How many aunt/uncles do you have?

BC&LM · June 2014

Just wondering after the birthday poll thread--How many aunts and uncles do you (not DH/SO) personally have (including any who have already passed)?

I counted married individuals. My dad is one of three and my mom has a married brother.

I have 5. But my family is super close on my mother's sides and her cousins are like aunt and uncles to me so at least 4 more.

3: two uncles and an aunt, small family. I call my godmother aunt, I had to adopt an extra one.

I have 10 or more just counting my mom and dad's brothers and sisters. If you counted their SO's too, then closer to 20.

I just counted my parents' siblings and their spouses. My dad is #4 of 5 and and my mom is #2 of 3. My extended family is pretty ridiculous though. My paternal grandpa still has all 4 of his siblings who made it to adulthood. They have spouses. My maternal grandpa still has a sister. My paternal grandma still has a couple sisters. My maternal grandma was an oops baby, so her siblings have all passed. I knew them though until they died.

Oh didn't count their SO's

My mom is 1 of 5 and my dad is 1 of 3. They are all married so we have lots of family!

You forgot zero. Both my parents were only children. So I have no first cousins.

I only have two, one is estranged and one is twelve. You can be my internet cousin!

2. My parents each have one sibling. 4 if you counted their spouses.

Like, blood related or by marriage? I have two uncles and one aunt, blood related. They're all married but only my aunt has been married since I was a kid so I don't consider the wives of uncles to be my aunts. DH has two uncles, one is married.

In the prime - I had 7 - that includes people married in. But now I am down to 1 due to death/divorce/people going bat shit crazy.

I have 8. 2 on my mother side and 6 on my fathers (2 have passed).

My mom has one biological sister and one half sister, I only counted the bio sis as an auntie because I only met the half sister a few years ago (different mothers, same father).

However, I would also count my gramma's siblings as my aunties and uncles too because I was mostly raised by my gramma so my auntie and mom are more like sisters to me, so really... I have 13 aunties and uncles, including spouses. My gramma was one of 10 and only 5 of her siblings are currently married or have been in long term relationships that I would refer to their SO's as 'auntie' or 'uncle'. One of her siblings doesnt have any contact with the family and hasnt for years so I didn't count them.

Nope. 15. I didn't add my mom's sister and husband to the 13. Oops.

My DH has 2 siblings and I have 1. But we are one and done. But Nancy has cousins from age 9-27. So basically she doesn't have cousins because they are so much older.

I have 10 if you count blood relatives (my dad has 4 sisters, my mom has 6 brothers/sisters), if you count marriage I have 18 (two are divorced). I am close to very close to four of the blood relatives, semi close to 2 more, 1 is so so and the other three live in Alberta (other side of the country). I also have like 15 cousins. I have been really close to my Dad's family because we grew up near them, but my Mom's family is more scattered so I do not have the same relationships with them (except one of my aunts).

1 aunt and and 2 uncles by blood then they're all married but I come from a big portuguese family so all my 2nd cousins were basically aunts and uncles when I was growing up. LO has 4 aunts and 3 uncles.
