My little sister can be very confrontational and this leads to many conflicts between us. But at the end of the day, we are family and I know we have each others best interests at heart. Love will conquer all if it is a relationship you take the time to work on.

Personally I've had problems with my sister and a lot of them were misunderstandings. As soon as I sat down and talked to her and understood her more it helped me connect with her. I don't hate her and we don't act like best friends but we at least have a basic understanding to each other.

You can stop hating her if you start loving her. Know who she is, what she's like, her interests and start paying attention on what she likes. Listen to her, maybe she's having a bad day and nobody is there to listen to her. Avoid arguing with her, if she stars to argue, ask her what is bothering her. Be the big sister she wants to come home and tell her all her secrets and about her day. I have a little sister, so I know of experience. They just want to be listened to. Be that person she's proud to say "she's my big sister". I know it's going to be hard getting along but you'll get there. Just be patient and don't give up. It takes time, it's not a one day thing.

Realize that she is going to be the one person who is going to know exactly what you go through with your family!

you never really actually get to hate your sister, its lack of listening , comprehension and being fair. trying to accomplish those 3 things will clear up alot of tension that goes along throughout the time

Try to look through her actions and see her for the person that she is. People's actions are a reflection of their inner states, maybe try being a little more understanding and try to relate to how she would feel if you placed yourself in her shoes.

Sit down and try to talk with her. Often times you'll find that even though she may be aggravating, she looks up to you. You're her older sibling and she loves you.

Try putting yourself in your little sisters shoes, how would you feel if your big sister or brother hated you? Maybe also spend some alone time with each other and talk about things that could bring you closer together. You could tell her about a boy or girl you like and that could lead to a deeper conversation.

Wait until one of you goes off to college and then you'll realize how much you miss her, and that maybe she's not so annoying after all.
