I am a biological only child.
1. Did I like it? I loved it.
2. Was I lonely? No, I had plenty of friends.
3. Was I spoiled? I say no. I had the sames things all my friends had. But looking back--I had ALOT compared to most of my peers-- and even more when you facot in that my mom was divorced--so it was singe income household. I know several people that will tell you that I am very spoiled--but I don't think I was snotty about it.
4. Step/ Half siblings--- I have a half brother and a step brother. I never lived with either of them. My step brother is a "bad seed"--I still have issues with him--well, I have issues with the equality between the two of us--I get jack-sh!t from my dad.
My half brother though--that is a long story. He is 5 years olded than I am-- I never knew he existed until I was 13. He showed up at my dad's one weekend to meet him. (My dad signed adoption papers giving rights to the new husband) He maintains no contact with my dad--NONE!! However, we are very close and is a huge part of my life!!! Although my dad does not know that the two of us speak, let alone a very tight relationship.
5. Real World? I think I adjusted just fine. Freshman year of college I had roommate issues--she was crazy, it wasn't me.
Although life being married was interesting at first-- my husband is an only child also. It took some getting use to the idea we were both to having things our way. Now we have it all figured out.
