I don't love my half-brother?

When I was 3 my parents divorced, and my mother got full custody. I lived with her most of my life as an only child, and I liked it that way. I never wanted nor asked for another sibling. It was the last thing I ever wanted. When I was about 10 my step mother who I barely knew got pregnant with a baby boy. I went to visit my dad and my step mom for his birth, it was nothing special to me. I only ever visited my dad once in a while and when I did I never really thought much of my little half brother as I was young myself. I'm now sixteen and recently moved in with my dad to gain a better education because of the schools in the location. My father is in the process of a divorce with my soon to be ex step mom, so she doesn't live with us, and my half sibling is only here sometimes. But whenever he is here I just see him as a burden. I can not get past the fact that I do not see him as a brother and don't think I ever will. He is a pest, and i hate that he is even the slightest bit related to me. I just want someone to relate to what I'm feeling, I can't be the only one out there? I feel guilty for almost hating something that sort of shares relation to me, but no matter how hard I try I just can't shake it. I do not love my half brother. why can't anyone understand that and accept it? I did not grow up with him, and we don't even share a full gene pool. So how can i have a connection with him? Does anyone understand what I'm going through?

    play with him! little kids are fun to play with! think of it this way, one day he might get famous and rich and if you dont make that connection with him now well you know 😂 i know that sounds self centered but hink about it though! Hes not a cat, he only has one life and if you were in his shoes, wouldnt you want your older sibling to love you? even if they were just a half sibling, their still related to you weather you like it or not! Just hug the kid for crying out loud he's probably a cute nice kid and you just don't know it!

    Source(s): all my siblings are half siblings. 1 brother and 3 sisters. My brother doesn't talk to me anymore. my oldest sister ignores me and I don't even know where my other sisters are because only one of my siblings call and hardley ever. You dont want that, do you?

    maybe you're jealous cause you want to spend some time with your father and he's always around

    I do. I'd probably get in trouble for posting my true feelings about my .5 sibling. We can talk if you want.
