Why do you call friends sisters?

Ok that is a serious question I would like an answer too. I am a bit tired of people calling me their sisters to be honest

My friend Britt (whom I met on pnq) told me I was her little sister and we had soo much in common...talked on the phone, wrote letters to each other every week, always talked online...then all of a sudden she gets a man and I don't hear from her...she text me and I was like "dude...it costs me money to text why dont you call! we have free mobile to mobile"..she said "maybe I dont wanna talk to you"..thanks a lot real "sisterly" of you!!

Then my friend Tooty..whose 19 like Britt called me her little sister..we just started hangin out in like May and June and had a blast together!! SHe called me her little sister as well..well in July she met a man too and just stopped talking to me! I told her I felt like she ditched me and she apologized after her man went back to college and when she now needs me again..ha whatever..real sisterly of you...ditch me for a man yet wanna call me your sister?! RIGHT!

So...is there anyone you call your sister who really isn't..and whats the meaning behind it..because if its anything like above..its bullsh**..guhh sorry just really frusterated with it..I dont have a real sister when I think I found some..thats how I get treated! Wonderfully!

wow...okay...People who do that are users! (sorry, but you are!) When I call my friends my sisters, I mean it. I have one friend who I will always call my sister, and the others aren't always there so I don't consider them that. hope I helped

I'll ask you to repeat yourself Chelsey pretending I didn't hear that comment about not having a real sister because you do...ME!!

having a "sister" is amazing! you can share everything with her adn she is the most important person in the world after your family

bsaiclly i had one like this...but then this summer something had changed and i feel weird beside her like she is a stranger or something...

Sisters are like.. I dunno how to explain it. Me and my older sister, we're close, but not close close where I'll tell her everything. But we do have fun together, and then we do get into punchups sometimes.... yeah. Lmao. It's kinda funny lol.

Me and my Sister used to argue tons. Now she lives 5 hours away and we're closer than ever because we only see eachother once every 3 or so months. It's tough, we still talk though. But what they did to you, yes it was rude. Especially the Britt one. But, the other one; people are often blinded by love. They get this deep attatchment to someone else, and are too into the relationship to worry about anyone else. One of my closest friends does this to me all the time. I get her all of her boyfriends, introduce them, set them up and everything. The first one, she actually "used" me to come and see him because I was her only way. He used her, and then told her to appreciate her friends more; because he wouldn't be there for her anymore. Harsh? Yes, but she learned a bit from it.

-Jenna.

Haha! I don't really get that.

But me and you are close and we're cousins.. So yesh. Haha! ♥ youuuu.

Well, I'm a guy, so I guess my perspective of a sister might be different from a girl's perspective.
But I have four little sisters. Two of them are my blood sisters, and two of them are my P&Q sisters, Kristy and Natalie. The relationship I have with my real sisters and my P&Q sisters are completely different. I could put so much trust into Kristy and Nat, that I tell them things I would never tell a friend. I go to them for advice, I give them advice, and we have a closeness that a family SHOULD have. The thing is, I can't do the same with my real sisters. I talk to them, I'm there for them and I love them. They are my blood sisters, and I would take a bullet for them, but I wouldn't tell them things I could tell other 'sisters'. That's why it seems at times like Kristy and Nat are family to me, because that is how a family is suppose to act. They are suppose to support and trust each other.

What I'm lacking now.. is a brother.

Awh! Darien!! That was a cute little speech! I feel so special and loved =D

But mmyeah. I can't tell my sister things that I'd tell other certain people.. I dunno why.. I just can't..

But yeah. I don't really have a brother {blood} ..well I do. but yeah.. long story... but I have Darien =D He's muh Brotherrrr =D

To the original poster... I don't know why someone would call a friend "sister" probably because they don't have one, and have always wanted a sister, so it's like saying "we're closer than friends, we're almost family."
I've also gone through the best-friend-forgets-you thing... sad, but when she turned 16 she just seemed to decided I wasn't good, popular, pretty enough, and started to spend all her time with another girl, basically just ignoring me. I'm hurt, but there is nothing else to it.
I lost a friend, she lost a friend. Now I move on.

Eirisa, do you see your name up there?..Heck no! Fer sure I will always consider you my sister....good thing you knew khal before me otherwise I woulda been ditched all over again haha jk...but yeah I was certainly not referring to you

Kristen..I can't believe she said that to you..that pisses me off..that makes me want to go off on her for real! Guhhh I can't even explain how mad that makes me

T.L I totally agree with that....That is why I considered Britt and Tooty my sisters because I thought they were closer than friends and just got stabbed in the back... I do consider Eirisa and my best friend Sam my sisters though. Really for just that reason...I don't want to be their friend just a "hang out" buddy....although we do hang out, but someone they can always turn to and trust so I agree with you

To everyone else thanks so much for voicing your opinion..well really typing it...it really means a lot to me to have you all reply!

Chelsey your lucky you checked yourself :o)

Your my bubba titta - nothing going to change that girl xoxoxo

Nobodys trying to find reasons to be mad at you Britt!
When we talked online you always added in your just kidding or "LMAO"....when you text us those things you didn't say nothing but that...a little hard to read whats sarcasim and whats not through a text don't ya think??

No one asked for you to change who you are either. I'd like for you to show me once where someone said that. Obviously we cared for you for who you were, but the fact that you just didn't talk to us forever ticked me off...I didn't have to dig to find a reason to be mad at you. When someone says I'm their sister I take it to heart. THen when I don't here from them its a little upsetting. But you've already heard all this once.

People like that are butt holes .
I have people that I call my sisters, because we have this fake family that`s all connected, so i have a ton of "sisters." The only way yu kan get into this "family" is if yher TRUE TO YHER FRiENDS . Even though it`s connected, yu don`t kall that person yher 'sister' or 'brother' unless yu ACTUALLY trust them and yu both love each other .
the only situation that i hate being kalled a little sister is when it`s the guy that i like . but in every other sit. i only kall them my sisters, or they kall me their sisters, if we`re like the best of friends or we really are like siblings .
..ღ__MiNDYY

Sometimes sisters are like that. That's why if you find a really awesome, amazing friend you call her your sister instead. My "sister" is my best friend in the whole entire world and i love her to death. But meeting "sisters" on-line kindof isn't the way to go. You need to feel you know the person's soul like the back of your hand.
