I am one who never ask help my family, just because we are not in "good" relation...we don t argue each other, but we are in cold relations; all time i learn to manage myself, no family help. I don t know if is good or not, but sometimes i am a little jealouse when i see brothers who are in good relations, and help each other, but i don t have this luck. all time i try to make all alone, no help; When you have a problem, you will ask family help or maybe you will ask friends help?

I'm sorry you don't have a good relationship with your family. Perhaps in time that could change. I hope so, family can be such a blessing. I'm fortunate in that I have a very good relationship with my family. Therefore, if I need help I'll go to them before going to friends. Also, I think family is more tolerant than friends are, and are more forgiving if forgiveness is needed.

I am very close with my family. And if I needed help I know they would help me out. But I don't like asking for help. I try to earn things so I don't have to have help from others. But I do like to help others when I can and have the money to do so to help them. I ask when I really need it and if I can't earn enough at that time. But I make sure it is payed back.

Hi there Ice Smile. Well i get along well with my parents and we can talk about problems, so depending on the problem, i will address it to either one of them, or just one or the other depending on the nature of the problem as both friends and family can help me - i guess i am a bit lucky in this way.

I have a close relationship to my parents and they often help and support me in different ways. I am really grateful for that, and I always try to help them when I can. I also have a very good friend who often helps me. He has done a lot of me, I have moved many times while we have known eachother and he has helped me every single time, and if I need someone to drive for me or something like that, he is always there for me. I really appreciate it, he is a great friend. I have other friends who help me when I need to discuss a problem or if I need advice, and they mean a lot to me.

I try to deal with any problems that i can with no help from anyone.I would never ask my mum as she is too wrapped up in my brother who is living at home with her who is in his 40s.

I'm really close to my sister and dad. Usually I only ask them for major favors, and try to do minor stuff myself. My dad bought my new car (I'm paying him back). He also helps me with my medical issues, like taking me to the hospital if I can't drive myself, or picking up medicine when I'm really sick. When I was married, I asked my husband to get my pain killers, and he took 3 hours! Day after my leg surgery - and instead of taking care of me, he decides to go mall shopping on the way home, while I'm laying on the couch in agony. Now he's my EX husband.

I don't ask for help from my family either...It's not because they would not help, but I was raised to do what I had to do to survive, and not be dependent on others. Therefore, it is hard to admit that I might need the help sometimes.
