Description
Booth: I'm sorry that you had to go through it again. Watching your family drive off. You know. Leave you behind. I'm sorry.
Bones: My father is, is...
Booth: He's your dad. And he loves you.
Bones: You know, I'm just, I'm just one of those people who doesn't get to be in a family. That's ...
Booth: Listen, Bones. Hey, there's more than one kind of family.
From the TV show Bones, Season 2 Episode 11 "Judas on a Pole"
***
There is more than one kind of family.
I use to describe my family as just my biological parents and sibling, but the older I have become, I have realised that family for me shouldn't be so strictly defined.
My friends are my family. They enrich my life so much and they are always there when I need them.
And my former host family in Japan, I call them family too. I even called them my Japanese mum, dad and little sis too. One day when I was having some issues, my Japanese dad gathered the family around and said (translated from Japanese): "I know that you are here for study but when you are here with us, you are our daughter".
And I can't forget my dA family too
Family is everywhere

Well, communication is a two-way street, so maybe the other people is not a very good communicator. Don't think it is just you. It could be any combination of factors.
And personally, I am not a very good conversationalist, but I'm getting better. The more you try, the better it gets

I have no really close connection to my parents and friendships with me were mostly only fleetingly
