Twins relationship

[lemontea2711]

Hi

I hope eveyone is well?

Does anyone twins not get along I have twin boys 13 who literally hate each other

I think they get along for 30secs of the day if that.

If anything happened they would have each others back however

I always thought twins we inseparable loved each other mine are the complete opposite!

An now we've reached teenager.. they dislike eveyone 😂

I have twins. They are up and down with each other. It’s probably just a phase, OP. Such a tough age.

I think it’s quite normal. My brother and sister are twins and spent their entire childhoods doing their best to upset the other one. Woe betide anyone who decided to try and take one of them on though.

My friend’s boy & girl barely acknowledge the other’s existence and another friend spends most of her time breaking up fights between her girls.

Mine have always been really close. It didn’t stop them bickering when they were younger though.

My non identical twin boys are 16 and they wind each other up all the time but they are close and they miss each other when they're doing different things. They're just brothers who happen to have the same birthday, there is no reason why they should get on better unless they're identical I suppose. Boys seem to enjoy annoying each other, I don't like it but they seem to love it :-)

Mine (boys, 12.5) can be a bit up and down but overall get on fairly well most of the time. They share a love of gaming and roller coasters so they bond over that. They're in different secondary schools and have separate extra curricular activities (one is footie/martial arts, the other ice/roller hockey) so they don't actually spend much time together which helps I think!

@suitcaseofdreams
I separated mine in primary and always felt guilty they went back together in seniors worked on for a bit.. but cause of separate friends if one is going out an the other isn't they argue over that.. they literally argue over one breathing to loud!

I'm a twin and don't like mine! We never have got on and NC

@lemontea2711
mine were same primary school but different classes and entirely different friendship groups then, and now different secondary (driven by need). Hopefully just a phase for yours - it's a tricky age!

My DDs are 14 and go through phases (sometimes seems like the phases last 5 minutes 😓). When they're getting on well, they are like a beautiful harmonious hive mind. When they are not, it's worse than WWIII and they apparently can't bear to be in the same universe.

Unfortunately for the past several months, it's been the latter.

It's so hard I imagined them to e best friends but there worst enemies!!

They don't speak unless it's to get the other one in trouble!

Must be hard being a twin but I see everyone else's an they are quiet and good

Mine are the complete opposite

I grew up going to school with identical twin sisters. They hate each other and have not spoken for 30 years. I doubt they ever will.

Ditto @MissSmiley . I've got 16 year twin boys - non identical in every way . Someone told me when they were babies they would need to divide the world between them . It's good advice - we try not to group them together for time out or with us .

I am an identical twin, and although never hating my sister, there were times when she irritated the hell out of me. Looking back, it did stem from a need to be see as an individual rather than as one of 'the twins'. It was so frustrating being seen as a group entity rather than just as yourself and the teenage years was when it became really difficult. Love her to bits now, but it took a long time and me going away to University and developing my own life separate from her to be able to 'prove' that we were different people.
