In addition to our parents, siblings are the closest people we have since we were born, and they have accompanied us through the joyful moments of childhood and shared the bits and pieces of growth together. However, as we grow up and start a family, this is when we need to keep a certain distance and not get too close.
This is not to say that we don't love each other, but from our own interests, after getting married, we may have wives and children or husbands and daughters, and this small family is independent of that big family, and we are not a family anymore. Below I will explain why siblings should not get too close to each other through several aspects.
Have your own ideas
Keeping a certain distance helps foster an individual's independence and autonomy. Over-dependence between siblings can lead to one partner becoming too dependent on the other and losing opportunities for self-development. Everyone should have their own life and goals and not be completely dependent on their siblings. If we are always together, we lose the ability to think independently and solve problems. Therefore, proper distancing can help us develop our personality and abilities.
Avoid quarrels and conflicts
Keeping a certain distance can avoid quarrels and conflicts. There will inevitably be times when siblings disagree, and if we are always together, these conflicts can accumulate and eventually lead to quarrels and conflicts. And the right distance can give us time to calm down and avoid emotional intensification. When we get together again, we can deal with problems more rationally and have less chance of arguing.
There is room for mutual respect and understanding
Keeping a certain distance can also promote mutual respect and understanding between siblings. Everyone has their own way of life and values, and if we are always together, we may be dissatisfied or incomprehensible about each other's choices. And the right distance allows us to better understand and respect each other's differences. We can learn more from each other and broaden our horizons.
Distance produces beauty, and we miss each other even more
Keeping a certain distance allows us to cherish the time we spend with each other more. If we are always together, we may become Xi to each other's presence and no longer cherish the time together. And the appropriate distance can make us look forward to and cherish every opportunity to get together. We can communicate and share more attentively, so that every time we get together becomes a wonderful memory.
Of course, keeping a certain distance does not mean that we have to alienate the relationship between siblings. Instead, we should get together at the right time and have a good time together. We can organize regular family gatherings or trips together to strengthen the bond between siblings. At the same time, we can also keep in touch through **, text messages, etc., and care about each other's lives.
In short, siblings should not get too close to each other in order to better cultivate personal independence and autonomy, avoid quarrels and conflicts, promote mutual respect and understanding, and cherish each other's time together. We should get together at the right time to have a good time together, but also keep a certain distance and give each other some personal space. Only in this way can we build a healthy and harmonious brotherhood and sisterhood.
