I distanced myself, relatively, from my parents for a year or so in my late twenties. It was necessary for me to feel my autonomy. Other than that brief gap, we have always been a very close family.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I've always stayed really close with my mother and my father.
I'm oftentimes called away from my family... it's rather hard for me to be away from them. We're very close.
It's nice to have some distance with your family. As long as you're closer to them by love.
Not that we didn't have close relationships with our parents - I'm very close to my mom - but parents didn't think anything of going off for a few weeks and leaving their kids.
I was very close with my mother growing up. I have four older sisters who were an important part of my life. And I've been very close to all the women I've dated. I feel most comfortable around women.
Yes, I'm very close to my family. And being that close to your family, I think you also struggle with how to become your own person.
I do come from a very close family. And I'm fascinated, in particular, with family relationships and the relationships that we all form with friends who feel as close, if not closer, than family.
I am close - too close - with my family.
I had a very distant relationship with my father. It was always just me and my mother. It was a shattering blow when she died. I was 16.
I'm very close to my mother, but not a single other person in my family.
