    Do you have a friend or anyone in real life who you strive to be as good as or even better? Whether it's academics, arts or sports, you might have a rival.
    For me it would have to be my good friend Ivan. We're always neck-to-neck when it comes to our grades. I'm always constantly trying to best him and him me. What about you guys? Who are you constantly battling with to see who's better?

    I haven't had a "rival" since grade school, but when I did, I had a few. One kid, who he and I would compete at kickball, were always at fierce competition; and the other two were just twins who got on my nerves to no end.

    It's more of a "friendly rivalry" but me & my twin sister tend to compete on quite a lot of things.

    My brother is the closest thing I have to a rival. We "compete" in quite a few things.

    I don't really have a rival in all honesty. Maybe my little cousin in terms of height? Other than that, nothing really much.

    Well, for me, it's less of a rivalry and more of a "let me kick your ass yet again" kind of thing. It's with a guy that I've known for all my life.

    No explaination needed, we're online rivals as well xD So I think everybody knows that.

    Ahm, rivals... I don't really have any, the closest I have to a rival is my brother, but even then it's friendly rivalry, as we get on really well with each other. It's more when we're playing online stuff etc that we really compete with each other.

    I have one sided rivalries with the people in my History class. 86% huh, well I got a 90. I don't understand why they shout their scores across the room, haha.

    Urgh.. probably all my real life friends. I'm actually pretty competitive and tend to compare myself to people I know irl sometimes so it would stress me out if they got ahead of me, especially job-wise. But the person I most see as my rival is one of my closer real life friends, Nina, since she's the one I talk with most often.

    Tbh I'm pretty competitive I try and outdo everyone lol. If someone accomplishes something I'm like "Ok I'm gonna do better" I'm so ambitious it's terrifying.

    The closest rival I have would be my best friend, we always compete in video games to see who is better lol.

    My siblings I guess, there are some moments of "Anything you can do, I can do better," I'll admit.
