How often do you talk to your family?

Melaneigh1 · September 2010

I guess I'm weird and antisocial, because I only talk to my mom on the phone about once a week, but it can be more like two weeks.

I text with my sister all the time, though. I have a great relationship with my parents, I am just kind of private sometimes, and prefer to not talk to anyone...I think that sounds weird, but I don't feel like I'm intentionally shutting people out, I think they feel that way, though.

My mom and I talk everyday. My sister and I talk probably 3 times a week. My dad and I talk about once a week.

Part of that is my family all lives far away. I would talk to them less often if I also got to see them from time to time.

PubStar09 · September 2010

I'm the same way. I generally don't like talking to people.

I see one of my sisters probably once a week, Skype with the other one once a week, and talk to my mom maybe once a week.

My mom has to remind me to post pictures of Jack on Facebook so she can see him once in a while, because I'm just so in my own world, I don't even think about things like that.

Once or twice a week to my mother. Rarely to either sister and wehn we do it is by email or text.

I talk to my mom every day. My dad every few days and I haven't talked to my sister in months.

I unfortunately work with my entire family.. my mom,dad,and 2 brothers.. it't a nightmare. I am a really private person in general and because I see them everyday they know everything that is going on in my life..

SBma · September 2010

My mom a few times a week, my dad maybe once a week, sister maybe twice a month (by email or text), and my brother a couple times a week.

greenclown · September 2010

I talk to people on birthdays, when I get pregnant, when I have a baby, when tragedy occurs, on holidays, or if one of us has something important to ask/say that can't be taken care of over text or email. Sometimes one of my brothers and I will have a random hour-long conversation, but that hasn't happened in a while.

I hate the phone.

melodylb · September 2010

I talk to my mom usually 2 times a day on the phone and see her about every 2 days.

I talk to my dad at least through text once a day

and my sister I talk to all day through text.

buckin · September 2010

Meh. I can go a few days without any convo with them and often go weeks without actually "talking" to them but my mom and my sister email me at work almost daily or every other day.

I usually talk to my sister on the phone once a week or see her once a week. They are about an hour away (both of them).

My inlaws on the other hand...we may talk to once a month if they call us. If they didn't call us,I doubt we would talk at all other than a comment once a weekon facebook. LOL

Mrs.Wanabe · September 2010

I talk to my mom and dad about every 2 weeks. I probably only talk to my sister 3 or 4 times a year and we live less than an hour apart.

joanithegreat · September 2010

I talk to my mom on the phone usually 2-3 times a week. But we email each other at work at least once a day.

I don't call my sisters very often just because I am not really a phone person. We get along well though and usually just talk on facebook.

TheMrs923 · September 2010

I talk to my mom about every-other-day. I txt with my sisters all the time and I talk to my dad about once a week.

Mysterious_wife · September 2010

I talk to my mom way too much. I am trying to distance myself, but with Allie it is pretty hard. My dad and brother I talk to a few times a week. My oldest brother I talk to twice a week, sometimes more. Everyone (aunts, uncles, cousins) calls about once a week to check in on use. It is rather annoying. I have a huge close family, sometimes smoothering.

Sounds like my life. I talk to my mother entirely too much too and it is smothering. That's why about every 6 months we have a huge blowout and don't speak until my father steps in and mediates.

I talk to my mom every day or every other day. Sometimes just really short question/answer type calls. My dad? Whenever he answers the phone at the house haha or when OSU is playing and I need to discuss a play.

Multiple times a day Embarrassed

My sister and I text each other all day, before texting was available we'd call eachother at least twice a day.I see her pretty much everyday also because 3 days a week she watches DD and the other days we'll visit. I talk to my mom normally a couple times a day through text. My parents live down the street from us so I visit a few times a week with DD.

MrsT2008 · September 2010

I talk to my mom basically every day - usually by phone, sometimes just email if our schedules don't mesh for a phone convo.

Talk to Dad once every week or so - he's not really a phone person

Talk to my sister almost exclusively by email and not very often. She's not one for chit chat either and we're not that close.

swimrbride · September 2010

I talk to my mom 2 or 3 times a day. We are weirdly close though because it was just me and her when I was growing up

bumpuser794640 · September 2010

I call my mom or vice versa 1-2 times per week. When I was in college/first married we talked every night.

I text or call my sister once every couple of months (bad sister, I know), otherwise I never hear from her.

My grandma and aunt I talk to about once a month.

I never talk to my stepmom/half-bro, or my older sister. And I'm OK with that.

DH calls both of his parents a few times a week, and his brother once every week or two.
