He's a Commercial Pilot by profession.
We do have our share of kid-like behaviour when we're in the mood(most of the times, that is). It gets my Mom want to poke her finger through her eye into the brain and twirl it around [This line -- Borrowed from an episode of FRIENDS]. She does enjoy our controlled interaction, but that mildness often turns into insanity. My mom gives up and says, "Kaun kahega ki yeh ladka ek Pilot hai." ("Who will say that this guy is a Pilot.") I point at him and laugh hysterically whenever she says that.
But he often treats me like his kid. There are so many things which I have to hide fro
m him. Generally, siblings are the support system for each other. They call saying, "Hey, I'm at the bar right now. Tell mom and dad that I'm at Carol's and will be back home in time." The guy at home does his job of covering it up. Even if he doesn't want to, he will. Because he might want the same job to be done for him when he's out at the bar. But I can't do this with my brother. If I am at the bar, I'll go to some quiet place, call him up saying, "Hey, I'm at Carol's. I'll come back home in time. Just tell mom and dad about it." And then I have to be extra careful about all the possibilities of getting caught. [This situation was used just for an example. I've never been at the bar without letting my folks know. I'm a good girl :D AND, I don't know anyone called Carol. :P]
Because of this, I'm sure even he might be going to such places, fooling mom, dad and me. If he tells me, it's not like I'll go and tell mom about it. But he just wouldn't tell me.
In the exact same way, he doesn't tell me about the girl in his life. I'm sure there is someone. I just know it. Don't ask me how. I want to hear it from him, SOMEHOW. I've given him certain signals which might tell him that I know there is someone. [Like looking at him suspiciously from the corner of the eye, stretching out my right hand and pointing towards his face and wagging my finger saying, "I know Everything!"] It did get the crap out of him, for sure. But he STILL wouldn't tell me anything about it! DARN HIM!
Perhaps he's hiding it because he feels:
- That I'm a kid! *Sulks within*
- If I find out that he's dating people, I might feel that I am free to do it too. And he doesn't want me to do it.
- If I find out, I'll tell mom and dad about it and then they'll push him to marry her right away! [OH COME ON!]
- If I find out, I'll tease his ass off.
- If I find out, I'll stalk him wherever he goes -- like an elder sister. (Though I am younger)
- If I find out, I'll be all judgemental about her.
Whatever it is, I don't think I'm going to be all judgemental and crap. I will just be a nice and supportive younger sister. SO YOU SHOULD TELL ME ABOUT IT. I'm not that small! I've already had my share of teenage adventure. I know what it's all about. I know how to go about it(sort of). SO TELL ME!
I'm your little sister. You can trust me! :(
P.S. If you have any suggestions/guidelines/tricks/torture methods which might help me to get it out of him, PLEASE do tell me. Thanks.
P.P.S. I really REALLY hope he doesn't read this.

:) That made me smile :)
I dont have any tricks i can share bcoz my bro tells me everything :)
You're bro is someone like mine..and you know it! X-(
Its frustrating I know. And this is a FUNNY blogpost...had me smiling all through :D
Elder brothers (to sisters), I feel, are somehow a weird lot of people. Not really the 'supportive siblinfs' kinds. THey are supportive....in a different way altogether I guess. They just want to keep you away from a lot of stuff.
Well...good luck to both of us. Hopefuly things change as we grow older....old enough to get rid of that tag tht says "SMALL"
I dont have siblings... but I used to do this act with my cousins :P
take care.. cheers...
@Shanu: Consider yourself to be lucky my friend.
@Zlaek: Yeah I agree. They are supportive in a different way altogether. You said -- Old enough to get rid of that tag tht says "SMALL". I think we'll never be old enough for them. If we grow old, they will grow older. So relatively, we'll always be 'SMALL' for them. Which Sucks! Anyway, goodluck to both of us :)
@Arv: Cousins! Yeah they are always cool about all this. My cousins share stuff with me. It's just my brother, the REAL brother.. Who tries hard to be unreal.
I wish I had a real elder bro now! There are a lot of girls with the same situation as yours - believe me. So you ain't alone in this. And yes - you'll always be 'SMALL' to him. Sad, huh?
blog hopped here...n liked wat i saw :)
d bar n carol part was funny...n i guess d best way 2 get him 2 confide in u is 2 make him read dis!!! (come on its foolproof!!!)
n read ur prev post too...u actually ate chalk?!?!?!
dis place luks familiar...hv i commented here before???
@Shweta: For youu.. having an elder brother now.. doesnt seem plausible enough yaa. It's cool.. Being a single child has its own charm :) You get to have a pet doggie and all :D
@Blunt edges: Thank you! :) Haha yeah it IS Foolproof indeed.. But MEH! I want it to happen face to face. Dont want it to be cyberized (If that's a word :P). Lets see what happens. And yep i actually did eat chalks. They are Yummilicious. *Slurp!*
nice post n evn nicer blog.. liked it :)
I hav an elder bro too n the same applies for me too.. I hate it when he takes over the role of my parents...
dear jyoti,
thats the first time I am visitng ur blog, got the link from the comment u left on mine! :)
firstly... the kind of back on the bar relationship of bro and sis that u talked about like calling on phone and sharing the pranks and then being a team a=in front of problems that might come from overruling parental guidelines etc etc ... I MUST TELL U ... as of what I have seen of life...its rare! YEAH! In movies its like too too common that u have siblings like this but in real life its tough and depends on very rare luck!
Now..
I have one real brother! 7 yrs elder to me... a lawyer soon to be sworn in judge! lets... get to that!
We were kids back then.. he left the school when I was not even there in the senior assembly! It was ages later that I passed out from school and in the rapid changing world... I feel that there is a gen gap between how me and bhaiya thinks!
He is a critic for me.. who underestimates me in all that I do! I have never told him that how many crushed and infatuations I have gone through... not even a bit of what I do at college with frns bla bla!
WE MISS THE PLACE AND ATMOSPHERE WHERE STORIES CAN BE SHARED!
infact I have so many bhaiya's and didi's self made whom I tell everything...
but U know what
ALL THAT MATTERS TO ME IS THAT....
WHEN I COME BACK HOME HAVING THE DULLEST DAY IN COL...I.E. a fight with frns,tension with some gal etc etc.... he remains the same! talks of movie, sports and news...and all those boring stuff and I KIND OF KNOW... that he really knows why I am sad! but he never mentions it... I KNOW WHEN ANYONE BETWEEN MY MOM AND DAD WONT BACK ME, THEN HE WILL BACK ME...I KNOW HE WILL BE THERE WHEN I WILL NEED HIM THE MOST IN LIFE...AND i guess that "MOST" havent come yet...
I am sure... U will need ur bro one day and he will shock u then!! LOVE HIM FOR ALL THE U HAVE :) think about it, and ul know he is the best!!
Ah, these younger siblings ;) You should try the 'direct approach'.
"Hey, was wondering if you've ever had a girlfriend?"
"Uh, why?"
"I want to figure out if I should tell you all about my relationship or not."
"What?! Yes, tell me. Yes, I have a girlfriend."
"Temme more about her... Only then I'll speak. :P"
"Grrr... Ok, blahahahahblahablaha...."
"hmmm... nice! At last I know :D"
"Your turn now."
"Oh, well, I'll let you if something happens in the next few years ;)"
Easy as apple pie! Get him drunk and put on some senti music...he'll soon be spillin the beans!
Just happened to chance across your blog, and I'm glad I did. :) I have a few friends that have an older brother and they always say the same things you just said! I'm sure it's hard when they act like a third parent, but I'm sure it's nice to have that protective shell around every once in awhile. Once in awhile, being key, heh.
I have an elder sister, and I really think that's the best pairing for siblings. Two girls = sisters & best friends. :)
the age gap must be the factor.. :)
@Lakshmi: Thank You!(for 'beautifying' my blog by praising it :P) And yeah it suckss!(when brothers act like parents.. hmph!)
@Pulkit: Wow! Thanks for that comment. Aapne toh meri aankhein hi khol di! :P :P Yeah I agree that-- "when parents aren't backing me up for something, he's there to do that, if he thinks that there is nothing wrong with it." Its true. I do treasure my brother, truly. Nothing like i HATE him for that or something. :) It's fine. Just that you tend to feel closer to him when you share everything. That's all..
@Ragamalika: LMAO! @your comment. :P It's not so easy buddy. Thanks for the tip though. I shall give it a shot during one of our 'hyper attacks' or something. ;)
@Bullshee: Haha! Great idea! I will surely try this one out. :D But actualllyyyy... he DOES drink.. but not so much. Atleast not in front of me. Perhaps because of the same reasons('I'm a kid for him' and 'if he does it, even i'll end do it' and blahblahblahhh!). Arghh! Life is so complicated.
@Archana: Welcome to my blog! Yeah it is true -- 'it's nice to have that protective shell around every once in awhile.' No denying! :)
Wow.. good for you! 2 girls = sisters & best friends. SO CUTE! :D
@Chriz: Yep, it surely is a factor. :) Thanks for the analysis. :P (okay okay I'm kidding!)
haha. i remember my time. I fell in love profoundly, & when i got back home in Vacations, she (sister - 6 years younger) smelled something fishy. On finding me alone, she kept staring at me for 10 minutes or so (i instinctively avoiding her gaze), & then she couldn't hold it any longer & burst out 'Chupchaap se bata de'. & i spilled the beans then & there :)
She's a hitler though. Younger sisters usually are. She treats me like her pet dog at times, & her personalized teddybear at others :)
Advice for you - learn your rights, & execute them over your brother. He's your buddy after all. Make him spill beans :) take it as a priority assignment.
Yo! KId! :D
Turn on the 'Emossanal Atyachaar' on him. Guys are kind of vulnerable to that.
You've posted this up on the net and you don't want him to read eh?
Good luck ! :D
Heh, but you know, I always wanted to have an older brother if not for my older sister. I'm in awe of you girls that have a big brother that looks out for you - - or more so, the ones with the cute friends. :P
@nP: I really need to learn something from your sister! And my brother really needs to learn something from you. I've tried to ask him indirectly so many times. I really think now i will ask him directly. Because you are right.. I have the right to know it. :)
@Dphat: He dances like a maniac on the song. :P I dont think he'll even find out why I'm playing that song.
Yeah I still dont want him to read it. :P He doesn't know that I have a blog. And I'm pretty sure that he doesn't have a blog. (OMG. What if he has one and I dont know about it, just like he doesnt know about mine?! I'm scared now.)
Thanks for the 'goodluck' I think I'll need it now.
@Archana: Hehe. Yeah.. It's great to have an elder brother. No doubt about that! :D
did he read this
Long time no post???
@Chriz: No no not yet. I dont want him to.
@Shanu: There you go!:)
