Only children of Reddit, what was it like growing up without a sibling?

I can't lie, it was kinda lonely. This loneliness was/is something that still kinda gets to me sometimes, but I've learned to accept it's just a part of me. I got pretty good at hanging out with adults, to the point where adults love talking with me, but other kids my age kinda think I'm weirdly out of touch (I'm 20 btw) I don't have a ton of friends, but I'm pretty outgoing and talkative when push comes to shove. I just don't really like hanging out with a bunch of people I don't know, but it's not the end of the world if I have to meet new people. I've been treated like an adult for a few years now, which is nice. People are always surprised when I tell them I'm only 20, since I look and act older at times, while at other times I act like a stupid kid.

My parents are older, but pretty well off, so I pretty much got whatever I wanted when I wanted it, which was nice growing up but I ended up spoiled (probably still am) since it was just me myself and I with two older parents. I have a hard time with social convention stuff, and can act kinda weird sometimes because I genuinely don't understand/know certain things about how people act since I've spent so much of my life by myself.

Lots of videogames, lots of smoking weed, lots of jacking off, pretty much all the shit I miss in college. Summers sucked as a kid, since everyone always went off to camp or hung out with their families on vacation, while I was stuck going on "old people" vacations where I would end up sitting in a corner playing iPhone games while my parents and their friends went from vineyard to vineyard on wine tastings. Vacations were always hella boring, and still are to an extent, except now my parents and their friends ply me with booze when we go out, which is nice.

Overall I'd give it a 8.5/10, would do again, but can get kinda lonely at times. I can't really imagine life any differently at this point.
