I love that my sisters complain and bitch about how close none of us are to each other, but they do such an awesome job at pushing us away.
What makes me sad most is I am the type of person that can just say "okay, I'm over this." And then move all the way across the country and tell them, "Too bad."
It makes me sad. And I feel like I'm done trying to make these relationships work with sisters who prefer to consider everyone else their family- besides their own.
I'm older than them so it is supposedly my responsibility to keep us together, but they're 18 now they can focus on making their relationships work. I'm sick of being rejected and feeling like I have to do all the work to be accepted.

Honestly being blood related means almost nothing to me now. I have a very small family to begin with and I only really have contact with my sister and one of my two brothers. To me, that is my entire family. The rest of my family is whack and they don't try to have a relationship with me (Read: my mother, uncles and grandma).
You can only give so much and get nothing in return. Staying in touch goes both ways.
I want to spend time with those who are equally invested in having a relationship with me - whether its family, friends or otherwise.
