Who else is going to cover for you when you came in late?
And that’s not all!
Your older sister is a lot of things: your closest friend, your partner in crime, someone you can always confide in, your other mom, and so much more.
Here’s a list of 10 things that explain why people who have an older sister are blessed.
1. She will be there for you. Always.
True friends remain in our life forever while other people come and go. When it comes to your big sister, that is very true. She will remain at your side no matter what occurs, whether it be good or terrible.
2. She is a person who would always forgive you.
Your sister will always find a way to forgive you, regardless of how badly you’ve wronged her. Depending on where you are in life, your friends may change. With your big sister, though, this is not the case. She will always support you and be your buddy.
3. She knows you extremely well
Sometimes our older sisters are more familiar with us than we are. She is aware of your tastes in cuisine, your dislike of the color blue, and your aversion to wearing short skirts because you don’t want people to see the scar on your knee. She is also aware of your motivations for acting a specific way and the things that bring you joy or sadness.
4. You can tell her all your secrets
You informed her initially that you had your first kiss. She is the one who supported you when you had your first breakup. She will never betray your confidence and will offer you an honest assessment of your condition, so you can always confide in her.
5. She will give you the best advice
She is the one who can give you the finest guidance since she knows you so well—possibly even better than your parents. She will advise you on the proper course of action without passing judgment or assigning blame.
6. You don’t need to pretend that you are someone else
One of the few people in your life who will always accept you for who you are is your sister. She is someone who won’t point the finger at you for little errors or pass judgment on you when you don’t make the best decision. She could give you criticism, but it would just be to help you realize what’s right. She will then give you a hug, kiss, and a “it’s all right” statement.
7. She helps you get along with your parents
Nothing is more priceless than knowing your wise big sister is on your side and will assist you in reconciling with your parents if you and they have been at odds. She will have been in your shoes before, so she will know how to act and what to say, whether you are violating your curfew or it’s your partner they don’t like. The nicest part is that, if you really mess up, she could act as a mediator and attempt to diffuse the issue.
8. She makes your life so much more interesting
It’s a great benefit to have an elder sister. She makes your life so much more exciting in addition to the fact that she loves you without conditions. She is the one who will introduce you to the newest fashion trends, take you to a performance of your favorite band, or purchase makeup for you for the first time.
9. She is the best aunt
Big sisters typically make the finest aunts to their siblings’ offspring. That is most likely because they are already moms and are familiar with raising children. However, they are far more tolerant of and want to spoil their sister’s kids as much as possible.
10. She is your other mum
Anyone who has had the good fortune to have a big sister can attest to the fact that she will stand up for you, love you, look out for you, accept you just as much as a mother, and be there anytime you need her.
Therefore, if you have a big sister, never forget to express your love and gratitude to her.
