How do I deal with having a younger brother who's better than me in every way? Let me be clear: I love my brother and I'm so insanely proud of everything he's accomplished and what a good person he is. But sometimes, it gets hard to think about how someone would have no reason to be me if they had the option to be him instead.
(Some stats if you're curious:)
Me:
>5'7", 130 lbs (fwiw there's a gym at the office where I just started working, and I now go every day)
>5/10
>weak jaw, thin shoulders, the works.
>vidya
Him:
>6', idk like 180 lbs
>9/10
>Perfectly proportioned, handsome motherfucker
>concert pianist

All. Anything you want. Take up a hobby. Volunteer. Donate blood. Work out. No body gives a shit.
Also, as an elder sibling myself, shame on you. Never EVER let younger siblings beat you at anything.

I know two brothers exactly like that. The older brother jokingly said he was the prototype

That's my go-to as well haha. But it's also totally true. I've made sure my bro learns from any of my fuckups, I stay up and help him with his math homework,... that sort of stuff
Realize that life isn't about accomplishment, and that you're not two products sitting on a counter. Success is enjoying the life you have.

Imagine if one of them was ugly, browsed 4chan, worked a shitty ass job. He would be on suicide watch!
But OP, keep doing the gym and become a more open and positive person by whatever means you feel good about. Find whatever you enjoy and don't care about what others think. Confidence is attractive. Being confident about playing video games too. It doesn't matter what the interest itself is. Also doesn't matter if you're a manlet, if you own it. Stop making excuses. Some have it better. The three brothers in pic related have. But don't compare yourself to them, or your brother. I can't tell you anything else. Good luck with the gym...

>I'm not proud of myself boohoo help me waaaah
Damn dude, just start doing things that make you feel accomplished. Next time you hear that voice in your head that says "I really should do this thing" go and fackin do it ya dope. If you guys were playing a game of Risk, your brother rolls a 12 every turn. That doesn't mean you suck, that means you have to try harder than him, and if he really really is a piece of shit then you'll end up better than him. If not he'll always be a step ahead, and oh fuckin well. Sometimes life is like that. You'll be fine. It aint a race. If you're happy you're successful, no matter what that means.

A friendly (You) for that Risk anecdote. I really need to get back to playing that game...
