getting along well with each other.

As the younger sister, I looked up to my older sister. I wanted to be just like her. But as much as I wanted to be like her....that's how different we were. She was the "good" one. I was the hellion. She was the "straight A student". I averaged C's. You get the idea. All of our parent's friends would always take to Pam so easily. They thought she was the greatest thing since sliced bread. I, on the other hand, was the "problem" child. This was especially true of our neighbors who lived across the street from us. One year, they gave my sister a very special painting the husband had done. It was of a young girl in olden times standing on a street corner. The signs for the streets were named after Pam....her first name and last name. We all thought it was beautiful and I couldn't wait to see what I was going to get for my birthday.

A few days before the event, I overheard my mother and her friend talking about my birthday. When my mother realized that the woman hadn't gotten me a present, she insisted that she do so, stating that her daughters weren't going to be treated differently. When my birthday arrived, the lady brought me a volleyball. I thanked her for it, took it outside, stuck a pin through it and deflated it before throwing it out into the yard. Then I walked back inside, past my mother and her friend and into my room. After the neighbor left, my mother insisted on finding out why I had acted the way I did. Even though I was mischevious I was never rude to adults because that got me into serious trouble with my mom. When I explained that I had overheard them talking and that I didn't want a present that was given to me because my mother made her do it, my mom was pretty cool about it all. Still, I can remember being so jealous of the fact that all the older people thought Pam was so great and I wasn't.

It's funny. Now that we are both grown with families of our own, we have talked about our childhood days. How close we were and all that and jealousy has been brought up. It's funny to know that she was just as jealous of me as I was of her. Who would have guessed? Certainly not me.

Oh yeah, I've been jealous of my sisters for different reasons. My younger sister seems to be a favorite of my parents--so of course I'm jealous of that. And one of my older sisters has a wonderful life; good husband, beautiful house, handsome/healthy little baby, she's beautiful, a job she loves...man! Jealousy! lol. But this jealousy doesn't have an 'ugly head'...I am very happy for my sister, and I love her:) She deserves the life she has.

i have a younger sister, 11 years younger to be exact. i love her and we get along well- now that we are both married and have children we have more in common and i am sure that helps. but i have to admit i get jealous of her alot lately. i don't know if it's jealous of her of of her situation. she and her husband and 6-month old twins are living with my parents right now. my brother and i were angry when we found out, but i am pretty much over that now. now i just get jealous at times. she is a great mom- more patient than i could ever be. but she does not work, and i do, and sometimes i would love to be able to not have to work. i guess what really bothers me is that she has the opportunity for my parents to be helping her out every day with her kids. since she lives with them, i know that they will watch the twins if she has errands to run, or while she takes a shower, or whatever. i know that she doesn't take advantage of them, but i get so jealous of that! my boys are 3 and 1, and i feel so stressed some days and would love to just have someone here to watch them for 10 minutes while i take a shower in peace, not worrying about what they are getting into, are they killing eachother, etc. or the opportunity to go out and run errands without having to drag them with me every single time. my dad was coming over last year for a while, like once a week, and would sit with the boys all morning while i did things, but he stopped doing that. i am not sure why, but i miss it. and my mom never really comes over, which hurts. but that makes me even more jealous of the fact that my sister gets not only their help, but their time, and gets to see them every day.

It is normal to experince some sibling rivarly and jealousy... I have been in a similar situation. I am the baby of the family, and my dad actually delivered me at home, at my grandmother's house. So, needless to say, I was daddy's little girl. My sister and 2 brothers are all two years apart, then 5 years later, I came along. So there is a pretty big age gap in between my oldest sibling and myself.
I was so jealous of their relationship. They were so close, and they got to go out and experience growing up together. I was used to staying at home while they went out and went to clubs, or went out and got their first tattoos together. I was always alone. So, once I became the age to go out and have fun, they have all been married and even children, so we never got to have fun together like that. I understood that it had nothing to do with love, when my father gave them more freedom than myself, it was just that I was sooo jealous of their relationship. So I do understand. All parents love their children equally.:) It took me a LONG time to realize that.

Yes. When I was a kid I was jealous of my younger sister, because I thought my mom loves her more than me. Because of that reason I use to fight with her often. That didn't happen with my elder sister as she was a very loving and caring person from the day I can remember even though she was only 1 year older than me. Later when I grew up I realized that mom had to give more attention because my younger sister was very much younger than I. Later I did not feel jealous of her. Now all 3 of us are together in happy times and bad times both. We are so close that no one can break our bond.

I sometimes felt envious than jealous. I envy her because she is intelligent she is good in Math and she have a talent when it comes to playing music instrument. On the other side I don't know if she envy me too because I also have different talent. But that enviousness is with different level and I think it is on the good side. When it comes to our parents, of taking of us, I think they both took care of us and we all know parents love and guide their children.Me and my sister share everything under the sun so jealousy is at least and never been a problem.

I have a twin sister and ever since i was a kid i never had any circumstances wherein i could say that i got jealous with her for anything or something . I am not the jealous type of person i consider everything or anything that is happening to us as something that it should be so never i get jealous of her not even once .

I get on well with my sister though sometimes I do feel jealous of her since she is more beautiful. On the other hand, I find my balance since I am smarter, lol. Oh, well, I am being narcissistic somehow.

Ha ha, yes I was at times jealous of my Sis...

She was the younger one & the cuter one (in my opinion - but she says I'm the cuter one now!:) - & is jealous of me being thin! lol I still think she's prettier than me!)

I think some sibling rivalry is normal. We do love each other & even if we bicker sometimes, when it matters we really stand up for each other & help each other etc.
