[quote=Anonymous]My cousin is from a dysfunctional family but honestly she is a ton of work (as a fully grown adult). she has been trying to have a relationship with me for a couple of years, but having a phone conversation with her is really stressful and unpleasant for me. I’m not a naturally outgoing personality so it’s hard for me to fill all the awkward silences and come up with topics of conversation that are acceptable to her. I tend to ask questions when I’m having trouble with conversations, generally, but with her if she doesn’t like my questions I just get a one word answer and then an awkward silence. I have to psyche myself up for periodically calling her. It’s really hard to be a support for someone like that. [/quote]
