Getting along with yourself is never easy, but so long as you're honest with yourself and act on that honesty, it gets easier :))

I have a decent relationship with my parents and grandparents. Though they don't let me do things that I want to do, like a specific sport or video games.

They hate. H A T E video games. 

 

Other than that, they care for me...

We're not all that close with each other.  Growing up, I was closest with my brother because back then my dad wasn't too involved in the parenting business--he didn't want to be the 'bad guy' like my mom, who for most of my childhood had problems with her temper due to her own issues.  She got better with it, but we're on completely different wavelengths so it's hard for us to relate to each other.  I'm a lot better with my dad, except he's on a completely different wavelength from my mom, which has been a source for many arguments between them for, well, ever.  I never learned to confide with them until recently, and even then, my primary source of guidance and wisdom is still my brother, who's long since moved out.  We love and care about each other, don't get me wrong, and they want to get to know me better, but on a personal level--between my dad and mom, and between my mom and I--we're all just completely different people.  Most of the personal level energy is spent getting around our respective differences than getting along.  Recently, things between them are better than I think they ever had been, and I'm doing better with them than I had as well, but even so, we operate on our own vastly different programing.

'Yes, I do. We are very happy together!'

 

I've honestly got the best family in the world. Always been close to every single one of them. Immediate family, anyway.

 

And when I say 'world', I mean it. They're everywhere lol. Me and my Mum, Stepdad and 1 of my little sisters (as well as the majority of my family) live in England. But my Dad moved to Texas with my Stepmum and my other 3 little sisters when I was 11 (6 years ago)... : Anyway, so all my Stepmum's family are in Texas, all of my Stepdad's family are in Wales, most of my immediate family are in England (all my Mum's side, not that she had any siblings so I'm referring to my grandparents), and my Dad is in Texas.

Over the years as I've been growing up though, I've noticed that while my family are really close to me, they're not so close to each-other anymore. Or maybe they never were, and I'm only noticing it now because I'm old enough for them to not bother hiding their arguments and insults anymore. But it's sad. I hear the things they say about each-other when they think I'm not listening... or I hear some of them talking to themselves about something/someone, and I see a whole different side to them that the rest of my family don't even know about. I know families are always complaining about each other generally, but I grew up in such a nice atmosphere (aside from when my Mum and Dad divorced when I was 1 or when my Stepdad had serious anger management problems that got out of hand...) that now, I really don't appreciate hearing my Stepdad insulting my Mum behind her back, or my Granddad insulting my other Granddad, etc. It's like my preconceptions of everyone as I was growing up are just being shattered. :|

I've been on pretty good terms with my parents as of late, my relationships with my brothers however, they're a little stormy (my younger brother is not the brightest bulb in the bunch but is over confident; my relationship with my older brother is complicated).

Well...

 

My mum has an Illness so it depends... 50/50

My stepdad and me pretty much hate each other most of the time...

And me and my half-brother get into fights ALOT...

I'm pretty sure I don't have the best relationship...
