[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think sometimes siblings do and say things that they don't realize are hurtful/not acceptable/think are fine after years of the same behavior being tolerated. Then there is a moment were the person asserts themselves and cuts off contact.

The reality, a mature person would talk to the sibling, discuss, since in many cases the behavior was never intentional to harm, and frankly the person wasn't aware it was a problem. Might not even be aware that something they do is a problem for someone else.

Again, mature people talk these things out. Unfortunately, the person who is cutting ties WANTS no contact. They don't want to talk. Given that, there is nothing to do about it.[/quote]

I meant to add that that person who cuts off a sibling without a conversation is immature or emotionally unstable.[/quote]

There are plenty of reasons to not have a conversation particularly if yu[/quote]
