Does anybody else hate their half siblings?

I hate my half brother.

by Anonymousreply 23July 17, 2020 8:48 PM

I don't have any, but if I did I probably would.

I hate my regular siblings. I imagine it's the same.

Not exactly, OP. However, I have half-siblings I met as adults, and I have zero connection with them. I don't like being with them, I can't relate to them, and I really can't say I love them. (I have a brother I was raised with, and I love him tremendously.)

I feel guilty about having no connection, however, like there is something wrong with me.

I have three, two I can tolerate, one I actively dislike. They are all losers.

I can’t imagine growing up in a house with step siblings. How weird. I get everyone should be happy - but once you have kids, you are screwing them over by just merging with another family who are basically complete strangers.

Tiffany is OK. The other three are deplorable.

I hated my full brother, he made my life a living hell when I was a kid. For many years I thought he might actually kill me, but he killed himself instead, unfortunately he waited until I was an adult to kill himself.

My father has a bunch of half-siblings. All they want to do is mooch money from him.

OP, are you Barron Trump?

While growing up, my half siblings regularly made homophobic comments towards me and gays in general. Then they wonder why I have no relationship with them as an adult, and say I'm being weird and anti social.

I don't trust nor love them at all.

I have several from both parents, but only dislike the nutjob in Guam who is an ultrareligious cop. The rest of us get along, although one brother has boycotted my sister and I for not kissing our sociopathic bio mom's ass.

Nothing wrong with you, R3. You never formed bonds with them growing up and many people don't even get along with family members they've known since day 1 of their lives.

Step siblings are not half siblings. They are not related by blood.

You choose to have people in your live - if they are toxic, let them go!

I barely know my half-sibling (sister). She is old enough to be my mother. From my dad's first marriage. No love lost there between her mom and my dad.

My grandfather had five boys with my grandmother, one of whom is my father.

He then knocked up his sixteen year old secretary. He somehow was able to whisk her away to Atlanta to have the baby in secret. She gave birth to my half-uncle who was then left in an orphanage. No one has any clue what happened to him and several people in the family don’t know about it or just do not even mention in. We’re a pretty rich, WASPish family and there are lots of “secrets.”

Their affair continued after she returned to the small Southern town they all lived in and my grandfather eventually left my grandmother, married the secretary and they had two girls, and lived less than a mile from his old family in the biggest house in town. My father and my uncles don’t really have relationships with their half-sisters but I’m quite fond of them and love hanging out with them. One is only a year older than me and the other one is maybe 3-4 years older. They’ve always felt more like fun older sisters to me rather than aunts.

I have no clue if they even know they have a full brother somewhere. I only found out about him ten years ago.

I’ve slept with so many guys at this point, I often have wondered if maybe one of them was my half-uncle.

My cousin's father (my aunt's husband--not blood related to me), had multiple children with other women when married to my aunt. My cousin will not acknowledge any of the half-siblings born while her parents were married. Her father remarried after her mother died (a woman 3 years younger than my cousin) and had a son. My cousin will only refer to him as, "my father's son," not her half-brother or brother. She doesn't have a relationship with him, but just tolerated dealing with him when their father was sick and ultimately died.

I have a half-sibling from an affair my father had early on in my parent's marriage. He's the only sibling who looks like me. My full siblings have my mother's coloring.

I don't hate him, I don't like him, I don't feel much of anything. He took a share of my father's estate which pissed off two of my full siblings. It didn't actually matter and I don't think it was about the money, there was plenty to go around. Their dislike of him is irrational but I doubt it will ever go away.

My son has two half siblings, each atleast ten years older than him. He wouldn't even recognize them on the street. Blood doesn't not a family make.

I’m a half-sibling.

Half siblings? Hell, I hate my full siblings.

Another who has grown to hate 2 of his 3 full siblings. I was just telling my sister yesterday that she is my only ally. My brothers are selfish, misogynistic pricks and have been for a long time. The realization slapped me in the face last summer following my father's death.

by Anonymousreply 22July 17, 2020 7:35 PM

I'm my own half-sibling.
