my brother has this thing that he has to be better than me in everything i do. for example we were in a arcade and they had that basketball game where u shoot the balls and i got a higher score than he did and he didnt show it but i knew that it bothered him that i beat him in basketball.. even hate home when we are playin like horse or something he gets mad when i keep gettin them in and he keeps missing also i have been hip hop dancing for 6 years and my bro always has to try and show off dance moves in front of me even tho he cant dance that good and he's like ha i bet you cant do that and i just play dumb and say no i cant do that.. i mean its soo annoying that he has to compete in everything i can do... what should i do i mean its so dumb for a 19 year old to compete with me and im only 14 its kinda pathetic
so what should i do about it??? (link)

Hey. A LOT of people have a problem with competitiveness and I know, it's very annoying! It also makes you feel as if you have to compete back sometimes, right? Or just pretend that you're bad at something so you don't have to hear him act all upset, mad, or angry. Well I would talk to your mom or dad about it. Now they may feel bad because it's their son and may not make you feel any better because they love both of you so much and wouldn't talk about either of you to the other one. Obviously, right? But they may help out and have a talk with the both of you :). Another option is talking to your brother about it and telling him exactly how you feel. He will probably get really angry but if you don't do this it may never end. Next time you're about to play a game with him say no thanks because every time we play a game and I win you get all upset and I don't want that. He may continue to insist that you are going to play but it will lessen his desire to act all upset. I hope this helped even if only a little and please give me feedback my friend.
Chrissie
