I don’t love my brother. We grew up together and we are just 13 months apart in our births but I still do not love my ‘brother’. Also, I feel sure that he does not love me either and I am actually completely ok with that. My bio-brother has never been warm or affectionate toward me in my memory. After a lot of time and self care, I have come to a place where I can accept that my bio-brother simply does not have the emotion skills to be a kind and loving older brother. He was never taught to be loving and caring of a younger sibling. Both of my bio-parents are the first born in their families of origin. My bio-bro is also first born. I suspect that they can not relate to the second born in the family.
