I belong to a culture where family matters a lot but I see in my particular case, this idillic picture doesn’t take place.
I know in other cultures, it’s easier to put up with this idea about people who matters are the ones you find in your life and you feel confortable with and you trust. But, in my case it’s harder to digest. Anyway, I have found that this is the reality. I don’t feel support by my family or at least, taken into consideration by them. It’s a sour fruit to eat but it’s true in many cases.

I came to say about the same thing. I think the problem is in some cultures, the expectation from family is high because of the appearance of tied relationships. But all of this is just a lie in most cases. Once you need them, all of them disappear like a smoke. In Western cultures, especially Northern European countries, the expectation from families are low, compared to Southern European countries for example.
