Is it normal that as an only child, i'm so fascinated by siblings that...

That I want to get more friends who have good relationships with their siblings so I can sit and watch how good their relationship is?

No note-taking, I promise.

      July 13, note to self. Upon their return to their natural habitat, the siblings have begun to declaim quotations from Frank Miller's 300, in light of some manner of deadly gladiator ritual.

        July 13, note to self. Unknown on-looker by tbe code name of "HamaIsNotHummus" seems to be taking notes depite their sacred promise to refrain from note-taking. Terminate on-looker after victorious gladiator ritual.

        footnote; bring hummus labeled "hamas"

          Haha, nice! I love you, marry me :D

          For what it's worth, the username was inspired by a YouTube video, one which I wasn't able to search up now, but the substitute linked to below should do:

    Maybe you think about doughnuts in the same way, if you know what I mean.

    My father was an only child, and he's told me he would've like to have had a brother or sister.

      My father is also an only child. My mother has a sister, but her sister is infertile, so I don't even have any first cousins, let alone siblings.

          Dang! And here I am, thinking how much hard work it must be to bring up just one kid. How do people do it?
          Not that I'd want to leave my child siblingless.

            I dunno, I don't have any myself. I'm glad there were only two of us, cause there were more toys, money and pets to go around.

              As well as heritable estate, on a more serious note? There are perks, of course, to being an only child, but having someone you really know and can rely on for the rest of your life, that, I'm sure, is a greater treasure than those material things.

              As for toys, back in the day, many of them would lie gathering dust after just a few times of my playing with them, unless friends came over (none of whom I'm in touch with today) -- having three Game Boy models but eventually using only one, stuff like that. Trying to stay objective, I concede that on a typical day it was fairly quiet at home and rarely did anyone bother me.
