Quoted By:
I hate most of my blood family and I'm a huge advocate for found families as a result but you wouldn't know by talking to me. The truth is a decade ago I chose my family and chose well so they are my for real family now and my blood family means very littlle to me. One of the most abusive people in my blood family died a couple of years ago and I didn't even take time off of work and I will probably never visit their grave - I felt literally nothing. I don't have a frame of reference to know what it's like to have caring blood parents, siblings or cousins.
We moved in secret across the country back then and erased my past. My whole family and I to this day live together in the same house. We are happier for it.
I do loosely keep in touch with my mom and siblings via the Internet but I don't have much of an attachment to them because of all of the shit back then, and how I've moved on since.
Anyway all of this is why I only talk about most of my blood family in very phony and superficial terms, why I'm so attached to the family that I chose, why I dont go home for christmas, etc.
