What it is like living with a twin

Living with a twin has its ups and downs. Everyone thinks it is so cool that I live with a twin but, to be honest, it's not always great living with someone the same age as you, same sex as you, play the same sports as you, has mostly the in same interests as you. You are basically with the someone for 24/7 it's living hell sometimes, they know everything about you, and sometimes you just get sick of it.

It's not all that bad though, and you always have someone there for you no matter what, you always have someone to help you with your problems. There are multiple stereotypical types of twins you can be. You can be those twins who can read each other's minds and feel each other pain. You can be the twins that are always fighting and causing destruction, or you can be the twins that are all of them like Douglas and me.

Douglas and I have are mood swings we can't stand each other sometimes, but we also have those times where we can't stop being nice to each other. I like it like that it keeps the balance in the house, trust me without some fighting the Eberwein Household would be an entirely different place.

Here are some Pros and Cons of living with a twin.

Pros:

• You have someone there for you.
• You can talk to them about anything.
• You always have someone to hang out with and play sports with.
• No matter what I will have a best friend for the rest of my life.
• You always have someone to go on a double date with.

Cons:

• Sometimes you just need your space, but you have your twin bugging you
• You have the same friend group which is annoying because sometimes you just want to hang out with your best friend, but your brother is there butting in.
• Things are always super competitive, so there's usually a lot of fighting.
