Are y’all close with your aunts and uncle? Like do you speak to them and see them outside of family gathering?

Pretty close with my aunt even though I only see her one weekend out of the year 😅 it feels like no time passed at all every time we’re together but my uncle’s a wanker and I don’t care for him

My mom's side I'm very close to my aunt. But my dads side we have no real relationship.

I'm close with my cousins but my mom was the weird not cool sister so her sister judges me and my siblings based on that

My mother became an only child when she lost her older sister back at home (country).

My dad side: he has 3 blooded brother (live in different states) and 3 step siblings and we aren’t really in contact with them. 1 uncle comes around here and there but last I heard was he had some drama with his girlfriend so he come around a lot less due to her.

I was close with my Aunt Nancy. She developed kidney failure & early onset dementia & slowly started to not be able to interact really anymore & then she passed away November 2023. I’m still grieving her. My other aunts & uncles, I’m not close with. I adore my Uncle Jim, but he’s in his mid 80s & I’ve been told he doesn’t remember me much anymore, so that’s hard.

Relatives mentioned are my mom’s oldest sister & her oldest brother. Her middle sister has a lot of issues & is in complete denial about their childhood, so we aren’t close, but we talk very occasionally & same with her husband (my uncle). My mom’s brother’s wife is super phony & gossipy & judgy that I refuse to be close with her, as I don’t trust her. My dad was adopted & was an only child either way.

Nah. I think once i stopped being a cute kid they completly lost interest. Plus we have a lot of moral differences, and they have not been great with supporting elder care with my uncle and dads mother. I just have friendly chitchat with them on holidays and thats about it

I didn’t grow up around them so just no possibility to be close.

I used to be then I had to distance myself from them.

No. My mother's sister said that she'd rather have my dead than be gay. So I cut her off 10yrs ago. That wasn't the 1st or 2nd time she had said something awful either. My mom's brother was never present. So if I saw him if say hi but I didn't communicate with him outside of seeing him once every few years. But a few years ago when I was getting married my mother told me to invite him. I didn't want to because I don't know him like that but anyway I did and he said"i ain't going to your gay ass wedding" and my mom said he was just drunk and that he hates to fly. 🤣 i stopped talking to him.

My mums siblings were horrible to her when my nan (her mum) passed away 10 years ago. We see eachother once or twice a year but I will never forgive them for what they done. We used to all be very close though.
Same with my dad, his brother didn’t treat my dad great so we rarely see him either

Pretty close with all 4 of my aunts but don’t speak to my uncles outside of family gatherings (not my aunts partners who I consider my uncles I speak to them when on the phone with my aunts but my actual uncles I don’t speak to much lol)

My mums side abandoned my sister and I after my mum died, so not anymore.
I have my paternal uncle and one of my dad's cousins that check up on me every once in a while, more lately because of my son's condition. If he didn't have cancer I'm sure we wouldn't hear from them often.

I only have an uncle left. I was close to a few aunts and uncles on my mom’s side. They’re all gone but 1. My dad’s side of the family is gone. Was somewhat close to one of his sisters and her husband.

I have a strange relationship with my mom's siblings, we rarely see them (like around every five years or less often) and occasionally text. No relationship with my dad's sister, but she's mentally disabled and I also have no contact with my dad.

Was very close to one aunty but she passed away. My other aunty and uncle just see at family gatherings
