Can I ask why do you hate him? Think about it. Are those reasons great enough to hate a family member of yours?

Think about everything he does that isn't annoying. I have a little sister, and when she gets under my skin I just think about how I know she looks up to me. I know she wouldn't want anything bad to happen to me. And above all, she's my family and that means that we can't really hate each other anyways. Really what I suggest is to just take a step back and reflect on why exactly you feel these feelings. Then see what you can do about it.

I myself have reflected a lot on this since I have a younger brother. What I have come to realize is that we are all on our own journey and while I may not approve of all of his choices I do love him. I may not love his actions or choices all of the time but by focusing on the things I do love about him I have gained a new perspective. Therefore, if you find yourself hating your own little brother try to focus on the good. For instance, maybe one time when you were little your brother did something really nice for you. Or perhaps your little brother is excelling in some aspect of life. Also, on a personal note if your relationship with you younger brother is in turmoil I have found that if you try a little sometimes they will reciprocate. I wish you the best of luck.

Try to see life through your brothers eyes. Thin and reflect about your own life- when u were that age, what all things u did, and try to understand its just a phase that will pass in time

Sibling are annoying, but they are also your partner in crime and closest friend. Just let time lass and remember that you too will always have each other.

First, try considering, what makes you hate your brother? Is it something serious or is it significant? How do you feel about talking to your little brother about what makes you hate him? Talking can be a great start to slowly not hating your brother

Try spending some time with him. Try to really sit down and figure why you hate him and after you get over that, try talking and hashing it out with him.

Decipher the reasons you feel "hatred" toward your brother, to begin. If you can identify why you have these feelings, it will be easier to change your thoughts and beliefs around that. Communicating what you have discovered may be really helpful for both of you, as well. It may take time, but if you continue to work on the issues, the more progress you'll hopefully see.
