How can you get a step sister to like you?

Answer 1

Find and cultivate common interests if possible.

Do not provoke nor antagonize them,

and avoid situations in which they might tend to harass you.

Do not let yourself be taken advantage of by being too nice,

so that you would do anything for them (like homework or chores),

or you might become their slave instead of friend.

If you and they both like videogames or sports, play 2-player games,

and don't make a big deal over who wins.

Don't show off and brag about your "toys" or be envious of theirs,

but instead either share them or keep them secret.

Don't fight unless you are both interested in Martial Arts and

are already friends who don't want to hurt each other but just

want to practice your common interest and don't mind losing.

You could instead make an exercise gym out of anything heavy and

some rope and pulleys, just be careful not to drop an anvil on

yourself like the Looney Tunes are always doing. If you're girls

you can do lighter kinds of exercise of course.

If you like to make things, make something together for the

both of you, like a tree house or some other kind of hang-out,

with stuff that either of you like and also stuff that both of you like in it.

If you can make things, make something you know your sibling is

interested in. That is usually better than buying them something

unless you have more money than they do and they don't feel like

you owe them any thing but will probably be surprised. If they don't

seem happy enough, don't take that personally because they might

feel weird or shy about showing appreciation. If they immediately

smash your gift, slow down or back off about making friends until

you know what their problem is and they probably should be left alone

because it could be a BIG problem whether you make a friend or an enemy.

If you are boy and girl step-siblings it might be harder to get along and

find things you both like. Talking and listening is always good. Get to

know them by asking what you both like, dream about, what you and

they might want to do for jobs and where you and they might like to live

and be careful not to ask or be asked about what things you both hate because

someone might do those things if they get mad. Don't laugh and call each other

names if someone says something "stupid" unless you are already friends and

won't mind having a nickname. Watch TV together sometimes but not too much,

just (at least to find out) what you are both interested in watching. If there is

only one TV and two things on, don't fight over it, either record your show or

try to visit another friend who watches it, or see if it will be on again later.

Here are some things to do with siblings and friends: Play games, make art,

crafts, machines; swing, swim, talk, ride bicycles, go fishing, rollerskating,

learn how to make stuff you want but can't buy, start a band or use sound

mixing software, make silly youtube videos, climb a sand dune or hill, make an

island at a beach with a sand castle on it, get walkie talkies,

(unless you both have cell phones with unlimited free service).

You can play "radio station" with walkie talkies unless it's illegal where you live.

If one of you can drive an automobile then go exploring (but not

in bad neighborhoods), go Bowling, play catch or shoot hoops.

You can make a DJ out of a used old computer with big speakers and MP3's,

instead of throwing it away when you have to get VISTA,

then get a strobe light,

and WOW-INSTANT-CLUB!

If you live on a farm then maybe you can build a huge LEGO house out of bales,

and if they went bad for the cattle to eat then maybe you can make a permanent

cob hut behind the fence out of them instead of burning them.

I'm sure there are millions more ideas of how siblings can have fun together,

and be Best-BFF's.

Answer 2

I know exactly how you feel, me and mine argue day in day out about the stupidest things!

I have worked out through time that all though she may not like me completely there are ways in order to make life easier for not just me but the rest of the family who I imagine are finding it difficult that she doesn't like you.

Be nice to her no matter what - this shows to the rest of your family that you are doing nothing wrong. it also means that if she start, you can't then get blamed for not being nice.

offer her advice - there will be times when she goes through things that maybe you've been through before, therefore you can offer her advice in order to make her feel better.

include her in things/share things with her - if you include her in things you do, she feels more part of the family, more included and like you actually like her. Sharing things with her does the same.

I wish you luck. Hope that this was helpful :)

Answer 3

Treat her like an actual sister, you guys don't have to get along, but just be there for each other when you need it.
