10 Reasons Why Your Big Sister Is The Most Important Person In Your Life

There’s nothing quite like having a big sister. An ally in life, who you have shared all your experiences with, a big sister can be your best friend, your most honest critic, your second mom and a personal hero.
Who else is going to help you sneak in when you miss curfew or give you their brutally honest opinion on your new haircut?

She Is Your Best and Most Loyal Friend

Who can you trust more than your sister? She’s known you your whole life and been with you on every step of your journey so far. Even the best of friends have a hard time competing with their loyalty and you know that whatever happens, they have your best interests at heart. Unlike other friends, the family usually stick around, so there’s no chance of this friendship drifting apart.

You Share the Same Closet

Have you ever noticed that her clothes always seem to look somewhat better on you? Big sister equals big closet, and I for one am not ashamed to admit to borrowing a T shirt or two from my big sister’s closet when we shared a room back in the day.

She Knows How to Deal with Your Parents.

Whatever the problem is, the big sister is the best you have to save you from any problem. You can navigate the problem smoothly and have you saved from any trouble. She is your experienced wingman. You can discuss family with her. She is the best person to share everything on earth, cause she understands you.

Anything Goes

In your relationship with your sister, there are no boundaries. That means that you can feel the freedom which only comes with siblings.
There are no weird moments between you. You can walk around in your underwear and feel cool about it. Or moreover, one might sit on the toilet while you are talking. You are sisters, for you it’s normal.

She Is the Go-To Person for Cool Movies, Music and Fashion Trends

Growing up, it’s a constant battle to try and unearth the coolest band, movie, and fashion and having an older sister is a huge advantage. Not only will she likely get to the hottest new trends before you, she understands how important it is for you to try and appear with it, so is usually willing to help you out.
This is where big sisters come into their own, as they’re so much better at this type of stuff than moms. Your big sister will sort out the terrible haircut your mom got you, warn you to ditch that awful outfit you picked out for the big party and give you unlimited access to her music collection.
If you had a big sister, chances are she was the one to take you to your first concert or helped you pick out make-up when you had no idea what you were doing.

She Will Not Sugar-coat the Truth

Friends tend to withhold their real opinion about you or something about you simply to avoid confrontation. Big sisters? – not so much! They will slap the truth right in your face. We all need a reality check every once in a while and your big sister will do just that.

She’s Got Your Back

When it comes to sticking up for you, none of your friends can compete with a big sister. She will be in your corner from day one and you can bet if anyone tries to mess with her little sister, she will sort it out. This kind of protection comes in handy when it comes to trouble with bullies or even arguments with friends.

She Knows What You are Made Of and Gives The Best Advice

No matter the self-doubts, your lack of faith in yourself, the big sister will reassure you and offers you strength to follow things through. She knows what your best strengths are and will be there to support you. She is your biggest fan!
Got a problem? Chances are you will speak to your sister about it first. Like an unpaid therapist, your big sister is an expert in dishing out advice and just listening to your problems, without judgment. She’s the person who knows you best and knows the most about the different relationships in your life. So whether you need to vent about your friends, family or work, a chat with her usually makes you feel a whole lot better.
