    Pretty sure the only reason my family hasn't disowned me is because they want me to buy them a mansion and make them millionaires etc when I graduate. Of course that's not going to happen since they are abusive and racists. Can't wait to get out.

    I'm close to my family and I'm the black sheep. It used to bother me as a kid but it's cool now. My family is very kind and respectful of me because they think I'm unique (I don't think I am but it's nice they do) and it helped prepare me for the real world. I'm sure you guys know how it is; there are so many different kinds of people and so many are trying to keep up with the Jones' or act just like everyone else. When push comes to shove, being the black sheep helped me stay true to myself.

  • I'm real close to my younger sister. My older brother on the other hand, we kinda have a messed up thing right now. I hate him but love him too. My parents I feel so-so about.

    I'm only really close to a select couple of my family members (the two being my mother and my younger brother). Even then I'm a little emotionally distant.

    Yes, I am! I'm the only child and seriously attached to my mom and dad. Haha =) I'm eighteen and at college. This is my first year being away from them, but they have been quite supportive to me and we talk on the phone everyday. I love my parents so much! XD They're seriously my friends. <3

    I would say that, yes I am. But I do keep a relatively good distance from them.

    No, not at all. I constantly fight with my brother, and arguing with my sister. I'm fairly distant with my parents, the one time I gave my mother insight on how I feel she yelled at me a twisted my words upcin a way that was insultingbto her.
    Whent I leave, I'm going to be gone.
    I've always envied those families where the children can speak freely with their parents and have a sort of comradeship.

  • I wish I could be close but I cant I push people away and create walls to protect me I dont think I'll ever be able to destroy that wall with my parents.. it feels like they never cared about me and now that I'm grown up and there are chances I'll leave them they try to put love between us but it just makes me more angry I find it so fake nowadays it makes me feel revolting, appalling and it makes me more angry.

    I'm close with my parents and sister. My brother and I are too different to be close. I'm not close to any of my extended family.

    I try to avoid family get togethers. When i do go, you'll usually find me sitting down very quietly. I just go to eat. This year i spent Thanksgiving alone in fact. Since my mom made separate food i stayed home to grub in my own comfort.

    I'm close to my mum and sister. Everyone else, I don't see or speak to except on special occasions. I'm pretty happy with this arrangement.

  • Some yes, others no. Like all things it was a choice and I regret none of it.

    I'm very close to my dad's side of the family (very down to earth people who live in Indiana) and I hate my mom side (I swear they all have sticks up their butt). However, for my close family, I only seem to get along with them at times (very rarely). I don't care for my sister though, she ruined my childhood. For me, this is a yes and no question.

    I think my family feel close to me, but I don't feel close to them.
