Correct, he matters more, clearly, and he knows it, which really kills me.
I often hear that Golden Children were as abused growing up as the scapegoat, which I agree with. However, look at them now – both mid 20s, one getting married and one graduating from med school, and still living under the shadow of their upbringing, except one is wilting and the other is happily blooming.
I've taken a turn here – I think the brother is the biggest asshole of them all. The entitlement is staggering, and much like when women open their posts by saying “my partner is amazing”, I'm rudely skeptical of this man's love for this sister he's trying to shove onto his shadow; he has no interest in sharing the spotlight, he's fully bought into being a golden boy.
Idk, I could see someone being disturbed by seeing that even if they’re ok with it intellectually and just needing space. However, I think telling the stepkids was extremely uncool.
Good point. I don’t want him dropping by at 8am ?
Self fulfilling prophecy. Her behaviour or lack thereof will make it inevitable that you leave her
