Out of all the friends you make in your entire life, the kind of friendship you have with your siblings is the purest, honest and long lasting. It’s fun to have someone of your age around you all the time so you can match up your level of craziness with someone.
What makes sibling bonds so strong? Well, your sibling has been there while you were going to all these different phases of life, seen your terrible tantrums, the awkward puberty phase, worst haircuts, your heartbreak phase and whatnot. They didn’t disown you when you were, umm, let’s just say not at your best, right? So, know that they are here to stay and that’s what makes siblings your first best friend. Most of us do not realise how lucky we are to have ‘siblings’ in life, but If you know that you can run to your sibling in stormy weather, and they always manage to cheer you up, you have everything. Festivals like Raksha Bandhan help us celebrate unconditional love for our brother and sister. Apart from looking for a perfect rakhi gift to celebrate the festivals, here are some common things that happen when your siblings are your best friend.
Weird shenanigans
You know you just know it when your siblings have your back. It is tried and tested with time. If they have covered for you when you came late or beat a bully in school even when you were at fault. So, with time, siblings who are best friends develop weird shenanigans. Its comes so naturally and its becomes your thing. As kids it can start with a spitting competition, who spits goes the farthest, as adults I can be something like who can go on without bathing for the maximum number of days. I know siblings make you do crazy things.
Talk about anything
When you have a best friend under one roof in the form of a sibling, you get the advantage to unload your heart whenever and wherever you want. You two can talk about literally anything, no shame, no fear of judgment. From a deep conversation about relationships to embarrassing stuff that you did in public, you can discuss anything and nothing can shock them. You are yourself when you are with them.
Can gossip about family and relatives
With siblings who are your best friends, it’s easy to gossip about your own family. They live in the same family and know the traits of every single person. So, you can easily explain why you hate a certain relative, and chances are they hate the person. There is no worry about this gossip being spread so, you can burst out with any filters even if it’s your parents who are giving you a tough time as it is a bit hard to bitch about parents with other friends.
These are some common things that you can relate to if your sibling is your best friend. For such a bond, you definitely need to pick the best rakhi gift.
