Who are you closest with?
I only have one brother so I'm close to him! DH has two brothers and is closer with his older brother because they have a lot of shared interests!

I have 3 older sisters and I'm really close with all of them. I'd say I'm closest with the second to oldest because we're most similar (we make each other laugh and share the most but are less dramatic than my other two sisters). Even though I'm close with all of them, they aren't all close with each other anymore.

I have a sister who is 8 years younger and a brother who is 10 1/2 years younger. Most definitely my sister and I are much closer. Just more shared interests and I've basically toted her around as my mini-me all her life! lol

I only have one sibling, but DH has 3 (2 brothers, 1 sister) and he's closest with his youngest brother. They're the most similar, and they work together now too.

i'm the youngest with two older brothers -- one is 5 years older, one is 8 years older. we're relatively close considering the age difference and that we're different genders. i used to be really close with my middle brother, but after he got married that changed.

I have 3 brothers - one is my twin, one is two years younger, and one is 7 years younger. I am closest with the one that is 2 years younger and second closest to the one that is 7 years younger. Me and my twin brother really aren't close at all.

I have 3 younger sisters and I'm close with all of them. I would say that the 2nd one is probably the one I'm the most closest with just because we went to school together. While we were out of town, the other two were bonding. But, we are all very close, closer than most usually are.

I have a brother (4 years younger) and a sister (12 years younger). I'd say I'm close to my sister. I've always been like another mom to her and we're buddies.

I am much younger than my 2 brothers. They are 7 and 9 years older. I am closer to the younger of the two, but not because of age. My oldest brother went to college out of state when I was 8 and never moved back. Even now, he lives far away. I never got to know him as well purely out of proximity. My middle brother lived at home until I was 14-15, so we had MUCH more bonding time.
My oldest brother and I are getting closer now that we are both adults with families. We are better about communicating.

I have an older brother and sister. I'm close to both. I'm closer in age to my sister, and we're both girls so we're probably closest. But she lives far away and my brother lives here so I see him a lot more.

I have 3 younger sisters, and like JenniMac, we are all very close! The 2nd youngest and I are best, best friends though - we went to university together, were roomies for a while, and now work together. I feel very fortunate to have 3 built in best-friends, though... if we have a daughter I definitely want her to have a sister. I can't imagine going through life without one! (or three

I have 3 younger sisters and a younger brother. I have been close with all of them, but currently am closer to my oldest younger sister and my brother. It is mainly because we are a lot closer in age and all out of my parent's house- they are in graduate school and finishing college, while my youngest two sisters are still in high school. I am hoping it is just the age, but I have found recently that my youngest two sisters do not want to put any effort into having a relationship anymore (i.e. not returning phone calls or reaching out and not coming to my baby shower)... it makes me kind of sad, but I am hopeful that it will get better once they get to college.

I have 2 brothers and 2 sisters. It's a unique situation though, because both of my sisters are adopted and quite a bit younger (one is about to be 14 and the other will be 9 soon), whereas I'm the oldest child and in my 20s.
I have the best conversations with my oldest brother, but a lot of that may have to do with us being the only two adults thus far. I love all of my siblings and actually spend the most time with my youngest sister, but our relationships are so drastically different from the norm! I feel like her aunt most of the time, tbh.
I think as they get older we'll have more opportunity to be "closer" in the sense that I won't feel like the "aunt figure" so much, but who knows. We'll still be quite far apart developmentally.

I am one of 5 and am closest with my sister right below me. She is in college right now. I would say she is my best friend!

@Rainbow Sprinkles: We had such similar answers, but yours was much more concise! haha. My brother is also in college and we have the best convos/very similar personalities.
