Wait 20 years and it will be fine. Until then, as you grow up - yeah, he'll be a jerk sometimes. I got news for you - you will be, too. But in the long run, when you are adults, you'll be good friends.

Tell your brother how his behavior is making you feel. Tell him that you miss being close. Ask him if the reason he is acting like this is because he wants to look cool in front of his new friend. If that is the reason, then explain to him that "friends" come and go, but a sister is forever! When his friend is long gone you will still be here.

first of all, who picks the fight. If you were mature enough you would not even get into the fight.
have you ever considered that you are jealous of his new friend and maybe causing the fight?
You older brother needs friends besides his little sister. sooner or later you will find friends of your own who you will want to hang out with, it just so happens that he found a friend first.
When you find a friend to spend time with, your relationship with your brother should get better.

I have been in your situation. The best thing to do is talk to your brother about it. With my brother, I simply said that I missed seeing him all the time and I felt like I never talked to him. It wasnt a week later and he was calling me on a more regular basis and I was getting to see a lot more of him. Good luck.

You don't give any details so don't know if one of you can drive. If so, once in a while, when he is doing nothing, say why don't we run out and get some ice cream.
You have to accept that he wants to be with friends, but you know, he will be there for you when it really counts.

Give him a wide berth until he stops behaving so immature. Friends are nice to have, but family is forever. He'll come back to you and be that sweet brother you know and love. I speak from experience.

Maybe try talking to him a little bit. I think when this happens the more you try and confront him, the more he will back off. So I would try and talk to him about it once...and that's it. It is probably just a phase and he will come around. In the long run...friends can come and go..but you're his sibling...you're not going any where :)

same here...I started hating my bro for that...he'll come to u when the bad times come...they always do when they need something from you! how da hell do you teach them to respect u? they only have one sister and they should care for her! (well in my case it's only me and ma 2 bros) they are both the same...we fight nearly everyday...and they are much older than me...but obviously not mature enough to stop arguing about stupid things! when will boys grow up anyways?! just leave ur bro...trust me he'll come to u when he needs something and then u can tell him how rude he's been and that it's not right! brothers are such bitchez..lol...

I'm sorry Abby, that's kind of how my sister and I are. We use to be so close but now she acts like she hates my guts. Weird. Must just be hormones, he'll get over it.
