I would venture to say some peoples' sibling-like relationships with their friends are closer, and more classically sibling-like, than those with their siblings. What "key respects" are you referring to outside of being legally related to someone?

[herpymcderp]

Incest aversion, shared household rules, sense of shared/separate identity due to attempting to differentiate each other in the eyes of your parents, competition for parental affection...

There are lots of things that go into a sibling relationship that don't really in a sibling-like one. I think everyone has made their points though, and this thread is more or less resolved.

[diet_poison]

...I definitely don't think all of those things necessarily apply to an actual sibling relationship. Yes, even one where they share two parents and grew up in the same house.

..shared household rules, sense of shared/separate identity due to attempting to differentiate each other in the eyes of your parents, competition for parental affection...

/notallsiblings

My younger (full, biological) brother I have always had separate household rules (he's severely disabled, as in can't even use the toilet on his own). There was never a need to differentiate. The difference in our parents' eyes was clear. And there has also never been a competition for parental affection between us.

And for me, "incest aversion" is actually how I separate "sibling" friends from regular and potential-romantic-interest friends. I have a very good friend that I think of as the older brother I never had. The thought of doing anything remotely romantic or sexual with him.. ewwwwww.... And he's a good looking dude!

Just adding a little more to maybe consider.

[herpymcderp]

Fair enough. I failed to think about the first condition, and I really should include that in my paradigms.

I'm not sure incest aversion is the same as not wanting to bone someone who is a friend but that might just be apples to apples at this point lol.
