4. Type of Twins? Identical
5. Do twins run in your family? Yes
6. Do you know many other people that are twins? Yes

7. Are you and your twin close?

Yes, we've grown up together and although we have (frequent) disagreements, we do similar activities and often together, have the same intrests and freinds.

8. How would you describe your relationship with your twin?

Our relationship is very close but very competitive towards each other. We both try to beat each other in what ever we do.


9. Would you say your twin is your best friend? Please explain why or why not.

Yes, we do most things together and trust each other greatly.


10. If you have other siblings are you closer to them or your twin.

I dont have any other siblings.


10. Do you’s have the same taste in music, clothes, spots ect.? Yes

11. Do you get annoyed when others mistake you for your sibling? No (Im very used to it).

12. Do you and your twin compare yourselves to each other? Please explain your answer.

Yes, as we are both highly competitive and that often means comparing yourself to him to see yhere you beat him and where he beats you.



13. Do you feel that being a twin effects your individuality? Please explain your response

Yes, you definatley are influenced by your twin and vice-versa, and can't escape this if you are around them most of the day.


14. Do others think that you and your twin are close and connected without knowing you?

Yes

15. Do you feel compared to your twin? Please give details of why or why not.

Often yes, many compare us as the good or evil twin, the brain or brawn or even as smiley and frowny.

16. If you and your twin are compared how does it make you feel?

Mainly more competitive and sometimes jelous.

17. Who compares you (family, friends, teachers, ect)

Usually friends.

18. Do you think that identical or fraternal twins are closer? Or does it depend on the twins themselves? Please explain

I really think it depends on the twins themselves and how theve grown up, if they go to the same school, have the same freinds and participate in the same activieties then they are likely to be closer, regardless of being fraternal or identical (except when the fraternal twins are of a different gender, they often arn't very close)

I hope that helps!

Definatly.
especially being identical. Its so easy for someone to get us confused and then you have t explain, no, thats actually my twin.
So you have to be aware that if you do something then the repocussions will fall onboth of you.

yes

i dont often feel compared to my twin, but someimes i feel like she is being compared to me, which feels worse.




16. If you and your twin are compared how does it make you feel?
if peopleare comparing me to her,then i dont really mind, because i know shes amazing. But if they compare her to me i feel guilty.




17. Who compares you (family, friends, teachers, ect)
mostly extended family + teachers + sometimes friends.


18. Do you think that identical or fraternal twins are closer? Or does it depend on the twins themselves? Please explain.
It depends on wether the twins have grown up doing the same things (hobbies schools) etc. Also if the twins are boy girl then they will probably be seen more as seperate people that same sex twins
