Is it normal for an older brother to gate keep stuff from you?
My older brother has always been a bit of a bully and I’d try to ask him for advice on stuff he’s experienced and he’d gatekeep and stay silent or say I don’t know. The other day someone he just met asked him about a similar topic and he gave him advice in detail, he’s never sat down and had a chat with me or put me on stuff or even compliment me. He’d come back from the barbers and I’d tell him how nice his haircut is even if theres a slight issue, when I get a haircut he makes me feel like absolute shit and say why did you do that, the fade is messed up, the linup isn’t great when literally everyone complimented me on it but he just wanted to hate.Is this normal. I’m tired I just feel like he’s never done anything for me and always uses me and is only nice when he needs something. Is anyone else like this to ther younger brother.
