Is it normal to hate a sibling?
Depends.It depends
Yes, it’s normal to feel like you hate a sibling sometimes, especially after repeated arguments or hurtful behavior. That feeling doesn’t mean you’re a bad person or that you have to be close.
Sibling relationships can bring out a lot: old rivalries, constant irritation, and buttons nobody else knows how to push. Plenty of people swing between caring about a sibling and wanting nothing to do with them.
If the feeling is constant, it may be pointing to a real problem—like ongoing disrespect, resentment, or needing more distance. You don’t have to force closeness just because you’re family; clear boundaries can help, and it’s worth separating the feeling from what you choose to do with it.
