Is it normal that I don’t always want to hang out with my twin sister and her friends? Whenever my sister gets an invite from her pals, she always puts the pressure on that I have to go with her and most of the time I don’t feel like it. Her friends are nice enough, so they’re not a problem, but she gets upset with me when I don’t go with her. Just right now, she got upset with me because I didn't want to go to a bbq with her and said, “I’m always going alone. You never want to come.” Before, I used to go with her to almost every outing she had with her friends, but most of the time I was uncomfortable or I’d rather be doing something else, but I knew how bad she wanted me along, so I’d go. We used to get into fights and arguments before each outing. At one point she even said she didn’t know why she’d invite me because all we do is argue or I’m moody before heading out to her friend’s. And it’s not like she reacts this way because she wants to spend more time with me. We do plenty together, like shopping, going out for dinner and other activities. I see her all the time. Is it normal that I feel this way?

    its normal to want to be your own individual. i would suggest that you pick one day/ one hour out of the week where you do something together, just to bond, then the rest of the time, be yourself. make sure that you both have the understanding what that hour is for so that you get the most out of it. and so that after the hour is finished your twin doesnt try to turn that bonding hour into a week, a month, a year and so on. just because you look the same doesnt mean that you are the same person. as long as you care about each other and help each other, thats all that matters. find yourself. hope this helps.

    I think it is normal for you to feel like that because I think since you do almost everything with each other that you just wan't some alone time to your self I agree with that and stand up with what you wan't to do she doesn't control you if you wanna go go if you don't then don't. ^_^

    Geez, it sounds like she thinks you're her boyfriend! Definitely not healthy at all.

    Just because you're twins doesn't mean you have to do everything together.

    Yes. You have your own life, and you don't have to spend every waking moment with your sister.
