Have you ever been compared to your siblings?

[Len-LC]

I'm constantly compared to my younger brother. It annoys me greatly.

Yeah... To my brother... The smart one, the one who will get somewhere in life... while I'm the not smart failure that will get no where in life. Cause all I care about is Matt and looking after people. I may not be smart but at least I have a heart. I don't have money but Matt and I are creating a family together.. And that's all that I need...

heh sorry had to stop myself from ranting there -_-'

I get compared to my cousins more than my siblings. I look almost exactly like my cousins. Blond hair, tall build, and green eyes. While my sister/mother/father have black/brown hair and brown eyes.

I was also born on the same day as my cousin, which adds even more comparisons.

Coming from an exceptionally unusual family, half and step siblings and etc. We were all insufferably compared to one another. None worse than my younger sister though. Felt kinda bad for her. Comparisons aside, part of the reason I feel bad for her is the fact that she has 3 older brothers. Not sure if any of the women on the escapist know what its like to have one exceptionally over protective older brother ... *shudders* poor kid.

We were all used as comparisons to each other. "Why can't you be more like in ???" So now we all have complexes.

Yes we're twins, it's remarked on too bloody much how similar we are.

Yup, I'm being constantly compared with my sister. My parents keep pushing my sister, because she isn't doing as well at school as I did. And I'm being constantly confronted that my sister is the 'social' one . . . both me and my sis hate it *sigh*

I'm the older of two (by eight years, so it's quite a gap), so it's usually me being used as a benchmark. Most of the time, it's about how good at school both of us was, so its definately in a good way

I've been contrasted to my five siblings (four brothers and one sister) my father has taken to saying one in six isn't so bad, so I guess I've been compared...
