Overview
Just because the last family gathering you went to wasn't exactly a barrel of laughs doesn't mean that the next one can't be more enjoyable. Keep an open mind and make more of an effort to spend time with relatives as soon as you can -- there are changes going on that you will want to weigh in on. Your social circle might feel more like your family right now, but that doesn't mean you don't still have responsibilities to the people whom you're related to.
