Friends VS (extended) Family

Re: Friends VS (extended) Family

Your extended relatives say the same thing about you. The point is with friends we have less expectations , care more about them and work hard to keep our friends happy.
If we do the same with friends , this bond will be much tighter and blood will always be thicker than water.
Try having less expectation , care more about extended family and work hard to keep them happy you will be amazed with the results. Try it sometime.

You’re right…my extended family doesn’t care about me I have little to no interaction with most of them because we all live so far away. How is a bond supposed to exist between us? I’ve known my closest friends for years and it’s come to a point where I don’t ever have to put up an act in front of them and I can be my complete self. Perhaps if I had the chance to get to know my relatives, this might have been the case.
