My Sister Is Moving The End Of This Month :(

well mine is just a brother and been married too and living just an hour drive from our new residence..he always visited us if ever he have the time and same with me also although not really that monthly type of meeting but very productive indeed..we get along with but sometimes not due to differences on opinion especially with regards on rearing children..

My immediate family still all live in the same small town that we grew up around. I am the only one who has left and lived in many other states throughout my life. And I have one married sister who now lives in the state bordering ours. Right now, we are all within a good driving distance for going to my parents' house for holidays etc. (even I am closer now), though.

Thank goodness for phones and emails! I moved, basically across the country the other way, from Texas to PA, 3 1/2 years ago. My parents, sister and youngest daughter still all live there, my oldest daughter lives in Virginia now, she moved there from Texas shortly after I moved, her husband is stationed there in the Army. I'm making plans to go back for Christmas this year, even though my s/o won't be able to go with me. We haven't been together at Christmas since '04, and I havent' seen my parents and youngest daughter in two years. It helped me a lot that my family was supportive of my decision to move so far away.

wow ! i lived in uniontown, pa. what is in acme? a job must have caused this big move. i am an only child. and, my only child is married and her husband is stationed in 29 palms, california. with the advent of the computer, however, i am not lonely for her. oh, for a hug or kiss from her....but we keep in touch. if you and your sister both get webcams and microphones it's ALMOST like she's still there with you. but, you're right it's clear across the US.

Everyone is my family is right here (Ohio)in the same area except my younger sister who lives in Virginia. I did live in Tennessee for 8 months. It was so hard for me to be away from my family and friends. I don't know how people do it.. but they do! I am sorry that she has to move away, maybe she will have the internet and you can e-mail her daily, or instant message each other.

Awww..., don't feel bad. My sister moved to Hong Kong. I never know from day-to-day where in the world, her oldest girl is. Her youngest girl lives seven hours from me. I have my son nearby, who is very special to my heart.

Don't you hate that? I like my family living close to me, at least in the same city. I have two sisters, they both live far far away in different parts of the country. I am thankful I still have my mom and she lives in the same city I do. I can't imagine moving across the country, I am a homebody.

I'm sorry to hear that your sister will be moving. I know how you feel. I'm real close to my baby sister and I cried when she moved just an hour away. She comes to see us every other weekend. During college and when I got married I lived 2 hours away from my family and I had missed them dearly everyday. I would come see them every other weekend and after my divorce I moved in with my parents. She will call you just about everyday. My sister call me about 3 times a day, everyday.

Tina, I really feel what you're saying here. I miss my family so much. I was really close to mother and my brother as a child. They live in other areas as well. Too far to visit as often as I would like. Unlike you; I have no husband. So, it's hard. My friends have become my family of sorts. Love them muchly. Life is so odd in modern days with our world's life-style. It's lovely in many ways; but odd in others. I often think about that.

I understand how difficult it is to live away from everyone you know. Although, my family and I, for the most part are not close, being in a different state with only my 12 year old son is sometimes a little frightening for me. I often think, what would happen if something happened to me? Who would know or notify my family. I live in Arizona and I have family that lives in Ohio, Colorado and California. At least you do have your husband. As much as you might miss your sister, you can at least take comfort in knowing your husband is with you.

THE ONLY PERSON I AM CLOSE TO IS MY DAD AND HE HAS MOVED FAR AWAY NOW HE IS REMARRIED I LIVE IN BERMUDA AND HE LIVES IN THE USA I LIVE WITH MY MOM AND ITS HELL ON EARTH TO SAY THE LEAST. WE LIVE IN THE SAME HOUSE AND DONT SAY A WORD TO EACH SHE SAYS IM HER PERSONAL SLAVE IM ONLY HERE TO COOK AND CLEAN. MY DAD IS LOVING AND COMPASSIONATE AND WE WERE VERY CLOSE HE USED TO LIVE ONE DOOR AWAY AND I COULD ASK HIM TO DO ANYTHING FOR ME. BUT NOW THAT HE HAS MOVED FAR AWAY AND LIVING WITH A NEW FAMILY IT IS HARD FOR ME TO COPE I TEAR UP TALKING ABOUT THIS SUBJECT I MISS HIM SO MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I THINK IT IS TOTALLY UNFAIR WHEN HE CALLS HE TALKS ABOUT HIS NEW WIFE AND HIS NEW KID ABOUT WHAT THEY ARE DOING HE ASK ME HOW IM DOING I TELL HIM IM FINE BUT IM NOT REALLY FINE SINCE HES MOVED AWAY AND ALL THERE IS EMPTY PLACE IN MY HEART THERE IS A PART OF ME MISSING I MISS MY DAD SO MUCH!!!!!!!

I am in the UK. I only really have my parents as family and although we live really near to each other we do not really see much of each other. We have never been really really close so it is not unusual for us not to see each other for months at a time. Sorry that your sister has moved though, with you being close I guess it would be really hard.

hello,krausehome.i am from china,a big country not develop country,we dont have much money travel one city to another.we do live so close. in this case i think you can keep in tought with your family through lot's of instruments, i think it's east to cantact with the person you want to easily.on the other hand,you can make more friends in all field.it's a good thing to make lot's of friends. hope you enjoy your life,be happy.
