We are both eccentric, quirky and intelligent with odd little habits and peculiar social skills. I suspect it helps me to be a better parent to her, having been through the experience myself.Wordbirdnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-618358253237839493.post-63949911142086918932012-02-08T09:52:44.337+00:002012-02-08T09:52:44.337+00:00So true - I'm an only too!

The part about being a loyal and true friend really struck me - I tend to do that and I think it is something we maybe need that they don't if they have siblings already. I feel closer to my cousins than they do to me - obviously because they all have sisters already!Clairehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15188028989219458778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-618358253237839493.post-28700893375503016652012-02-08T09:42:33.904+00:002012-02-08T09:42:33.904+00:00This is so interesting to read.
I have a sister, ...This is so interesting to read.<br /><br />I have a sister, but we are looking forward and thinking about the possibility of a sibling for our little boy. Him being an only isn't something I ever worry about, although my husband does.<br /><br />Also I love my own company, perhaps from having a sister so close in age?<br /><br />I think you have quirks no matter how many people you grow up surrounded by!Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18164273565121605276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-618358253237839493.post-43138911345756732682012-02-08T09:38:12.183+00:002012-02-08T09:38:12.183+00:00I'm not an only child, I have a year younger s...I'm not an only child, I have a year younger sister so wwe grew up doing the same things at the same time.<br />It is true that people think single children are spoilt but from my experience, the most spoiled children are the youngest. Doesn't matter how many there are in the family, the last one is the one that gets spoilt the most.<br />As to love/hate relationships between siblings, I could say a lot on that subject. :) But from my experience, I believe it comes down to this - you love your sibling dearly as he/she is your closests family member but at the same time which of course makes the relationship into one being taken for granted and therefore used in all manner of selfish situations, while at the same time your sibling is not someone you would choose as your friend (usually, sometimes he/she is) and you are worlds apart in character.<br />Like all relations between people, the sibling one is difficult and each is different.<br />Btw, I don't think you being an only child has anything to do with relationships. There are always 2 people in each relationship. :)Ineshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12119611878721554991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-618358253237839493.post-37528942294755875812012-02-08T00:01:54.887+00:002012-02-08T00:01:54.887+00:00We are not weirdos!!!

I used to be a shy kid and hated attention of any kind. I'm not so shy anymore but I hate drawing attention to myself. I like keeping to myself, not having to explain why I am a certain way to any one else. Relationships wise, I'm quite happy with the man I've found maybe because he beats me with his introverted-ness!Suhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16961191295563254634noreply@blogger.com
