My family really has no contact at all with me, I have no idea why, my sister insists on "email" all the time, and won't pick up the phone. When she does email, it's rarely asking me how i'm doing. We always end up in an argument. I try and tell her positive things i'm trying to do with my life, and all I get is not much of a reaction, just "Oh". She doesn't know how I really feel, neither does my brother. I don't know why we can't all just be a family, especially that i live 8 hrs away and i'm by myself. I feel like it's because I don't have kids, and they do, so she feels like she has nothing in common with me, how stupid would that be. I hate feeling like I have no family. What does everyone think? I'd appreciate some feelings.

Hi Deborah, that sounds a little like my "family." I live in the same city as my sister and we aren't close at all(I'm the 'black sheep' I guess). I used to be sad about it but not anymore because my life has to go on. She finally called me after three months of not speaking to say she "missed" me and wanted me to come over so I relunctantly did and after a couple hours of going down memory lane I realized I didn't miss the "sisterly love." As for as the whole idea of "family" my circle of friends have always been that. So for me just because you share a bloodline doesn't mean family. I hope everything works out for you and that you guys get close.
