I'm complicated. Mother's only child, father's youngest child (and only girl), wide enough age and distance gap that I have never known my older brothers when they were not adults. So as far as my home life is concerned, I'm an only child and I love it. I have gotten more and more introverted as I get older, but even when I was a kid I never wished for siblings because I hated the thought of having to share my home with another person. Plus, to echo someone above, I have always hated babies and small children. But since my older brothers exist, even if they're not in my life, I've still got the "being compared (favorably) to your siblings" stress going on from my dad, who looks on me with a weird and frustrating combination of "She's the baby who needs to be cared for and indulged" and "She's the one who's not a screw-up; she needs to achieve greatness (seriously, kiddo, when are you going to achieve greatness?)." So, long story short, I guess, I like being an only child and wish I was nore of one.

If he's anything like mine, he'd still find a way to compare you to someone. Himself, perhaps, or some of your cousins (I have a lot of cousins). Try to take it in stride and achieve whatever level of greatness feels comfortable for you.

Nah, it's definitely directly related to my brothers. They have both grown up into terrible people (although one may be making attempts to turn his life around), and it's really obvious how bad it breaks my dad's heart. Most of the time it's not an issue, but sometimes...
