An Open Letter To My Brother Who's Also My Best Friend
Susie Walker

To my older brother,

You are the one I miss the most and there isn’t a day that goes by without having you on my mind. From growing up inseparable to now being 457 miles away from each other. Some days are harder than others knowing that you aren’t just right across the hall. We have always been those weird siblings who have never fought with each other, which I can really thank you for. You have always just wanted the best for me.

You are the person I am most thankful for. You have a way of just making everyone happy and bringing so much positivity into one room. Whenever I am around you, I can’t help but have a smile on my face. You are the person that I can always turn to. You are the one that I can trust with all of my secrets. You have impacted me more than you can ever imagine. Through the good, the bad, and the ugly you are the one who is always there.

I don’t know anyone who has a kinder heart than you do. Knowing that you would drop anything whenever I need you is such a big blessing. I feel so lucky to call you my brother.

You have taught me so much in life. Whether it is school related, any advice you have given me, or just even little things you say while we are talking, I have learned so many different things. I have always considered you the “golden” child and I have always looked up to you.

You are incredibly smart, successful in anything you do, and just all around a good person. I strive to be just like you. You carry yourself with confidence and I have always been jealous of that and I am always wishing that I could be like you. You have saved me on my hardest days, been a shoulder for me to cry on, and you have been standing there with your arms wide open.

You are also the one who I have shared my best laughs and memories with. You protect if I am ever in any danger and you would never let anything bad happen to me.

Thank you for everything you have done for me. You have shaped me into the person that I am today. Thank you for always sharing everything with me, including your friends. I feel like I am the younger sister of about ten older brothers. You all make me feel like the most important person in the world. Thank you for always putting me first.

You will always be the number one person in my life. I know you will always have my back. You are the absolute best and I don’t know how I got so lucky to be able to call you my brother.

You are more than just a brother to me.

You are a role model

You are a hero

You are a teacher

But most importantly, you are my best friend

Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
