i’m very close to my sister, who’s four years older than i am. she attended oxford for science, and then moved to brighton for history. I’m currently in oxford (not for history) and i was considering moving to brighton (also not for psychology.) it isn’t a set plan, but i honestly think i’d settle in pretty well there at least better than in some more traditional places (“arty”) I was talking to our brother today and he mentioned that I always seemed to copy my sister. I asked him what he meant, and he brought up that -i started to draw when i was very young after seeing her do it (she stopped drawing as much a few years later but still enjoys it. i’m now considered “better) -i started to play violin at seven after she did it (i picked it up a bit faster than she did) -started creative writing very very young. i don’t think this was inspired by her because it was just always something i had to do. (i generally got more recognition from our school about it than she did) -and now i move to a town that she loved, where i’ll potentionally fit in a bit more than she did? this would be the nail in this coffin in copying her. this bummed me out because i always try to be my own person. brother rolls his eyes, “yeah, okay, name.” am i the asshole for the above? would i be the asshole for moving to brighton? my sister has never seemed negatively impacted by any of the above, but i love her so much and hurting her is the last thing i’d ever want to do. INFO: was asked how she feels about it, here’s what i know: she was always very supportive of violin/art/writing, and when I came to visit her rented house in brighton she would often tell me how i’d fit in here, how i should come here some time (i don’t know under what context) still, maybe she was just being kind? i hate pissing her off, she’s pretty much my best friend.
