Blood is thicker than water


the ties that bind are stronger when it comes to family than people outside the family (e.g., friends, colleagues, strangers, etc.).
blood = family (though not necessarily related by blood, such as husband and wife)
water = non-family
1) “don’t trust anyone outside the family. blood is thicker than water. never forget that.”

2) a man wakes up from a coma to find all of his family around him. man: “where are all my friends? they said they would be there for me no matter what!”
nurse: “i suppose it’s true what they say: blood is thicker than water.”

3) “why did this man’s friends show up to his funeral, yet none of his family did?”
“well… i guess water is thicker than blood!” (the opposite can also be used for dramatic effect)
it’s suppose to mean family before anything else; however many people say the phrase and don’t really mean it since they would pick their friends over their sister/brother or cousins.
