It’s scary because nobody in my family has deep connections like we don’t share our traumas or talk deep about life or get into dramatic convos about things we disagree with on each other, we just have surface level relationships and it’s starting to feel lonely

Every family gathering is an opportunity to help your family with little things. Hear what’s going on in their lives, hopes, dreams, plans, goals. Nobody is going to look out for you like your family will so do your best to take care of them and hopefully they will be able to do the same.

It is awkward cause you don’t feel like you mesh with them most of the time..You honestly could mesh well with another family. 😔😭😂

My parents got divorced, so now I have to spend more time driving than being at family gatherings to make both sides happy.

Thats why holidays are so ironic. Everyone talks about it’s a time of family and closeness but really everyone is stressed and bickering. It really shows how selfish society is

I feel this. Family beef is lowkey kinda funny cause all the cousins just watch the parents argue and we’re like “why do we hate you guys again?”

Isn’t that kinda weird that family almost feel like glorified acquaintances? It’s like man we share like the same DNA but I’m closer with some of my friends than my family.

No it depends on your situation.. If your family is draining..making you feel lower about yourself every single chance they can ..it’s time to check who’s in and who’s out basically
