Re: what family member are you closest too

I am closest to my DH, who I consider to be my sole family. After that I would say my brother and sister and my grandfather. I havent spoken to my mom in years. My dad and I email once in a while. But it is ok, cause my hubby is wonderful.

I don't feel that I am CLOSE to any of them. We aren't as close as aome of my friends or Husband, unfortunatly. I just feel like I can't tell them what I can tell other people I am close to.

My sister and I are extremely different. My brother is alot like me in some ways but he is 11 years older, so that never helped, plus he drinks too much, and I hate that! My other brother is so quiet, and althought he helps me out whenever I need him, sometimes I feel that I don't know him that much. My mom is just clueless about so much, but we are gettng a little closer through the years, and my dad is pretty cool, but I can't say we are CLOSE.

Am I doing this? Is this my fault? Why has it been this way?

Sorry to vent.

I sympathize with you. My family is not that close either. I am close to my sister, but she lives in Massachusetts. We weren't that close growing up (she's 5 years older and very different than me) but now we talk alot. I'm not that close to my brother, but when I've needed him he's really come through for me. My parents live in Florida. I talk to my mom often though. My dad still drives me nuts.

There is no way I can pick one.
I love both my parents and brother/sister/nephew all equally!

I agree my mother, father and sister and my niece and nephew i cant pick one.

I would have to say my older sister. We have a good number of years between us, but we've ALWAYS been best friends. My parents didn't have any other kids besides us and my parents are great people, but they were not very easy to talk to sometimes when I was growing up. At least not the way my sister was. I tell her anything and everything!

My mom. I don't know what I would do without her. She is always there for me. I wish I could do as much for her as she has done for me.

God blessed me with a wonderful husband, daughter, and son. They are so important to me. I would trade my relationship with them for anything!

Re: what family member are you closest too

Its hard, 4 months ago it would have been my mom. Now that she is no longer around, I guess it would be my middle brother. He is 9 years older currently we talk almost every day! But I am also really close to my dad (totally daddy's little girl, I talk to him almost daily) and I am pretty close to my oldest brother too! So I dont really know
