2 half sisters, one real sister

Question

My mom had two girls one born in 1981 and the other 1983 with this one man who she left from cheating on her. She married my dad and then had me and my sister both born in early ninties. Now that me and my real sister are teens and they are late twenties and one is married we are not very close. They never call for me and my sister, but only my mom. Yeah they are nice to me and hang out with me, but they act like their angels. SHould I consider them my real sisters? Me and my real sister are so close and she will always be the best to me, never my other half sisters.

Answer 1

I think that you should just concider them you sisters and leave it at that. If you feel that bad about the little amount of time that they spend with you..... tell them that you want to be apart of there life and you want to be involved with them. See if maybe they will plan sometime to spend with you if you just ask. Explain to them that there are thing s that you can learn from a big sister that your mom just can't teach you and ask them to be involve, chance are they don't even know you feel this way.

Answer 2

I don't think it's necessary to consider them your "real" sisters when they are simply your half-sisters.  That's not to say you should treat them badly, it's just that if you aren't close to them, then I wouldn't bother to refer to them as my sisters, but rather, my half-sisters.

Answer 3

The terms half and step I think should go away.. They are your sisters.  You might understand them more when you are older and right now its great that you and your younger sister have a great bond.  Eventually might feel different about the other 2.  I think it is more of the age difference that is affecting the way you feel and your relationship with them.

Answer 5

They are your Mom's daughter's exactly the same as you & your biological sister are. Your mom sees no difference between the four of you, you are all her children, so why do you seem to have a problem with it ?

In my opinion, you only ever have one mother & she gave birth to 4 daughters. try referring to your older siblings as your older sisters, instead of branding them with the "half " label, then you might have a better relationship with them if you see them as equals.

Good Luck . X :-)

Answer 6

They are your real sisters...your real Half-sisters. Whether you like them or not doesn't change what they are. If you are closer to your whole sister, then that's just a fact of life. Don't stress it. You can't change who they are simply because you favor one over the other two. Be glad that you have a sibling you are close to, and enjoy the others as who they are.

Also--your relationship with the older two may change when you get older, and have more in common with them.
