I have a little trouble getting along with my sister because she doesn't like any of the stuff I'm into. For example, my main interests are Titanic, stereos, and ceiling fans, while my sister says mean stuff about my interests, such as,"your stereo is stupid,""Ceiling fans are childish," or "Titanic stinks." There is some good news here, though. Her boyfriend is into Titanic as well.
My older sister was the same way about my interests, she'd refer to my "Stupid music," "stupid TV shows," "Stupid car books," "Stupid electronics magazines," "Stupid Stereo," and the list goes on.
I just wished she'd go about her business so I could go about mine and if our paths didn't cross, so be it. Our parents, although they'd sometimes just to make me feel better say "Everybody is different," they still tried to make me be more like her. They had alot of beefs with me, such as she read alot and I didn't, she liked swimming and I didn't, she played an instrument which I never had the desire to do, and the list goes on. That attitude of their's only fueled the problems I had with her and my other siblings, instead of making me convert.
I seldom see any of them anymore, which is fine with me.
