Effusive or not, it's rude of them not to be basically welcoming or cordial. My BIL and wife are like that and they are selfish, jealous alcoholics. There is no need for me to go out of my way for them.
I agree with this post. It's martyr-like to continue going out of your way to try to connect with people who make it clear they don't care. You're not doing anyone any favors if you tolerate rudeness.
