I’m a twin. I’m slightly older than she is, which is fine, but in some areas it really shows. My mother always had me look out for her so she’s dependent, needy, and indecisive. She made very few friends growing up and jus sort of hung on to mine. She constantly complains about being unhappy in her circumstances (she’s broke) but makes little effort to change them. Everything becomes “why didn’t you remind me” “why didn’t you tell me..” She constantly seems to crave attention to the point that she’ll either talk to much or talk over people. She also has a bad habit of telling other people’s business while trying to be funny which is a huge pain in the a** as it tends to be my business. She applied to the same summer jobs that I did at the behest of our mother, which I feel some kind of way about. Training went exactly as I thought it would, she talked a lot, inserted herself into other people’s conversations, and tried to be funny. We’re easily recognizable as twins so it pisses me off because people lump us together as a unit. Her socially awkward behavior reflects poorly on me. And since she’s socially awkward all she does is hang around me and bother me, which doesn’t help with anything. I’ve tried talking to her about it, but then she gets defensive and aggressive. I’ve applied to other programs and I’m secretly hoping that I got a spot where I don’t have to work with her and can develop relationships on my own. Does that make me the a******?
