Do you have any siblings? Do you fight or get along well?
My answer:
I’ve written about my siblings more extensively many times before, so I won’t here, but yes, for those of you who don’t know, I have a 21-year-old brother Olek (Aleksander) and a 13-year-old sister Zofijka (Zofia). With Olek, we neither fight nor get along particularly well, it’s all very very neutral. With Sofi, we both fight and get along well, depending on an occasion. We have a lot of differences, but at the same time it also means that we complement each other well. I don’t always believe in that opposites complement each other well in terms of people but here it seems to work a lot of the time. Whether we do the former or the latter, it’s always quite intense though.
You? 🙂
I have one sister, Sigrid, who’s 32 (I’m 34). We don’t fight, but we don’t really get along very well either. When we phone each other, she tends to do most talking and I listen.

Sounds kind of like me and Olek, except for that we don’t need to phone each other as we live together, haha, and that usually, assuming that anyone is talking at all, it’s Olek, and I am listening. 😀

My brother is three years younger than I am. We don’t have a lot in common, but we get along well.

I have two siblings, both brothers. I’m the eldest. Our relationship is distant and relatively cordial. Very little in common with either, and the older we get, the more grumpy we’ve ALL gotten, so it’s not fun to hang out with either. They feel the same way.

Oh, that’s quite sad you can’t have fun interacting with any of your siblings.

We’re just all too crabby and someone always ends up getting their feelings hurt and/or mad at the others. I think it’s just best to stay distant.

Your sister just sounds so adorable!! It must be that cute name of hers.
Yeah, it’s similar with me and my brother in that we have a sort of neutral relationship, but I think we both like each other. It’s just that there’s a level of awkwardness in it that might stem from his high-functioning autism that he does or doesn’t have. (I have no clue. I’ve heard these things, but I’ve never checked their sources.) He’s just very socially awkward. So am I, but not as much, I don’t think?
My sister is such a bad person! But she’s trying to live a nice life now with her fiance (wedding postponed due to coronavirus) and baby girl. I’m happy for her, but I don’t want to have anything to do with it, not at all. Just keep her separate from me, is all I can say.

Hahaha, yeah Sofi is quite a character. While she is undeniably cute for us, I guess it’s not the first thing that people who meet her see about her, she’s actually quite tough and she’s also very tall and brave for her age and many find her a bit intimidating. But Zofijka is certainly a cute name and I don’t know any other Zofias in person who would use this nickname, most Zofias are nicknamed to Zosia, and a lot of people, especially at school, call her that too, but I never do because I hate how this sound.
I think me and Olek both like each other too. I certainly do like him. But things are also just socially awkward.
I can’t blame you at all for not wanting to have anything to do with your sister, she sounds scary.
