[quote=Anonymous]Closeness needs to come from both sides to happen. And you can not force him to lean into that. Of course this may make you feel sad. That seems like an appropriate way to feel. But it does not mean he OWES you the type of relationship you want. So, take a few steps back. Ease off on the communicating with him entirely necessary. While doing that, fill your life with other relationships. If you are able, spend time together in person with your brother. That may work better than daily support texts/calls. I'd also say, get to know his girlfriend. Being her friend can go a long way towards a healthy relationship with your brother long term. [/quote]
