I have one brother who, as a child, I did not get on well with as he was "good" and I was naughty!
My parents later told me I had far more spirit than he did, however we were not close.
So, no this question, supplied by Rice (thank you!) does not apply to me at all even though my brother and I are now very good friends and speak once a week - he lives on the other side of Australia to myself.
Yes! We have the same mannerisms, we look the same and people would often confuses us when we were younger (my sister now lives 4 hours away). We used to have arguments every few mornings because we'd both get dressed and realise we were practically wearing the same clothes and demand the other go get changed.
We also often message or call each other at the same time.
however, I am an identical twin so this is not unusual for us.
Genetically the same... so makes perfect sense to me.
Oh yes. My brother and I are nearly seven years apart and yet when we are together we are like twins. It's hysterical. We seem to have the same thoughts at the same time. Never a dull moment.
(also, when we are with our sister . . it gets worse. LOL!!
I think that would be great, Rice!
Wow! That's unreal! Hahaha!
You are so doubly fortunate to have siblings such as these!!! What fun your lives must be when you are together!!!
The Answer to this is very sadly NO. However I have a certain friend of almost the same age whose thoughts are not only like my own, but also at the same time, despite living many miles apart from each other!! We have often phoned each other as well as shared almost exactly similar emails and, as well as being hilarious, it is actually somewhat of a comfort with my own sister and I being estranged after many long years on MY behalf of attempting to rebuild a bridge! I have some truly special e-friends who I also feel extremely close to, We think along such similar wavelengths and it is like we are in the same room!! I feel very lucky to share such happiness with these special people. After all... Friends are the family we make for ourselves!!!!
Well, Jules, my brother visited yesterday and we each had a cut on our right index finger . . !! It was a bugbear as we were laying down twelve 50 litre bags of pine bark and other odd jobs. He must be the bigger sook as I had to give him a bandaid. L O L
. . and aren't we SO lucky to have friends who are as good as sisters!!
Men and boys are DEFINITELY the bigger sooks with any little discomfort!! The 8-year-old next door was whining about a sore which he had managed to inflict on himself while riding his bike. Even his mum, who usually panders to this younger son, told him to have a really good look and then show her again, as she simply could NOT see a thing!! He is such a wimp that I had to go inside where I would not be heard to laugh!!! I must say I felt very proud of his mother for finally telling him to stop complaining about NOTHING!!
Added to this comment, I am so glad that you also know how special having a really good friend is!! It is a real gift!!
No I'm not with my sisters, but I've noticed a lot of twins do this, as I've seen a few twin stories on tv. It's quite amazing. In fact they'll be part 2 of a twin story on sbs at 8.30, July 25.
