Closer to me emotionally, but more committed to his family's priorities in day-to-day life. I'm trying to make myself a part of that family so it isn't an issue. And I'm super close to my family, but would love to have a relationship just as great with his if they would let me. We're working on it!

At first I thought this was a ridiculous question, because she's known her family for her entire life and is very close with them, and she's only known me for about four years at the most... But she's told me many times that she is the most free-spirited of her family, so I feel like in certain aspects she is able to be more herself with me than her family. As we get married and grow together, she will feel closer to me, but for now it's just a different kind of relationship.

Closer to her family, but that's the way it should be (especially with her daughter). I don't ever want to be put above them. That'd be wrong. Just want to be the romantic love in her life <3

I wod say he is more closer to his family
We are extremely close, i believe we are soulmates. However she is very close to her family having a strong and tight bond with them.
We are both closer to our family as we should be but everyday we grow closer together.
