Are you close to your family?

One of my friends decided not to go home for Thanksgiving. I was surprised. She told me it was because she wasn't close to her family, and she didn't want to talk much more in detail about it. I really wonder the reasons why, but feel like I should respect her privacy and not ask her more about it.

I’ve always been close with my family. It makes me sad when I hear of people who aren’t.

@SW-User Same! But I understand that there's lots of reasons not to be close, and maybe even for the better sometimes

Let her tell you when she is ready.

No I am an outsider with them. They don't even tell me when they come to town

She'll let you know if she wants to.

@HannahSky Yeah, makes sense. I won't pry into her business
HannahSky · F
@SameSame it's hard to talk about those things in the moment too.. Like right in the middle of the holidays

Yes you really shouldn't ask.
SameSame · 22-25, F
@Lostpoet Right, I'll respect her privacy

No not at all

Yes. If and when she wants to discuss it, she will. I’m closest to my parents and my middle sister. I get along well with my brother. My youngest sister is estranged from us presently.
