The sibling relationships on Wattpad bother me...either the siblings hate each other or the love each other, there is not in between.

In other words, there is no "usual" sibling relationship.

As someone with a little brother, I can tell you that our relationship goes through phases.

We were best friends as little kids, then he got to his annoying preteen self and that stretched well into his teens, meaning we didn't get along at all. Now we're better again, but we still have our off days.

It's normal!

To any only children out there; sibling relationships are weird. Sibling rivalry is weird and if you don't have a sibling you will sadly never truly understand it.

My mom is an only child and the sibling rivalry between my brother and me drives her insane.

She doesn't understand why we argue about who sits on what spot at the dining table or the way we literally mock each other, but it's all in good fun. It also baffles her that we can go from having a good laugh together, to world war 3 in a second (or vice versa).

It would honestly be amazing to see more real sibling relationships.

Or real in my opinion.

Maybe there are siblings that literally don't talk to each other or always get along. I don't know.

Also, sometimes I can tell it's an only child writing the story, 'cause little to no siblings call each other 'brother', 'bro', 'sis' or 'sister'. Even calling them by their names feel like a stretch.
