Do you still see your siblings since you are all now adults?

I grew up with a younger brother and older sister. We were real close when we were kids, but as we each left home we kind of lost touch for a while. Now, however, I see my sister about once a month and we have again become very close. She is married I am divorced. Her with three kids and me with one. My brother, on the other hand lives a far distance but luckily we still communicate through e-mail. I know some of my friends who have siblings and they hardly ever communicate with each other. I find that sad in a way. Are you close with your sibs since you left your homes?

Have not talked to my siblings in at lest 20 years ,,, we never did get along so not a big thing not seeing them ,,,
There's no excuse nowadays to lose contact with siblings. Of course there will be those who have some level of dysfunction in their family where the ties won't be strong.
For those that have a good family keep close, stay in touch, family is important.. You don't realize this until you lose them.

On a regular basis. We are still close after all these years.

Yes, absoutely. I love my brothers and sister. We talk regulary, weekly, sometimes multiple times a week. We text, etc too. We are all 50 years old and older.

I have 2 brothers and 3 sisters. I am close to all of them except my older sister. Unfortunately she is bipolar and diffulcut to be around so I typically only see her on holidays or family gatherings. I feel very fortunate to have so many siblings and to know that they always have my back.

I am close to my sister but I don't speak to my brother and have no relationship with him whatsoever.

Glad to hear you could reconnect. Siblings can become alienated as life takes then down different paths.
i see my sister every week as most of my work is not far from her house so i call in for a chat

I’m very close to my sister and we get together as often as we can.
I'm not close with anyone in my family
My family is 650 miles away
