Yes. I definitely play the baby in the family. Also my older sister has definitely always been my older sister- never a companion or conspirator which I think was very formative as well. Ehhh not sure if I think Felix shows any of the traits of being the youngest. Maybe because he went away to school and I think it seems like his brother might have got quite a bit of focus as a troublemaker.
Yes, I'm very much a leader and he is very much a pleaser.
To fucking complicated of a question you jerk off!!!
Yes most certainly. Im use to having my way as the eldest. But i have worked my ass of and hopefully been a positive role model for my bro. I dont want him to make mistakes i have made. I know my lover is first born too cuz we are both stubborn as hell haha. And she is sooo strong. Amazing person.
I don't think birth order affected us at all
Nah and nah
Me no even though I was the baby I had to grow up fast and take care of things myself. For him yes he was the baby and you can kinda tell
I don't really believe in all that stuff. Once you grow up you have to take responsibility for your thoughts and actions and stop blaming your childhood for the way you are.
Yes and yea
Idk
We are both first borns.... I'm an only child, he had a brother..... I don't think it's birth order that affected us but how we were raised
Me not really I was the oldest
yes, i was an only child so that leads in to me being more focused on myself. need to change that. yes, she was a younger child in a bigger family. would have had a realization at a young age that everything is not about her.
I think because there were so many older siblings i really had to push hard to stand out - i always had to try and be the best at everything to get noticed - i still do that but i dont want to be better then everyone else just want to be recognized as just as good - that was always my goal is to get the same attention by being good at things because i was not good at speaking up - I definitely think that cameron being an only child has impacted his view on the world

I think it did for sure. I'm the oldest and I tend to be the care taker and the responsible one. And as far as my partner. I would say no not really.
I don't know about my parents but I was responsible for a lot more than most people my age
