Are you Closer to your Mom or your Dad?

I am close to both, more to dad

I'm closer to my mom now, but when I was younger, I was also closer to my dad. I don't know why that is, maybe because we're both guys, we don't see eye to eye on everything, whereas my mom is a little more accepting. I am still close to both, but just a little closer to my mom now.

My dad left us when my mother was already pregnant with me. He had a concubine and he went with her. So since then, I grew up with my mom. But what is weird with our relationship, I was not close to her. Yeah, you read it right. I am not close with my mom not until I was already a teenager. You know why? It is because of the many differences that we have and the mere fact that I grew up with my grandmother and my mom worked abroad. But the 3 of us live in one house. I always keep secret from my mom since I was very afraid of her (she is so strict). There were times that I have anger for her since she always see my errors and never congratulated me for whatever success that I have achieved. I always have self pity at that time thinking that I am so dumb and my mom so bright (she was the 1st placer in the board exam in her time). Not until 3 years ago, when my grandmother got really sick, we were able to sit down and lay all our cards down on the table. That was the only time that we ever have a one on one talk. We poured out all our hatred and the emotions that we have kept for years. After that,we patched things up and make sure that we always have our bonding moments. I have always said before that if my dad was just here, we should have not experienced that kind of thing and I should have been the daddy's girl.

I love them both. when I was still in grade school - high school I am closer to my dad, because he used to send me to school then fetch me after my class..then he always gives me extra pocket money,which I can't ask from my mom.he he But after I graduated from high school, I became more closer to my mom..because, just like you with our mom we can open up about our crushes,boy friend or past relationship and all about Girl thing.and some times i am attending church service with her, then she always treat me out for a fruit shake after the service. ha ha it brings back memories..I missed those old days. happy mylotting.

i am close to my mom rather than to my dad. my mom is very noisy and she always help me with my problems but my dad is very quiet. my parents are sweet to each other but they are not sweet to us. i love them both but i feel the love and care from my grandparents.

I am close to both my parents.Normally it is said that girls are more close to there father and boys are close to there mother.Actually I am more close to my mother as she understands me more then my father does.She helps me doing all my jobs.Helps me in my difficulties.Supports me whenever I am in trouble.She gets me all the things and gears i need.She shouts on me some times when I do something wrong buts its just because of my fault.So I guess I more close to my mum.What do you people say.

I love both my parents, it took both of them to get me to where i am now and i am doing good for myself at 35.Both parents play a substantial role in our life and it very difficult to fill the debt for the major sacrifices they did till we grown up.Indeed the comparison between them will be the hardest, since both of them earn a great space in our hearts for me I love them both equally and I can't forgive myself if I loved one of them more than the other.and may God give them strength and health and bless them.

I am closer to both of my parents...girls are very attached to father and when my father is around i feel like their little child asking for anything but i am not able to share anything with them i am more comfortable with my mom...i spent more time with my mom so i am much closer to her...

I am definitely closer to my mom because she's raised me by herself my whole entire life. She's a very lovable person and I think that you would have to be the biggest jerk in the world to not be able to get along with her. She has a great heart and has helped me to shape who I am today and I will be forever in debt to her for that.

i used to be a lot closer to my dad but since he passed away i've become very close to my mum.

I totally the same with you! I closed to dad when i was a child, every time i met the difficulties, i would come to him and ask for help,i thought he is the strongest man in the world,because he always finish my "task" easily. Then, i'm growing up, i find i'm closed to Mom, i'm a girl, many things i can discussed with her. And now, i have graduated, and working in a foreign trade company, every time i call them, i talk a lot with Mom, and have few words with Dad, i don't why, just don't know what to say,only tell him keep health. In fact, they are important to me.

Hi maria1081, there is a saying, boy more likely close to mother and girl likely close to father, a lot of cases around me and my friends proved this. For me I do like my mom because she gave me massive of love, care, tolerance and understanding, I think my father should learn more from society so I get less from him.

I'm closer to my mom. As a kid, it was pretty much the same. As an adult, I've gotten to know her even better and, although we don't have a whole ton in common, she's a warm person. It's fairly easy for people to feel "close" to her. :)

as i recall, i was never close to my Mom or Dad. In my case, there are two girls and only one boy and my youngest brother receives most of love from my parents. when i was young, i felt unfair: why my Mom and Dad just care about him, i'm also their own girl. Gradually i learnt and got used to this. Anyway, i got some love, although not so much and educated. Now i start to work, sometimes i called back but not so offten as others (i guess). And honestily i don't miss them so much. when i called back, we just taklked about things happed to us--in my family, my homehown, something about relatives or things happen in my company, instead of some confidential. normally I don't ask for introduction from them i just make my own deceions.

In the Early stages of Life,all children's are almost same but as the time passes by then we realize the differences of our Gender and choose the activities around us,as a result girls and boys select the way According to there Genders.but that is the Fact that Girls always follow there Mom's and Boy's follows there Dad's and that is the Beauty of Nature.! However Mother is on top when it comes to necessity in the early years for both...!

I am a Mama's boy. But there are things that you have to do as you grow older like taking care of your own family and living life on your own. Somewhat distance put a distance between us but there's always that love for her deep within. She may not hear from me ever so often but i know she's just there.

Oh, I'll be the first to discuss this :) Great! I'm really with close relationship with my parents. The only problem is that we're living in different cities now. And they are far from me. But we talk on the telephone a lot. They were always appreciating my ideas and will keep helping me. My parents gave me everything they can! And still do it! They are the greatest people for me. I'm not sure that I can trust anybody more than them.
