The member of my family that I'm really close to is either my Uncle or my Dad. I mean, mom is close but not really close, but anyways, my uncle is really close because I can talk to him like I could talk to my self, in meaning, I spill what I have to say, in other hand, for my dad, he is the same reason to my uncle.

My mom. She is the only one in my family that really understands me. I sometimes feel like an adopted child because my brothers look at me like some weird person because I listen to Game music and J-pop. All they listen to is rap and R&B and I can't stand that stuff.

I am closets to my mum. I don't really like any of my dads family or my dad and my mum has always looked after me after my dad was violent or verbally abuse to me. I talk to her a lot about things and last week I moved in permanently with her and won't be seeing my dad ever again.

I think I'm closest to my dad. While my mom is more understanding about certain things than he is, my dad is always there and trying to help me when something goes wrong. He's not as strict as my mom, and he's always willing to drive me places and stuff. He's great. :3

My friends all say that my dad and I have really similar personalities as well. He's really easy to get along with and joke with. \o/

My mother, probably. We're usually in good moods most of the time, and when we are, we go out to eat together, and chat about a lot of stuff. Like how my parents got together/How I was like when I was young. She always tries to understand me even when my actions don't seem right to her. (:

Oh man, my immediate family over my other relatives, definitely, since I rarely see my extended family on either side. But to narrow it down to one? I can't do that.

My mom and I are really close since we do a lot together and we're very similar. We make fun of movies together, she deals with my inane interests, and she's one of the people I can talk to and confide almost anything in. She's always looking out for me, helping me when I need it, and all-around a great parent. I dunno what I'd do without her since she's also been amazing at helping me deal with certain health issues I have. D: She's... a little clingy now that I'm away at school, but I don't mind too much since it's nice to have her come visit every other week or however often it is. xD;

My dad isn't as close to me in the same sense as my mom, but we have the exact same sense of humour. We find everything funny and we can make fun of everything. He's just awesome to be around and we have a lot of fun even just sitting there in the same room ignoring each other on our laptops. (We'll IM each other and demand the other get drinks or do something. XD I literally have a conversation in my MSN logs where I kept telling him to change the channel, so he'd do it and type back whether it was an okay channel, and I'd find something to complain about and ask him to change it again, and so on. SO MUCH FUN, EVEN IF IT'S RIDICULOUS.) He's also the one who introduced me to the internet, sort of. :D He's always been really accepting of everything I do, from my university choice (he was the first to give me the go ahead to apply here, even if it was away from home) to my love of gaming (he got the family a PS3 for Christmas 8D) and just... we have so much fun together. XD Even my online friends talk about how cool he is.

And then my younger brother. He's annoying sometimes, but as we've both grown up, we've mellowed out a lot. We don't fight often at all and if we do, it's over stupid, petty little things that go away pretty quickly. I confide in him a lot, usually weird things about fandom that my parents wouldn't get or care about. We share almost all the same interests and even if we don't, we're tolerant enough to just hear the other out when we get a new obsession. I swear he and I have probably just as many inside jokes with each other as I do with my other friends. XD; I really miss having him around when I'm at school and he's even clingier than my mom is when I'm home or when he visits. 8)

So yeah. I'm close with each family member in a different way. Noooo way I could choose. :( Damnit I want to go home now that I've typed all this... and I was just home yesterday. XD

Unfortunately, when your parents are divorced. You don't have that many encounters with the other side of the family and bonding relationships are tough to make that way.

I live with my sister and my mother, grand parents live ten hours away. I'd say my grandmother when I lived in Virginia, always kind to me and her incredible kindness was always welcome with me. However, I'm closet to my mother... Sure, we get in arguments every now and then, that's common with anyone. She's just looking out for me, I love her. I'm closet to my mother and always will be. She always helps me out in times of need, and I always help her out too. :D She's awesome.

I'm closest with my younger brother. I love my parents and all but my brother and I are like best friends. Yes, we do annoy each other by hogging the TV, playing a game when the other one wants it, stealing ipods, etc. But! We can talk to each other about anything and everything and we even have some similar interests. There may be a 4 year difference, but he acts mature for his age and I don't XD;;

I am very close with my family though~

I'm really close to my dad. I'm also close to some of my cousins. Like... four out of, what, sixty something (at least, the ones I've met so far.)? ... Other than that, I'm not exactly on good terms with my family and I couldn't really care less if they all died, to be honest. I don't care for hypocritical homophobes who overreact at everything and think that religion is the way of everything and discriminate others for being not Bhuddist. Ugh.

Anyway, the reason I'm close to some of my cousins and my father is because they actually have common sense, unlike almost everyone else in my family who most of the time have no idea about what they're talking about, yet they go around thinking they're always right and if you deny their beliefs based most of the time, completely on religion, they'll slap you in the face and physically abuse you. Or at least, that's how I'm treated. I'm close to my father especially because he's done so much for me (though my mom says he never does anything because she never ever thinks about right now and just emos about the darned past) that no one else has done; such as, given me a chance to express my own thoughts to someone I can trust so I don't have to bottle them up all the time. It's just a pity that my mom seperates me from my father because she hates him so much for the most stupid reasons that are all of the past; resulting in me seeing him, very seldomly.

I'd have to say my dad. I get everything I want from him really and I can tell him anything and he won't get upset. He is very good at listening and let's me get away with alot at times. (Not anything that fall under criminal sort of trouble, mind you. >:O )

do dogs count? lol im kidding, i'd have to say, my older brother. We barely have anything in common, but we play video games together. And I can talk to him, even about boys cuz he knows their older sisters/brothers. But it really feels like I have 3 brothers when I only have 1. My friends act like brothers to me too, they come to me for girl trouble and I am like bestfriends with a 9 year old

I never thought I would say this, but acctually, I think it is my little brother O_o or it feels like that at the moment, I don't know why..
Sometimes he is SOOO annoying, but most of the time he is gentle, funny and cool. of course, he is only 10 years old, haha xD But we play videogames together and watch disney channel and cartoon network, haha xD I think he will be a fine young man when he gets older ^^

My dad. We share the same taste in music, think the same [we have often said the exact same thing at the same time, while being completely off the subject], and generally have the same attitude towards life. My mum [who knew him at school] says I'm beginning to become like him, eg, several detentions, just for harmless fun.

I am very close to my family. I am mostly close to my stepmom than my mom because she a lot more understanding than my mom. But I totally love them. I also very close to my dad and my younger brother. ^_^

I am nothing if they are gone.
