How to deal with older sibling jealousy?
I have a brother james, 2 years older than me. And tonight just blew it for me. And it's not just tonight.
So basically, he's better than me at so much things. We both do band, he always is known as the most talented musician. He get's straight a's. I get a few b's and a c. And I try harder, i study my but off, but he is naturually smarter and doesn't have to try. It's not fair.
He has a laptop, an iphone, and a tv in his room. I just have a phone. My parents say "oh well he's older." so what?
This week, i really wanted to go to the carnival, that is in town for only 5 days. I was busy all 4 days, and i really wanted to go today, but my parents said no because today they wanted to "just take it easy". But james got to go because a friend invited him. And now I'm home babysitting our little brother while he's at the carnival I really wanted to go to.
Has anyone else dealt with this? It annoys me and my parents don't even care.
Stop living I'm his shadow. Find your own strengths. Don't worry about him and do your own thing, something that he will never beat you in. I feel that way with my older sister sometimes but if me and her went head to head in gymnastic I would wipe the floor with her but. And I know there must be a least one thing you got that he can't have.
And ps. While your worrying about him and his lie, he's still having a great time and your wasting time.
- Will T-Mobile have older versions of the iPhone? I have recently found out that T-Mobile has finally came to a deal to get the iPhone and I'm very excited because T-Mobile is cheap and affordable and actually has unlimited internet… Well the only problem with me is I do not want to really spend 200+ on the new iPhone but will T-Mobile have the iPhone 4s or the 4 because I still like those phones… And will they offer the same things that att and verizon offer for like 50 bucks or even free?
- When i buy new iPhone what happens to older one? I have a iphone which is under contract of At&t and 2 years are still remaining. If i get new iPhone 4s and when i transfer my old number to new iPhone will the contract terminate and transfer to new phone? How can i terminate the contract from old iphone with less trouble as possible and avoiding the ETF? I want to gift my old iPhone to someone
- What should I do about my jealousy? All my friends have iPhones I'm so jealous! And I made a presentation for my parents and they were super impressed but they won't even talk to me about it! And they don't even want me to get an IPhone! How can I peruse them to help me get one!
- Unfair! Sibling gets everything So, my brother (younger than me) sleeps til 12 o clock. Is in the sofa all day, and doesn't like the food my mum cooks. I wake up soon, even in holidays, i do loads of sports and get good grades. I really needed a macbook for my school year. He got an Iphone 4S and a Macbook PRO I got an Itouch and i have a Dell computer. There's probably an explanation to that, so does someone (maybe a parent of sumthing) that can tell me WHY?
