This young woman's brother only believed in putting 'family first' when it came to his own wife and kids… not her.

Siblings always have a little beef going on between them. Whether it's because you've lived a lifetime at each other's throats, having each other's backs, and keeping each other's secrets, perhaps the waters are muddied by some sibling sorcery. Families will never truly understand the dynamics between siblings because there's so much history between them, the lore would be impossible to explain–but when a sister and brother have really gone through it together, nothing can unwind that bond except for a fierce betrayal.

The woman in our next tale had just finished college and was struggling to find employment. Desperate, homeless, and unemployed, she reached out to her brother to do her the favor of letting her crash at his house until the dust settled in her work life. He agreed until his Karenish wife got irritable about the little sister's presence. After a few months, and without warning, she packed up the little sister's things and told her to get lost, forcing her to move out in the next 24 hours or else.

Lucky for the sister, she got back on her feet and became more successful than ever, earning a top-notch apartment of her own. Years later, after a rift had formed between her and her sibling, the woman received a phone call out of the blue that left her speechless: It was her brother crawling back and begging to crash on HER couch this time.
