I suppose we all have cousins and have experienced good and bad times with them. Some of them are so friendly and good that we feel like are our real brother or sister or friends. I have almost 15 cousins lol I said "almost" because I don't have any interest in counting those with those we don't have good relationship and have good relationship with 2 only. Do You Have Good Relationship With Your Cousins?

I have a good phone relationship with one cousin. I am "friendly" with the others but don't speak with them often.

@Laurakemunto I miss the sense of having an extended family to "go home to."

Most of my cousins don't live near me so I don't see them often. On my dad's side of the family I have too many cousins to count.

@Butterfingers Mostly through Facebook, and once a year all the female cousins (the men politely turned down the invitation) get together for a two day "pow wow" where we catch up and do fun activities.

In our younger days we always got in touch and in fact stayed in each others homes during holidays

I rarely see any of my cousins nowadays so I don't have relationships with them at all really, good or bad.

I barely know any cousins in my family so I guess my answer is no.

I have cousins but rarely do we talk to each other because of our busy lives.

@Butterfingers Women after marriage rarely get time to be in contact with cousins. It's the same with me.

I had many cousins when I was growing up and most of them were younger than me. The only one I ever fell out with was a girl cousin who is the same age as me. We were very competitive and jealous of each other. I could cope with this but then she started bringing other people into our arguments and this really hurt me.
