I've seen two friends calling themselves My Blood , when one was arrested, the other absconded. It was the brother of the arrested one that came from another state to bail him.

For me, I don't think I can love any woman more than I love my mother. I keep telling anyone who cares to listen.


And especially a Nigerian girl. By now, I'm sure everyone on this platform knows that already.

sadly, instead of being grateful that you have a brotha that pays for EVERYTHING ELSE in your life, you are here looking down on him being upset because "you" are slacking off. you better be grateful yeah, and stp looking down on small stuff. SORT YOUR LIFE OUT!
Seems you like and enjoy seeing people in pain, you are kinda odd with what you support most times...

This is hard to judge, there is a stage a person will get to and the only means of survival is to care about you and you alone, hoping that himself/herself and the other person gets his/her breakthrough. The OP really tried by filling the gas and has no option, guess it's also tough for the elder Bro and he had to focus on himself.

Good day all, please judge this matter and see if what my brother is doing to me is fine or not. I also need your advice.

I live with my senior brother. We are all managing life because we are struggling. He sell for person in the market while I am an apprentice. Last year November, I started learning fashion design and I am barely 3 months. So we agreed I will be the one refilling cooking gas always and buy other little things like salt, pepper, soap and so on while he'll buy most of food items.

Since I cannot sew well yet, money does not flow my way so common but there is how my boss will send me to go deliver work to someone and the person will dash me N1000 or N2000 sometimes for my effort. Another way I make money is by amendment of clothes when i have. That is how I make little little money for survival. I have been refilling the gas as far as money is in my hand but this January, things are very tough that I hardly see N100 especially the last two weeks.

Because I don't have money to refill gas, my brother is now eating from outside or sometimes borrow a neighbour gas to cook noodles and he will eat alone without minding if I have eat or not like what happened yesterday which i was very hungry, saying when I have money to refill gas, we will start cooking in the house again and I will eat. I have try to tell him I don't have money these days but he is saying I'm hiding my money and be looking at his face. This is coming from a blood brother who is my senior.

Note: I am 23, SSCE holder. I decided to learn the trade after my attempts to go to university failed financially and otherwise.

Please is this alright because am beginning to keep malice with him.

Bear with him. It's not that rosy for him too, otherwise he won't watch you suffer. Just pray God bless you both

Exactly

I filled 3kg earlier this year. Was arranging one stubborn soup like that, gas finished midway and my favourite female neighbor travelled. Man was low on funds, had to call the gasman to help top 3kg.

Still on the 3kg now cheesy


Were you going to borrow her cylinder or what ?

You've never seen a brother come through for a brother when friends disembarked?
You didn't see when Naira Marley mom was the only woman standing for him when he was in prison?

Blood will always be thicker than water.

Funny, I understand the blood is thicker than water is actually

"the blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the womb" meaning bonds made by choice are more important than familial bonds

Some brothers are wicked, I wish my younger ones will love me the way I so much care for them, last year from September to December, I single handedly built house for my young brother to live with his new wife since my both parents are late, I bought from matress, plasma, new generator and many gadget just to make him feel comfortable.... That 3m I spent would have nearly complete my own house in Township but because of love I don't want them to suffer like I did during my time of apprenticeship.
My brother don't ever hate ur brother, instead work harder as if though u don't have any brother. That was the spirit that I used to escape poverty, I don't believe that I have helper, except God

I'm not in conflict with my siblings.

I've just seen a lot of times that blood is not thicker than water.

I've seen siblings kill each other over inheritance.

I've seen a rich sibling abandon his family because the became rich.

I've seen a son and daughter call their mother a witch.

I've seen a mother and father hate thier children.

So is blood thicker than water in these instances?

You lack reasoning and emotional intelligence....
You listing things out as if majority of family train their children without love.

I thank God for my family and those families that they were trained in love and never to have entitlement to someone else thing.

No matter the misunderstanding I have with family, I resolve it because that's what a wise person does... And I use the bible as standard for my life.

well said
InTheCloudySky:
If he's not housing her, is she supposed to be living on the streets when she can stay with him? And how is he feeding her when he told her when she has money to refill gas, they will start cooking in the house again and she will eat? How do you say something so cruel to your own sister?

I don't see any sense of entitlement with the OP, else I would've called it out. She's trying. The brother is just being unnecessarily stingy and mean towards her. If I were him and in their position, I would share my last cup of water or whatever I'm eating with her because that's what a loving older sibling should do. It's not as if she's hasn't been trying herself.

@Picktrust,

Ok. A million thanks.

05800 41007, GTBank

I have asked someone to send you 5k. Pls buy gas with it and manage it. I HATE to hear people suffer issues with feeding. It should be something basic. And avoid grudging your brother o. People have their reasons for doing whatever it is they do. We do not have to agree with their reasons. Focus on your hustle, work hard. Your time will come.

Most issues that erupt among siblings in the family is based on the upbringing, my views on siblings love changed the day i met a guy whose family communicate twice a day i mean from the first born to the last one they communicate morning and night and each time they call its always end with i love you
This guy is 32 years old and they still do all that tell me why they would ever have a reason to hate each other, Bible was never wrong when its says charity (Love)begin at home

Something must have made your brother suspect you're hoarding your money. Maybe he sees betslip in your pocket or around the house.

He's your brother, no need to start keeping malice with him. Next time he starts eating noodles, get a spoon and join him.

Thank you very much.
I've told people the same thing here on nairaland, is not a story I've seen it happen.
Ans this people are biological brothers and sisters, with same father and same mother.

But many has been blinded by the falsehood that only polygamy that beget such hatred among siblings. But I've seen polygamous family who live in peace love and harmony.

Sometimes I wonder the kind of relationship with keep with our blood. Same issue I discussed with my kid brother this morning. Am very close and friendly with my brothers which makes me so happy. Infact, the truth is I can die for any of my siblings (Am not making mouth). But some people will be treating their own blood like a stranger.
My brother spoke to his friend about his challenges at the moment and boom, his friend wired 100k to him just this morning. This is someone my brother just met in school ooooo.
Please, no matter what, u blood is ur blood. I just hate to see or hear siblings not in good terms.
Op, I pray God brings back the love between u both
