There were certainly times when I was younger when I wished that my brother had never been born. Usually these times occurred after we'd just fought over something petty, like who got to turn the TV off or something similar. But nowadays we get along great; mainly it's because we don't have to live together all of the time - he's at uni and I have a job - but the separation has done wonders for our relationship. Now we can have entire conversations in Simpsons quotes without one of us trying to beat the other one up... it's great! :D

When I was a kid, I would have said I wanted to be an only child. Now, though, it's different. I get along pretty well with my brother, especially when it comes to video games (I even plan on using him as my Pokemon B2/W2 "guinea pig" to see if I want to get them). I talk to him on matters that I could never discuss with my parents, including video games, Pokemon, anime, and general frustrations I have with my parents. And I've found out over the years that I don't want the undivided attention from my parents that I would have as an only child. And it works well. He's closer to them (and more tolerant of them), so he gets their attention, which means they leave me to my own devices more often than not.

I have one sibling, a sister who is actually very different than me. She's really more of the girly type, and I often find myself asking her for advice on matters (she's younger). We get along well though and I can't really imagine life without her. So no, I've never wished to be an only child, I mean I was one for a couple years, but that doesn't count haha.

I suppose it'd be cool to have another sibling, a brother, idk someone for my dad to actually do things with. My sister and I spend time with him, but I feel like he just wants to get out there and like throw the football with somebody.

I have a brother and a sister and I wouldn't dare try to imagine my life without them. Especially without my sister who I hang out with a ton and we're really close despite the age difference. Often enough you'll hear me saying that I'm hanging out with her or something aha.

I'm the oldest in a family with four kids. I have a brother who's two years younger then me and we get along really well. We are actually really different (I'm more nerdy and he does a lot more sports) but we love each other a lot.
I also have two sisters. One of them is five, the other is eight. They pretty much are the loudest things on the planet. I don't think they can go a second without yelling or screaming or doing something like that. Aside from that, they watch Disney 24/7 and the computer is right next to where they watch TV, so that's why I know every word to every episode of every show on that channel. They love it though, and actually laugh at the jokes, so whatever I guess. Both of them are super girly, but they are both different and I still love them. So yeah, no sibling trading for me. :P

Is it over yet? Will I ever feel again?
