My answer to the question is yes. Not many people are closer to their family than their friends.

I have to say that i am wayyyyyyyy closer to my family than my friends. my family will always come first and i feel totally and completely comfortable with them. i talk to them like i would talk to my best friends. i share damn near everything with them. when it comes to friends, well, they know what i want them to know and i always feel as if people are judging me. my family would never do that.

If I know friends are coming over I will clean. If they just show up it's no big deal to me.

I am really close with my mom and we are more like sisters than mom and daughter.

With my dad I was never close to him at all ... It's a long story..

I do tell my friends more than I do everyone except my mom.

I think Im closer with my friends, but i dont have an akwardness with my family. My mom knows me so well its scary, and i never talk to her about my life. My brother and sister also helped raise me, so they know me. And my dad is my dad, of course he knows me.

Do they know all of my politiical stances, what my favorite band or movie is, or what I like to do with my friends? No, but they know most the important stuff about me anyways.

my family is more special to me than my friends. That's because they are a permanence in my life, and I don't really have any friends who are. I mean Ihave friends that I've had for a while, but eventually everyone goes their own way and loses touch...whereas my family is always there for me. We aren't super close but we always stay in touch and help each other out when needed.

One friend of mine is considered as good as my brother. his name is dallas and i'd take a bullet for that dude!
Other than that... my family come sfirst (thats why i consider him a brother).

That is just the way i was raised, we are a small yet very close family!

I really don't have many friends, at least ones I'm really close to, so I would have to say I'm closer to my family by default.

I don't really bother with family other than my mom. I've found friends to be far more interesting, stable and supportive.

I don't know which I am closer to. I love my family so much, but my friends are good to me as well. I have three wonderful parents, three awesome brothers and three sets of family that I adore, but [most of] my friends are great, too. Hard to choose.

I think I'm about just as open with my Mum as I am my friends and as close to her as I am my friends but I think the rest of the family is a different story. I'm close to them but in a different way to my friends I suppose.

I actually look at my mom as a friend and a parent. I don't have any close friends. The type that call every other day to see wtf's going on... I don't have any of that.

I have to kinda agree with Dana. I am very picky about the people I associate with, so I don't really have any close friends. I'd probably say I have a lot of acquaintances, and then one true friend and that's John. So going off that, closer to him than family.

Friends and Family eh?

The words "sound" familiar

I guess closest of all to my two girls and Satin, so a bit of both really

It is a matter of one's own individual opinion. When you treat your family members also as your friends, then you can find a difference. Try not to make your siblings too feel the same thought, make them your best of friends.

i would seem (to my family) that i am closer to friends, but only cuz my family is a pain in the ASS. I work midnights and they come over at fuckin 1150AM "Oh you're awake? I thought you went to bed at 1200PM." NO FUCKER IT'S, LIKE, ALMOST 12 NOW! I have the fuckin toothbrush IN MY MOUTH! I am IN my homer simpson pajamas! plus my family acts so needy all the time "you never call" I'M NEVER AWAKE IN THE DAYTIME! and then my grandmother calls my wife disabled (that's like throwing C-4 into the campfire...) and getting the two of them to apologize to each other is like trying to explain how to disarm a nuclear warhead to japanese man that doesn't speak english!

/rant
sorry i went off on a tangent! (can you guess that they pissed me off yesterday?)
