I've always been very interested in middle child syndrome, but it seems like information about it is extremely conflicting... some say they are "black sheep" loner types who end up in jail, some say they are creative, quiet pushovers, but ultimately the conclusion is always that middle children suffer inwardly.
Weird thing is, an overwhelming portion of my close friends are middle children. Among my friends who come from families of 3 children, something like 80% of the time, the middle child is the most outwardly put together. I'd say that some of them are inwardly the most messed up people I know HAHAHA, sad but true.
I've always thought that one of the worst things I can imagine is discovering I have an identical twin separated from birth, then finding out she is outgoing, smart, successful, selfless, confident, dresses perfectly, sings, and has a Nobel Prize. I'd just DIE. Because then I would know that I was nurtured wrong, not that I was just born this way.

Eh... I think you are too negative and too hard on yourself. You may not be outgoing, selfless, or confident, but you are smart, successful, and you sing better than most people. Nobody dresses perfectly, and not many people have a Nobel prize. So just relax...
