Scenario

When siblings draw different lessons from the same family dynamics

My sister and I have completely different approaches to romantic relationships because we each learned different lessons from watching our parents fight and make up constantly. She thinks passion requires drama and I think drama means something is wrong, and when we try to give each other relationship advice, we end up arguing about whose interpretation of our childhood is right.

More people experience this than they realize.
