I grew up as an only child, so it’s really weird to suddenly have an adult sister who appears to know me—or the me she thinks I am—better than anyone else in the world. All my bullshit seems to drive her nuts and yet she also seems wholly at ease with my bullshit. I’ve never hung out with a woman around my age and not worried in the slightest that something I say might render me unattractive. Even with women I wasn’t interested in, I still wanted them to find me attractive.
