I'm just wondering if it's normal to be closer to one parent more than the other?

I talk to my mom a lot and I feel confident to tell her things. I talk to my dad but sometimes I feel bad because I don't talk to him as much as my mom.

I want to try getting closer to my dad but now it's hard because I never talked to him from the beginning.

Do you feel that you're closer to one of your parents?

Both mine have passed but i was closer to my dad...he was open minded and had a revolutionary vibe to him, he was fearless and always spoke out against injustice and was very kind...❤️. He taught me to be brave, whereas my mother taught me to be fearful

Dad: Aries

Mum: Capricorn

Wanting something that was never established is never going to happen. You can cultivate a better relationship sure but it's never going to be the sort of thing you imagined.

Also shout out to the kids who never had either.

I dont consider myself close to either of my parents. They are still married and still in my life and I see my dad everyday but we dont really talk much. I don't know if it's cause I'm the youngest of 5 and they kind of stopped trying by the time I came along or what but yeah. I know my dad treats me with kid gloves compared to my older sisters but we still don't talk a lot. And my mom talks to my older sisters way more than she talks to me. She has always been closer to the 3 oldest than she has been to me and my other sister.

Mom: Scorpio

Dad: Leo
