Missing him..


Question Posted Saturday September 17 2005, 2:57 pm

First off, I'd like to state that both me and my cousin are 13 years of age.


Okay, here's the deal.. In the past I've had a lot of prolems with depression and low self esteem. My cousin and I were VERY close, and I loved always helping him with his problem. But one night when he came over my house to spend the night.. I got in a fight with him and my brother. Now I'd seen him like fourty times over the summer, so we were bound to get into a fight sometime.

But this time I finally broke down.. It was way to much, living with a pompous brother, a dad who's always right, and a mom who I can't tell when she'll be happy or right on the edge of blowing up. So over the course of two days, it went from I'm just a happy-go-lucky little cousin, to a emotionally unstable family member.

It had been planned that the three of us go over to my cousin's house the next day. Of course everything was a little tense between us the next morning, but we all went on about our business as if nothing had ever happened.

I stayed the night at his house that night, but brother decided he was ready to go home. For about three or four hours that day we just talked, and I cried most of the time, silent tears.

Now before I go on I'd just like to say I love my aunt more than anyone in the world at that point. She takes me in her arms and just holds me, telling that everything will be fine and that I'm pretty and smart and how she knows what it's like living with who I was living with..

The rest is history. But now my cousin feels like he can't talk to me anymore, and that kills me inside.. Talking to him about my own problems is hard enough, so talking to him about that is pretty much out of the question. I don't want to risk our relationship any further..

I'd love for some advice, but please don't be harsh.

hmm. thats a tough one. family always comes first. and of course its even harder when someone in your family is also your best friend. you just have to go to your cousin and tell him you are sorry .. and that you miss the days where you two were best friends and could tell eachother everything. if you dont want to talk to him about it .. just give him sometime. sweetheart he cant stay mad at you forever. but next time you see him just go up to him and give him a hug and tell him you love him.

well i think that you should talk to your cuzin.
Cuz if i know him which i think i do he has had the same problem, he just doesnt want to hurt your feelings about breaking down. He also doesnt want to overload you anymore. call him as soon as you get this message tell him everything and he will tell you everything. it will strenghthen your relstionship.

Hope this helps
