They also write that they don’t like it when their friends compare them.

I’m an only child, and I don’t know any identical twins. Can you give me examples of what their friends say to the twins to compare them?

Can you explain to me what they mean when they write that they want to be their own person, and not just a twin? Please give me examples.

Please tell me if you’re an identical twin, sibling of an identical twin, or the parent of an identical twin.

Thank you for your help.

They mean that they want to be identified as an individual, not a pair. Their friends probably say things such as, "You two do ____ exactly the same!" or possibly confuse them for each other. I do not know any identical twins, and I am not a twin myself.
