This is my family. No depth. As long as they “see” me, that’s enough.

I prefer a low effort family. I don't have any guilt about the amount of calls, visits, and information passed. It's easier and I don't feel like I'm missing out or yearning for more.

My husbands family is low effort and my family is the opposite, it definitely makes things interesting

you finally explained my family dinamic. as an adults it's difficult to have close relationships. most of my friendships are also like this. biannual check-ins pretty much but if it gets closer I feel overwhelmed easily. I often disassociate into movies or books.

this made me realize this is why all my relationships feel like this bc being familiar strangers was the norm as a child with my parents. how do I break out of being comfortable like this to build deep meaningful relationships?

this is how my birth family were. we were strangers living under one roof. no real connection, from parent to child, sibling to sibling. NOTHING.

khajiit has comments :
it made family vacations so hard and miserable, there is nothing all four of us have in common, everyone goes off and does their own thing and I was always left alone in the hotel room

This is my WHOLE existence. I really didn't have anything to identify as a "problem" with my childhood homelife- because it was literally nothing beyond merely existing in the same house with my family- almost all of the life knowledge that carried into adulthood was because it was something that I somehow figured out on my own. I just felt a deep black gaping wound for decades and I didn't know where it came from and had no one to go to for support. Over the last 5-10 years something snapped in me and I started to heal- and it has been HAAARRDD. I have more or less given up on my biological family, don't hate them, just not going to count on them for anything at all. I'm still learning everyday that I actually do matter and that my needs are just as important as anyone else's.

This was my family. My father was always gone working or at church. And my mother was always like a her own child teenager in the house. We didn’t know if she was gonna even be there or not.

Save your breath. They won’t change despite many, many direct efforts. My parents are little children in 75 year old bodies who need to at least acknowledge their childhood traumas. They won’t. I’ve placed tremendous effort in involving them and they … just … don’t … care. I broke their cycle with my own kids, which I’m proud of, and am learning to let go of my parents. VERY difficult to do.

I have spoken maybe 100 words to my "father" my whole life. He will literally walk away or tune out after one sentence

Asking for my needs was soooo hard. Especially at 50 🫣. It’s amazing when you have a partner who’s more than happy to give you what you need.
