Same. I often heard that such a thing is a rarity, and that siblings don‘t usually have such good relations. But feels pretty normal to me.
Well neither of our pops werent worth a damn...her's died when she was in her teens,but rarely spent time together.
My asshole pops left when i was 2 or so.....
My grandfather died when i was like 7...then my uncle was suppose to step up and take care of my gma.but the dumbass couldnt stay out of prison...so needless to say i became somewhat of a patriarch at a very young age.
Being the man of the house for my moms,gma and sis.....
Not to mention my gma took on my cousins (14yrs apart) to raise because my aunt had (clean now for like 5yrs,im so proud of her) a cocaine addiction.

So needless to say...our little group is very close knit.

Thanks @riki
I know you would understand. :XD
No problem :)

I'm like that as well. I'm content being single and doing my own things. I remembered reading a post on FB in which the guy says the best thing about being single is that you are free to do anything you want and don't have anyone wanting to know where you are going. LOL

I have a friend who is similar to me and our mantra is we're not going to look for love, love will find us. When it happens, it happens (her aunt first got married in her forties). ^^ Until then, we're enjoying the single life. :XD

Wow..you're so lucky to have found a friend similar to you..I might have to search to the ends of the earth. ..my close friends are clingy. I take breaks from them.

Hey, @gnut :clingyyou're a wise uncle, don't forget you have many cute nephews and nieces here (with dubious origins that you can't explain:XD). Farfy and I will treat you with some good brazilian culinary when you come.

I don‘t have a translated version of Bia‘s version :/ But if you say so I‘ll believe you.
Ah, here it is (free translation):
"Não conhecia essa, Farfy. É uma lenda um tanto macabra :s (apesar de eu entender que é só uma forma de dizer que o homem se alimenta da natureza)"

"I didn't know this legend, Farfy. It's kinda a macabre legend :s (although I understand it's just a way to say that man feeds from nature)"

And Gry, I've finally watched it. It has been a while since I cried that much with animes :emocat a roller coaster of sadness.

Okay, first about Dio: as a villain he resembles Freeza, but with more character development and I find him more charismatic and much more human in a sense (even his ambitions were very human-esque). While I liked more season 2 than 1, Stardust Crusaders was better! Especially second part! Best season until know! While I feel part 1 was more like an introduction (about some stands) with some good fights, we had many good fights on part 2 and many deaths too. I cried when Avdol and Iggy died, then when Kakyoin died and even with Joseph's fake death! I just love how they worked as a group and that goodby from Polnareff at the end was heartbreaking, just the three of them. Joseph is still my favorite MC from Jojo, but I definitely loved how they dealt with Jotaro this second part, he became much more amicable and likeable too.
Kakyoin... one of the best characters in my opinion and he died showing literally what was the power of the stand:emocat Did you want to make my heart stop beating from sadness, Gry? And when Joseph died I was like "NO, not Joseph!"

Well, somehow that scene with them seeing Dio become dust at the desert was touching and fulfilling. I mean, it brought some nostalgy. Dio become a vampire and Joseph confronted the legacy of Dio's bad deeds on season 2, then everyone died to destry him and you end with two generations of Joestar family watching the final moments of the villain that his antecessors couldn't kill.

About Jotaro's stand, well, platinum and gold, I get... Does it mean that its accuracy was based on something like "seeing the time flowing slowly"?
I'll take a break before watching next season cause I'll finish the other anime and read Amatsuki as promised, but I'll comment abut it when I start watching Jojo again. (give a break to my heart, please, it can't take so many sad animes at once and now uncle's story is bringing tears to my eyes)

@GrySun I don't really agree there, I get how you came to that conclusion, but anyone in their right mindset would've never expected S&M to be a whole new ball park for Pokémon games. Not even B&W2 is that.

My sister and I always had a terrible relationship until we became adults, lmao. We have strong tempers and different MOs and we'd always clash. But in spite of that whenever something happened to the other we'd take each other's fights and protect each other. I made a few enemies in my uni class in her protection, those damn wolves... and during my hardest times I could always count on her support to heal. I'm glad I have a sibling with an age close to mine, we're company for life to each other, she's very special to me. And although I feel I should protect her 'cause she's my baby sister I think she feels the same? So I don't think you should only help someone that is younger to develop and feel safe.
We'll still fight often given the opportunity '-'

I'm not sure if that's a continuation of an earlier conversation, but to hook in here,

My sister is almost 2 years younger than me, and we couldn't give less fucks about each other.
Somewhere there is still that familiar bond, but we don't really want anything to do with each other. I could count the conversations we had last year on both hands, probably. I used to help her out if needed, but when I started to notice that if it was the other way around, she'd not really try to do that, I said go fuck yourself and well.. We're back to how we've always been actually..

I saw her at Christmas and the next time will probably be this year's Christmas.
She might show up at Conan's birthday, who knows. And I might visit her when her second child is born in a few months. But random text messages work best for us.

I see everyone is talking about their sibling so let's talk about mine.
Honestly even though I don't talk about with my brother cuz he went to study abroad I really care about each other, well I think he more caring then me in this kinda stuff. Probably because he the oldest one so he usually the protective one.
We don't fight much now as we don't see each other often only in the summer vacation but a longg time ago we did fight quiet a lot, he used to teas me in the sibling way, he also was a master at making me laugh after I get upset over something he did or other things.

Well, when we were little my big sis and I were always in terrible terms. Always trying to take down the other and fighting over stupid things all the time. :XD
She always kept an eye on me for any trouble despite her bitchy attitude (I was also kind of a punk to her, all must be said) :p
I guess it was like that since we only had a 3 years difference, with the little one later it was another story.

Then we grew up and now we talk regularly even if I dont see her that often anymore. She comes back to Malaga whenever a holiday is up and bingewatch one anime together, its kind of tradition now. :nod

Ah Bia :biblethump I know very well how you feel, wish I was there to give you a hug.



But it is an ending one has to see to finish off their adventure. I‘ll PM later, there‘s a lot to say :XD
But yes it‘s a good idea to watch other things for a while, Part 4 doesn‘t need to be rushed.

Once both are adults it doesn‘t matter anymore who‘s younger, at that point both can support each other. It also works before adulthood if the age difference isn‘t too big(sounds like you and your sister aren‘t far apart).

I didn‘t expect a whole new ball park, but a new game. B2/W2 was a whole new game, while also being a sequel. And for pokemon that definitely was a big thing.

After reading all these posts, my relationship with my sister can only be described as “vanilla”. :cookiehand

My older brother is a different story. Not that we’ve ever been on bad terms, but because he’s ten years older and.. well, he’s an original, to say the least. Don’t want to go into it to much, but it’s hard to not feel estranged with him even when we meet several times a year. He was a terrific older brother though, before he moved away and lived a kinda fucked up life.

Yeah, I also didn't mention my older sister 'cause of something similar. We're 9y apart and we didn't grow up together.
It's weird, I like her a lot, but she's a stranger to me in many senses, sometimes it feels like an imposed relationship, irk.
Still a wonderful person, and maybe it doesn't help that unlike me and my other sis, she's very extroverted and eloquent, I feel like my head will explode whenever we meet '-'"
She's a business woman btw, and she's sooo gorgeous and smart and successful (not to mention my niece is amazing, Lambu' sis age), I super look up to her, lmao, I don't think she knows that.
