reading this genuinely makes me upset
like I'm genuinely crying right now
especially considering they hit the nail on the head with my brother and only sibling being ten years older than me
I just feel very alone in my house sometimes which yeah I mean I guess I like it like that, after all my only sibling is on the other side of the country, so I don't have to share a room with anyone or share anything with anyone and most of the time I don't mind that because it's what I'm used to
but a lot of the times I also find myself thinking about just what if I had a sibling that was a little closer to my age
and I see other people sharing fun sibling stories or Growing Up With Siblings stories or whatever the fuck and I just think about how I don't get that, I never will get that, and I don't like that feeling, I don't like thinking about it
just once in my life I want to experience all these sibling stories of having a sibling or two closer to your age just once I want to experience that but I never will and that makes me feel pretty shitty
and for those of you who do have siblings closer to your age please for the love of god don't say "well actually you should consider yourself lucky because I have a sibling close to my age and blah blah blah" or list all the cons of what it's like because it just feels very invalidating so if you have nothing to say but that then just don't say anything
and also if you're going to say anything about favoritism, my mom clearly favored my brother while he was still living with us, so I already know enough about that
