should i reach out to my cousin?
My cousin cut off my whole family, but stayed in contact with me for a long time. My family was extremely toxic to her and I. I was very neglected. she allowed me to stay with her when i was unsafe at home, and she was the closest and best family member i have. last year, she cut me off too. I asked why and she said she doesn’t hate me and it wasn’t anything I did, but it was because she wants to stay away from my family. recently i moved out and i cut off my family finally. My cousin and I used to be so close and had a great bond and i miss her. We are both adults living our own lives now, but i keep thinking about reaching out. i keep thinking about letting her know that i got away. i just want to have my cousin back. i don’t know what the right thing to do is.
