Would you consider yourself a family person or the opposite?

Question

Loveisgirthy · Accepted Answer

My family is overly sacrificial and fixate over so many small ass stuff, on top of politics and their own religious understandings. My mom was taught to be sacrificial, in many of the same ways and I try to teach them how not killing your own development of life and self for others is much more helpful in the long run. However they're stuck in their way and I may never help them. Which is why I'll most likely just move on and be the first to do so. So not exactly a family guy with my family. I question whether they really know me or could ever have the time to know me. I'd be a family guy with my own family for certain. But as of now I don't feel like a family person really.

Nowadays family is important and very crucial to guide you down the path of morality when it comes to outside influences such as dealing with drugs, alcohol, peer pressure, bullying, or someone saying negative things to you. Your family might not be able to shield you from everything, but they will be able to assist you through the hard times and give you the tools you need to diffuse or avoid the situation. I'm a family person.

YollyM · Accepted Answer

I'm not a family person.
Don't get me wrong I love my parents and my siblings but I've never imagined my self as a mother or a wife for that matter. I like the fact that I can go to another country if the opportunity presented itself without having to discuss it. I like the fact that every activity that I partake in is truly my choice not because of trying to please someone else.
I know myself well enough to know that I would grow to resent my partner and/or kids if I were to tie myself down to them.
But that doesn't mean that I do not respect family people.

Smoke-n-Growls · Accepted Answer

Opposite.

I'm not very big on family. My family life growing up was terrible, and my mother by design isolated my father and I from our extended families.

The result is that I don't see family as a good, positive, or reliable thing.

Friends and found family are my thing.

Aerissa_Jade · Answer

Definitely a family person, would love to have lots of kids and a family of my own. It just isn't ever going to happen though.

BCRanger10 · Answer

I'm a family man 😊 The highlight of my day is getting to the front door and hearing my son on the other side repeat "it's Daddy!"

hIopinionated_ · Answer

I truly wish I was a family person but I can’t help the way I am. I like to be alone and not engaging with people who expect. . love, attention, and friendly conversations and hugs. Yes I love them but can I love you from afar? Maybe talk every once in a while? but I’m just not good with people. I’m introverted and I enjoy major alone time

Sorry family members

TransAm85 · Answer

I grew up in a broken home. I knew since I was a teenager that I would never have kids of my own. I liked babysitting for my neighbor while she went out to the bar every Saturday! lol $20 was big money for a teen in the late '90's!

Youryeodongsaeng · Answer

Right now, with my family, I don't want to consider them as my family. They are not good people. In the future, maybe, when I start a family of my own.

It's hard to say. Other than my brother, I have pretty bad relationships with my family. I would do just about anything for any of them though. I think your family is most important.

Blackcosmo · Answer

Sure I want a family some day but I need my peace.

I am, but decided I won’t start my own family because I can’t handle kids for very long and it wouldn’t be right to make their mother take care of them the majority of the time.

Anonymous · Answer

I am a family man at heart, but I'm still not sure whether I actually want a family of my own. Today marriage and children are such a minefield for men and I haven't decided yet whether I want to subject myself all of that.

No If I could I would let my entire family Burn in a Fire if I was in the house when it started fire 🔥 I would go outside and leave them in to burn then I’d call 📞
Whether or not they burn is up to the creator
