Is it weird to have such a good relationship with my brothers?

Question

So I have a twin brother and an older brother.

My older brother is 16 years old, so he is not much older than me. Anyway, I feel totally comfortable around him! He never teases me or is mean to me or anything. I can go to talk to him about guys, school, and friends. Like I trust him and he's really nice.

Then my twin brother is so annoying all the time when we are around other family members. Then when I am just with him I can talk to him about family issues (trust me, there's a lot!) and things I just can't tell my parents. He's not as trust-worthy as my older brother, but he is also fun to be around. He offers good advice and we can always relate to things and he just, like, cheers me up all the time. Then he is super super annoying when he is around other family members and doesn't stop insulting me or annoying me until I am either in tears or I get so mad I start slapping him.

Is it weird to have such a good relationship with my brothers? And why does my twin show off in front of my family?

Answer 1

Your twin is a (nice) twit, and it's always a good thing to have close ties with family!

As for WHY (Chris? is it?) keeps showing off and being mean around the family, I couldn't say since I don't know you both. But have you tried talking to him about it and saying how much it hurts you?

Or just asking him to cut it out since it only makes him look stupid?

Good luck, whatever you decide to do, but I seriously reccommend talking to him, asking him if he knows he's doing it, and asking why. Then see if you can get him to stop.

Answer 2

lol i have a brother that 13 months older then me and all we do is fight. He's 15 and im 14. but my other brothers who are 23, 21, and 7 are cooler. because the 23 year old he is so protective and we can talk about everything. my 21 year old brother he is really funny and all we do is joke around and stuff. but my 7 year old brother is annoying but he is also sweet sometimes. im different with all my brothers.

And i guess i have to be close with them because i have 4 brothers and no sisters and im not close with my mom, so there all i have to talk to (besides my dad, hes cool too.) i just get along better with guys then girls.

Answer 3

Your twin is probably tryin to get more attention from the family.Maybe he thinks its all about you and your brother and not enough about him...

As for the relationship with them I think its great! It must be nice to have that kind of connection with your brothers....I'm the only girl outof my family and I have 4 brothers...the only one I actually get along with is my little brother who is 19 (I'm 21) and even we disagree a lot more than we should now a days...two of my oldest brothers are junkies so I do not talk to them,and my other brother is a fricking JERK and convinced my husband(b/f at the time) to leave me because he had left his girlfriend and they could go hang out and stuff without me wanting him home before 5 in the morning....so yeah needless to say I have a suckyass relationship with my brothers and I'm glad to hear that someone gets along with theirs!

Answer 4

Are u kiddin me its always good to have a good relation with the family, keeps u strong, but dont go to far as u no wat im talkin bout :]

Answer 5

He probably just needs to find an identity and is looking for social acceptance. It's a good thing to have a good relationship with your brothers.

Answer 6

your twin brother just wants to prove because you 2 are twins that he is better then you.and it is really good to have a open relationship with family members.

Answer 7

its not weird. Your lucky to have them. I think your twin just wants to be known as the "best" twin to all your family.

Answer 8

because he wants to prove to the family just cuz u 2 are twins doesnt mean u 2 are exactly the same and wants to be better than u

Answer 9

its not weird, dont be worried!

its really great that you have such a good relationship! my brothers are both at least 5 years older so i dont really have that opportunity, but one of them has been there for me a lot in times of need

it felt like he was the only family member that cared or noticed

so yeah

congratulations!

um, your little brother, being the youngest of three? hes trying to get attention. being the youngun with no real ability to have a mature conversation tries to get attention other ways. it must be hard for him to compete with two older smarter siblings.
