7 Reasons Why I Hate My Little Brother

If you have a little brother, you can probably relate.

Oh, brothers. Everyone has their own feelings about their younger brothers, whether it be in a good way or in a bad way. For me, my opinion on my brother has always stayed the same even till today. There was a point in time when I was in complete awe of my new baby brother, and guess what? I still am.


1. He's way too caring

I don't understand how this is even possible. I mean, I've heard of brothers who don't care for their family at all. Rather, they live life selfishly. My brother, on the other hand, cares way too much for his family. He always makes sure that we're okay. He knows that as another man in the family, he needs to make sure that everyone around him is doing okay before he worries about himself.

2. He shows his love in the cutest ways

Not only does this boy show his love by being caring, but he does little things that really make me wonder how I got so lucky to have such an amazing little brother. For example, one time I really wasn't feeling my best. I had been in my room crying all day, and I had no energy or motivation to do anything. My brother saw how I was feeling and immediately cheered me up by bringing me my favorite food and asking if I needed anything. Just his small act of love and kindness was enough to bring a smile on my face.

3. He is the comedian of the house

Although I like to think I'm the funniest person I've ever met, I have to admit that my brother is pretty funny. He'll crack jokes during dinner that will have us laughing for days. He knows how to get a smile on everyone's faces. When he notices that we look a little dull or stressed from school or work, he'll say something so funny that our stress is gone for good.

4. He's smarter than me

I don't like to admit this either but unfortunately, it's the truth. It amazes me that he is so smart, whether it be academically or socially. I'm not sure if I should be more mad at him or at my parents for passing the smart genes to him instead of me. Well, since he is my brother, I am more than happy to proudly say that my brother is smarter than me. I can't wait to see what he'll grow up to be when he's older.

5. He notices every single detail

Literally. It could be as simple as someone saying something minor during an extended conversation or even something someone told him 10 months ago. It's crazy how strong his memory is now. I'm not sure if I should look at his memory as an advantage or a disadvantage but he really does pay attention to every single detail. Whether it be my favorite restaurants, favorite YouTubers or even my favorite pair of socks, he's got it noted.

6. He's the most spoiled

Unfortunately. Before he was born, I was treated like a princess by my parents. I got everything I asked for and I absolutely love it. Then came my brother. The day he was born was the day I lost my power as royalty of the house. My parents soon started to treat him like a king. They got him everything that would make him happy. Well, in hindsight, I guess he deserves it because of everything he does for us. But mom and dad, don't forget I'm still the princess of the house.

7. He sees the world differently than I do

Every day, I gain more and more insight into the world that my brother sees. His care and love for his family are way beyond anything I've ever seen in a person so young. As a college student, I'm always stressing about assignments and exams. However, my brother knows that we can't let stress take over our lives. In fact, his presence alone is enough for me to realize that life is so short and to see the world in his eyes.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
