Knife Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Do you have one? I do, and he's my own cousin. He's got his own group of friends and I've got mine, so when we meet at major family events, it feels like we're split into two gangs. I don't exactly hate him, but I have the need to outdo whatever he does and vice versa. Same age (I'm slightly older), same video game skills, and same blood. He is truly my rival. Having a rival can be a great thing, turning jealousy into motivation. How about you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Princess Kilvas Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 No, not really. Zero is technically. But only when it comes to video games and such. Other than that, no. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mufasa Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Hm. It seems to change during each sort of period during my life. But I think my only real rival, is myself. Which is some very zen bhuddist thinking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ϲharlie Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Well of course I do. You all know him as Fox, and I will destroy him one of these days. On a more serious note, I don't have any rivals. I never have and never will. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know. Rivals are a good push to help one grow. Comparing each other's growth, constantly striving to surpass the other. The very knowledge that there is someone out there who strives to overcome you inspires yo to grow and become more than what you are. Or at least, that's how I see it.

Defeatist Elitist Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 Not really. Well, I dunno. I guess you can say that my rival is everyone. :D But it's a friendly rivalry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

California Mountain Snake Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 In real life my cousin (In gaming life, well, you know who you are). Although we're the almost the same age, she was always a year ahead in school (born before the cutoff), and I was always trying to prove I was just as smart as her. When she got into Princeton instead of dampening my hopes it actually encouraged me, because although I never would have thought I could get into an Ivy League school, if she could I figured maybe I had a shot too. Friendly rivalries pay out in the end. At least for me they did. Last I heard the Crimson were owning Tiger face too. Nyah nyah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Admiral "Bull" Halsey Posted February 17, 2009 Share Posted February 17, 2009 No, not necessarily. At least, I wouldn't consider him/her to be one. Rival sounds a little strong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
