Your mother or your father's?

Which side do you look more like?

I think I favor more of my father side of the family but I'm closer to the relatives on my mother side.

I favor and only close to my mothers side. My fathers side never acknowledged me and my brother. The never cared about anything we did but would brag like crazy if our cousins did something similar. They wouldn't have gifts for us on holidays or Xmas but would for every other child. We would see their gifts under the tree. We would either get something re-gifted to us or the broken toys that our cousins got that needed to be returned. When I got married and had a son they didn't even want to meet my wife and son. It is a lesson for me on how I don't want to be with my family.

I look a lot like my dad's side. But I am closer to my mom's side.

Mom's side, I honestly only like two people on my dads side of the family...my grandfather because he gave me his car (he screwed my dad over though so I have a hard time respecting him) and my uncle...love my dad too...everyone else are ungreatful selfish @******* that start **** for no reason..or dead.

Dad's side. They're fun. My mom's side is neurotic and weird.

In all honesty, neither side. My family and I are not on speaking terms. (Long story, don't ask about it.) Though, I guess I sort of like my Dad's family better. I still talk to my cousin and uncle on his side. He's also slightly more sane than my mother.

My Dad's because they all lived in the town I grew up in. Lots of cousins, aunts and uncles. My mother's side I barely know.

Wow, these are some really depressing stories. But it makes me happy to hear that I'm not the only one related to a bunch of lunatics.

This inparticular I can relate to, I have family that acts that way toward certain parts of the family and I think it's completely ridiculous.

My mom's.

In fact, my dad's parents are the only people I know from his side.

I don't get any closer to anyone past my mom, everyone else is pretty much a douche.

I'm not close with either side of the family. I used to be best friends with my cousin on my dad's side, but that's about it.

I look much more like my mother's side of the family but aside from a couple people, I hardly see anyone on her side of the family. So, I like and feel more comfortable around my dad's side of the family.

I was really really close with my dad's parents and a couple of his sisters. My grandparents pretty much raised me for my first eight years. They both started declining health wise around that time.

I was never very close to my moms family. Both side were pretty insane.

We have no association with my father's side. In other words, we are closest to my mother's side.

Dad's side. I'm closer and I like them better. My mom's father is a drunken ******* My mom's sister is a ***** that doesn't want to work and her brother is ok. All of my cousins are annoying as **** on my mom's side as well.

Well, pretty much all of the people on my mom's side live around here in North Dakota, so by default I'm closer to them. My dad is from South New Jersey, so basically all of his relatives live in the South Jersey/Philly area, so I don't get to see them very often. However, I'm very close to my dad's brother. I think I look more like my dad's side because my dad's side is overall pretty Irish, and I look very Irish.

Um, I guess...though I find your assumption odd since you don't even know what I look like.

Neither.

Actually, I'm closer to my wife's family than to my own.

Like more: Neither, they have all passed. My mother has a 3rd cousin, and my dad has a 4th cousin left (he was adopted in 3rd grade by a very small family). When she was alive I was very, very close to my mom's mother. I favor my dad's side because of my red hair, when his adopted mom died she left him the info on his real family, went to meet them and they had a big party, like 50% of the 100 or so people had red hair, was cool to finally realize where I got it. Long story short, not much family alive anymore so my parents, brother & sister and our new families are very close.
