I've never been close with my extended family, especially extended family on my dad's side. My grandparents on mum's side I get a card for birthdays and Christmas, we talk and catch them up on what's going on in our lives, but there has never been a deep relationship there. I love them, ofcourse, I see them when I can as they're in Adelaide. However, my dad's family are a completely different story. My mum never liked them, since early on I haven't seen them, my dad's parents never send us Christmas or birthday cards, they never ask how we are and I don't want them too, why after all this time should they start now? I don't know them, they do
