My brother makes me sick. He likes to annoy me when i haven't done anything to him. Especially when i'm in a good mood. He makes up absurd stuff about me to his friends, (?!?!?!) and when his friends complemented me that I was pretty, he went like "NO!!" to them. Meanwhile, when i've forgotten the stuff he's done, i try to be nice to him, stand up for him when my dad wrongly scolded him, try to connect with him... What the hell is wrong with him??!?!?! Now thinking about it, he really makes me sick to my stomach. i'm 19, he's 14.
Adolescence? Seriously. He takes up the entire living room freedom space because he parks himself in front of the computer every day and every movement I make, he judges it by slamming on his mouse, coughing, singing in a way that really is meant to annoy me. I tried to work around it, thinking I might have done something wrong, but in the end, it just reduces me to this helpless thing.. And he likes to pat my head!! ..wtf?!?!? i'm really sick of it.

Sounds like it could be a few different things. First off, he is your brother...and to a certain extent that's just how little brothers are sometimes. However, he should be respectful of you and your personal place. He is only 14 and some boys at that age just haven't matured enough yet. To me it sounds like maybe he wants your attention on a different level. Do the two of you ever just hang out together? Maybe take him to the movies once in while or out for pizza. My brother and I always got along better when my parents weren't around because there's no need to "compete" for their attention. It also sounds like he may be a little spoiled by your parents, and let's face it...you can't control that issue.
I would suggest just having a mature conversation with him and give him the chance to be mature in return. Tell him that you'd really like to be able to spend time with him without him aggravating you all the time. And, if he is being disrespectful to you, you should let your parent(s) know how it's making you feel as well. Bottom line is, he's your brother and deep down you love him so try to work it out. I'm hoping that this is a fairly new thing and is due to his age, in time he'll grow up. Good luck and I hope this helps!

This is going ot be hard, but it will help you. It won't be a quick fix, but it is a fix. Ignore him. Pretty much that is the best solution.
I have 2 brothers. I am the oldest and the middle one, in high school, told every one I had lice. I was called into the nurses office so the nurse can check me. I have never had lice in my life. When the nurse called my mom, she flipped her lid. We both went home that day. My mom yelled at him and told him that was the meanest thing he had ever done to me. She also yelled at the nurse and said if I had it wouldn't my brother have it too?! Couldn't she recognize a sibling fight? HAHA Now my brother and I get along pretty good.
Anyway, ignore your brother. For some reason, he is jealous of you. If you ignore his minor temper tantrums, he is going to get worse, trying to get your attention. If you keep ignoring him, eventually he will stop. And hopefully when you both are older, you can develope a relationship. Blessings!

kick his butt he's ur brother not a stranger. He knows how to push ur bottons and u let him get away with it. The next time he does something give him a warning to stop and if he doesnt ur going to teach him a lesson. Dont let him get away with it or it will never stop I promise u he will do it into adulthood too.
