Relationships
be like a sister to someone
be as close as a sister
If someone is like a sister to you, you are very close to her and treat each other like family.
Hear it in real life
Who do you call when you have a problem?
Linh is like a sister to me, so I usually call her.
My oldest friend is like a sister to me, even though we are not related.
The mistake everyone makes
Not: She is like my sister for me.
Say: She is like a sister to me.
Use "to me" after the comparison, not "for me."

How it fits in a sentence.
she is like a sister to me; he is like a brother to me
Your turn: say it out loud
My oldest friend is like a sister to me, even though we are not related.
Say it out loud two or three times, until it feels like yours.
