Answer #1

Alright, I have an actual answer for you. First of all, try not to focus on all of that. Secondly, find out what your interest or talent is and work at it. Whether its singing, dancing, or making balloon animals, it doesnt matter, find something unique that you enjoy and make a name for yourself. thats a difficult position. I hope all works out =)

Answer #2

Okay, just tell your parents that your sick of him getting all the attention. My little sister’s teacher keeps comparing her to me. Tell your brother that you want some attention to. Do something 10 times cooler than your brother.

Answer #3

Too bad matey, you’re always going to be compared to your perfect twin.

You’re just going to have to find a way to deal with it.
