There's really no bond quite like the one you have with your siblings. Whether it be a brother or a sister, there's always a protective instinct associated with them. When the dating age hits, it gets a lot worse. You want to protect them from getting hurt but you also want them to be happy. After seeing my fair share of movies and television, I've definitely seen how love can go very wrong, or completely right. When it comes to my sister, I'm like a grizzly bear protecting her cubs. She is a wonderful person who always sees the good in others, but sometimes she also ignores all of the bad. That great quality she possesses sometimes comes back to bite her as she holds on to the single good quality someone has. So I'd like to write a little note to the potential suitors of my only sister.
First off, this isn't to scare you. Well, maybe a little. Bottom line, I will be your biggest supporter, but also your worst critic. I want you to make my sister the happiest human alive, and will be rooting for you the whole time. If you give me reasons not to enjoy your company, I'll remember that, and hope your behavior changes as time progresses. If it doesn't, I'll be the first one to wave goodbye from the window as you drive away. Honesty is the best policy, if you don't want to be with her just tell her, don't string her little heart along as you give no effort. Remember, she focuses on your great qualities and always gives you the benefit of the doubt, respect that. Text her, compliment her, make her smile, and we will be just fine. If that sounds like too much work, then hasta la vista dude, see ya never.
Basically if you date her, you're dating me. Sorry if that sounds weird or gross, but it's true. I'm going to be around A LOT, so you better get used to my shining face and loud personality joining you guys when you go out or come over to hang. I want to get to know you as much as I can and will put a lot of effort into that. If you don't put in any effort I won't be too impressed. You and I are supposed to make fun of my sister TOGETHER, which makes it even funnier! See? I'm not that bad. We can have a lot of fun together, and that will strengthen the bond between you and her also. You definitely want me on your team because, like I stated earlier, my opinion matters a lot. Just respect her, have fun with her, and be honest with her please.
I apologize in advance if I come off a little harsh or judgmental, I just want to see someone I care about to be cared for back. Time is precious, and if you're going to be taking my sister's time then you better be worth it in my eyes. Be the gentleman I know you can be and everything will be peachy keen jelly bean.
Xoxo,
An Overprotective Sister
