Any wierd or quarky habits that you share with your siblings?

Re: How are you alike or different from your siblings?

My youngest sister and I have a mole in the exact same spot.

None of us eat lamb…aside from the youngest.

There’s four of us but no one can tell us apart on the phone.

Everyone has straight hair but me.

My niece and I like our pizzas the exact same way…I was a little weirded out when I heard her ask for it the same way I get mine. But I was so proud…:blush:

Re: How are you alike or different from your siblings?

3 out of 4 of us siblings, have a mole in the same place, we all have straight hair.

A couple of us sleep with our knees standing .. our daadi did the same thing

We're very diff in manners though.. i get told i'm the traditional one that listens to my parents and does everything in a Pakistani way, my second sister acts like a spoilt princess, my brother can be quite rude with his opinions, and my youngest sister comes across as too westernised

Re: How are you alike or different from your siblings?

i want to stalk you njgal. i'm in love with you.

Re: How are you alike or different from your siblings?

We finish each others sentences all the time. And we always end up saying the same things at the same time … I know very awkward. :stuck_out_tongue:
We can talk about anything and everything! :smiley:

But then she’s always been the protector. She’s the though one and I’m a wimp. She makes friends soooo easily and I take time. She’s outgoing and I’m shy. :slight_smile:

Me loves my sis :blush:

Re: How are you alike or different from your siblings?

we all have close bonds with each other...we all are loving, caring and respectful towards each other. we all are religious and we all stay away from bid'aat...we are all very soft spoken. we love traveling, we love family get together and we, among so many other traits, love to eat more than three dishes every day [lunch N dinner].

my mom was fairer and father a bit darker so out of 9 siblings, 6 of us are/were fair and 3 are/were slightly dark skinned...all my sisters have mom's features, all my bros have Dad's features.

rest later, may be! :)

Re: How are you alike or different from your siblings?

Long analysis ahead:

Our personalities with my siblings are totally different! But we are really close and with my sister and elder brother we are really close, like friends. I know I can talk about anything with them and they know Im there for them always. I`m usually the one who is most responsible one and taking care of everyone. My siblings are bit more carefree types.

My youngest brother is really pessimistic and Im really optimistic so that sometimes makes me frustrated when he is always pointing out negative things and cant be that excited than Im! =D And he is also a guy with few words haha. Sometimes I dont get anything out from him than just "okay, I dont know, later" and that annoys me because Im really talkative and I like to hear opinions:d In money thing, he is really similar than Im. He likes to save and buy something "big" later, just like I do also. My youngest brother is most distant for me because I have biggest age difference with him. But still we are close, we just dont hang that much together! He is the annoying teenager boy and Im more that older (according to him "annoying") sister who likes to nag and be protective towards him. He looks a lot like my dad but his skin tone is more like our moms. He is really tall even he is just teenager so still growing. Like Im tall too so we both are tallest from our family. Okay dad is taller than I`m but still Im tall! =D

My sister is really artistic, but she hates planning. She is more "living in the moment" kinda type and friends means a lot to her. Im then again planner. I have always plans and I love planning, which can be good and bad thing! And honestly I love spending time with my family. I like spending time with friends too but sometimes I prefer family over friends, and she is opposite in this so sometimes that makes me annoyed! Our movie and music taste is also completely different. She prefers horror movies and thrillers, Im more into *romantic* dramas or comedy's. She listens a lot "radio hits", popular music like my little brother. But I listen more small artists, Pakistani singers and Bollywood music;D I do believe that everyone has that one somewhere and for me marriage and finding that one is one important goal in my life and my sister thinks that marriage isn't that important that career should come first and after career if you find someone decent you can settle down. So Im more romantic person and dreamer and she is maybe more realistic =D I like spending time with kids, and I dont mind playing with them and she then again does not like kids that much. But we both are "forever child's", we think you can never be too old for amusement parks or jumping in trampoline haha. (omg I sound childish! But yeah Im not that serious type haha;) Our common thing is all girly things; makeup, clothes, gossips etc. Even our clothing style is also really different. She prefers bit odd "fashion" clothes and sometimes even bold clothes, like bright colors, new trends and bold cuts and Im more classic and subtle dresser. I like black, white, brown and other earthy tones, really classic cuts and safe choices. People says that we look like sisters even she is much shorter, her skin tone is different and her hair color is different. She is like copy from my mom. People would not guess that my sister has Pakistani dad. But yeah even when we are almost totally different, we spend a lot time together and okay we do have small arguments sometimes but we are friends and she is my only sister :)

My older brother has always been really close to me and we dont have much age difference, everyone thought we are twins when we were kids. He is wilder and really carefree compared to me. He was the one who always got in trouble when we were little and I always tried to save him and talk with our parents that he wont get punished ;D He always got really stupid ideas and then I always tried to talk him out from those ideas, sometimes it worked and sometimes it didnt. He doesnt think before he does something and Im opposite; I think 10 times before doing or saying something. So sometimes my way is better and sometimes his way is better. I think he must have much more adventures and things to tell his future kids and grand kids than I have. Even I have saved him so many times, Im there for him- always. He can be bit too carefree and irresponsible sometimes but its his personality and maybe that changes after he gets bit older. My brother is also really joker. He is usually that one who decides to make something really funny middle of really quiet room like dinner and us siblings and our cousins burst out of laugh and all older people looks badly or wondering what happened ;D Also he is that prankster and that one who scares you in dark room by jumping out behind the door ;D He is really good cook and that comes from my dad. My brother is into Bollywood movies and Pakistani music so thats our common thing. And we are maybe more Pakistani and closer to our dad than my younger siblings who are closer to our mom. My brother is also copy from my dad but he has some moms features like freckles ;D And he is much shorter than my younger bro. He is probably almost same height than I`m so not that tall because he is a guy.

But yeah even when we are different, we get along well with each other. And they mean the world for me. We dont have much age difference so thats probably one reason also why we get along so well together. We do have some arguments sometimes, but I think it`s normal to have small arguments. I love my siblings <3

Re: How are you alike or different from your siblings?

same habits:)
n my sis is 1.5yrs younger than me but if someone doesnt know that…they think we r twins

Re: How are you alike or different from your siblings?

We are poles apart. We don't even look alike. Don't share any habits. Very different personalities.

Re: How are you alike or different from your siblings?

Same here

Re: How are you alike or different from your siblings?

Re: How are you alike or different from your siblings?

I have one sister and we do look similar. I am 3 years and 5 days older than her. Our birthdays fall in the same month, 5 days apart, so remembering her birthday is a piece of cake.

Re: How are you alike or different from your siblings?

Sister and I don't look alike, very different personalities, she's type A and I am type B but you can't tell us apart on the phone. We use the same language using words and sentences that start in urdu and end in English. I like animals and she hates them. Bro is allergic to all of them.

Bro and I love cereal and we love T.V. We both like eating cereal while watching t.v

All three of us are foodies.

My daughter and my sister are alike. In very wierd ways. They are clumsy. Drop things and walk into walls. They like and eat the same things. They even look alike.

Re: How are you alike or different from your siblings?

My sister and I are exactly One year, one month and one day apart :D We love telling people that :p

Re: How are you alike or different from your siblings?

This is such an interesting thread.This is making me think too much as well.
We are three sisters.
We have totally different personalities,habits and traits.
We have been told that we all sound the same and talk the same way.
We do not look alike but it has been said that it easy to look at us and tell that we are sisters and this is true.There is something about the facial features we share,not sure what though.

Weird habits..some of them we share.They are all related to being a lil OCD..:D
On top of my head we all three have issues of sleeping in hotel beds and using their blankets or walking bare foot in hotel rooms.These things make me believe we are sisters,despite having totally opposite personalities..!

I love my sisters....!!

Re: How are you alike or different from your siblings?

I've two sisters and 3 brothers. 2 of us are very slim trim, 2 are medium build and 2 are those who can be a bit ideal weight, which is sort of "chubby" in my family as both my parents were slim and tall.

Bro 1 and Bro 3 are so much alike each other, even though there is a good 15 years gap between them. Bro 3 is mashallah se 17 years old now and I see so much of Bro 1 in him, which just annoys me haha! Bro 2 is a darling. I've yet to meet someone so un-selfish as he is. He is always there to help out whenever you need him. We share good communication and our calmness.

Youngest of all is sister (lets call her sister 3). There is no one as religious as her in our house. Not even my mother who have been on several Hajj so far. She prays all her prayers at time by minutes if she is home, while I may delay it a bit or miss on and sister 2 is more the carefree type. She will have the occasionally religious fever which lasts for a few days and then goes away. Sis 3 and I are probably more alike, very housy-type and not so argumentive as sis 2.

Siblings are great to have.

Re: How are you alike or different from your siblings?

My brother and I look similar, but while I look completely like my father, he looks like a mix of both our parents.

Other than that, we don’t have much in common. :confused:

I like to think my younger nephew looks a lil like me :blush:

Re: How are you alike or different from your siblings?

3 sisters, look very alike, same sort of figure and height, albeit middle one is slightly taller. Im the quite reserved sensible one, likes family and generally takes control of situation, middle one is loud, likes to be part of the party, smaller ones is silly, and lazy.

2 brothers very different in looks and personality, however we all have the same features as in eyes, nose.

We sisters sound exactly the same (so we are told), my only neice from my sisters side looks exactly like us sisters too!! (its soo cute and crazy, she's like a mini me of all of us)

and when you look at our baby pics, you cannot tell from brother or sister who is who, cause we all look identical.

And then to top it off, my younger brother married my khala's daughter who also has similar features and looks like a 4th sister !

Re: How are you alike or different from your siblings?

Well I have an identical Twin & while our tastes in somethings are similar : as to what literature we read,movies etc , natures are poles apart .

:p

Re: How are you alike or different from your siblings?
