I wish I could help you. I have an old sister... she's 8 years older than me, though. Not just 2 like you. And we fight all the time. I'm 18, almost 19, and she's 26, almost 27. We just recently got into 2 huge arguments over the same stuff we always fight over.
I'm the spoiled brat that gets everything and she's the daughter that was slighted and has never been treated the same as me. That's how she sees it.
I really do wish I had some magical advice to help you. I'm trying to learn how to control my anger and grow more patience because heaven above knows I have NO patience and a terrible anger problem. Maybe you can try that. I know it sounds cooky but there are some really good books that can help you. That's what I did. I just went to a Barnes & Noble and looked at some books and found one that was right for me, and it really is making sense. I hate self-help books, but if it can help anyone control their anger and grow patience, then what the hell... right?
Good luck, hon. I really wish I could say something better than that.

Right now, with 3 teenagers in the house... yeah, there's a lot of squabbling and fighting. You're headed to college soon -- and like magic, you'll stop seeing those brothers as people to fight with, and they'll be wowed by your college experiences. Give it a few years and you'll all start to get along better, once you're not piled on top of one another all the time.

Well since you're 18 I'd recommend getting the hell out of the house. You can legally be on your own now and you should be independent or at least in college. Sometimes distance is the best cure. Now that My brother is in college and my younger one is in a different school we get along great

just have some patience and keep silent to whatever provocative they say. this will drive them mad and stop fighting with you.. just dont respond in any way when they are trying to drag u into some tiff
Psst.. you will really enjoy watching them go nuts by ur silence

You hate them now but you will love them when you get older and don't get to see them as often. My brother hated me when he was young. I was 9 years younger than him, so I know that I annoyed him, but now he lives 2000 miles away and misses me.

welll, personally, i think it would be abnormal NOT to fight. lol. why don't you just try talking to them and telling them how you feel. try and say stuff like, you must be tired of it too, we're growing up and we need to stop acting like kids. or you could try bribing them... lol
good luck x

I fight back, but don't worry it will stop when you get married and move out of the house.
