    I have a great relationship with my brother and he's a really good friend. We hang out a lot too. Sometimes I'm scared we'll have a falling out or that our future partners will mess something up. But we have so many good times that we'll probably always remember those.

    I suspect my older brother is on the autism spectrum. You wouldnt know it unless you knew him well. We get along fine, but him and i are the polar opposite in likes and temperment.

    That fucker has protected me more times than i can count when we were kids.

    Thats why i can guarantee that kid will not forget that moment.

    Yeah mine has protected me too when I was still a kid. I remember him and his friends showing up at school to tell the bullies that were older than me to leave me alone. I will never forget that

    Unfortunately that’s not true. Me and my brother were once very close. Unfortunately due to family issues, culture and mental health problems we had a falling out and we haven’t been same since. I miss it but I have my self respect. He’s a man child who doesn’t want to communicate and I’m not doing to encourage him to talk to me when he should know better.

    On my birthday, I alternate between my parents and my sister, each year I give the piece to one of them.

    NOTE: giving the first piece to a friend instead of a family member may sound offensive to some people, I've heard of cases of mothers crying because their son chose a friend or something like that.

    We Brazilians are very thought with our family.

    My brother and I got kidnapped when we were young teens. Me being the older brother, kept the kidnapper’s attention in me, so he would not point the gun at my brother. I had to taunt him sometimes, and he would hit me with the gun, but I couldn’t stop calling his attention.

    My brother says it was the worse day of his life. I say it was just my job. He is my little brother, so I had to keep him safe.

    On all my 30 birthdays, I've given my first piece to the people I love most, the people who are most special to me. My parents, my husband, my grandparents, and my brother are the only people I've ever chosen.

    And everyone I know does the same thing, because that definitely IS our tradition.
