Ask Amy: I want to reconnect with my brother but he doesn’t seem interested

Advice from Amy Dickinson.

After my mother abruptly left town to be with another man, my brother and I were left to clean up the mess, literally and figuratively.

I have asked him if he doesn’t want a relationship, and he always says he does, but that he is just busy.However, I see him and his wife interacting with our mutual friends on social media. I do not like how these relationships feel one-sided. I especially feel hurt when mutual friends say that they’ve talked with them recently.

I think you should stop asking for or expecting anything more than you’re getting from them – an occasional five minutes here or there. You are thinking about walking away from the relationship, but I suggest that you only walk away from your expectations. You want to be closer. He doesn’t. This is a painful situation that you will have to work hard to accept. If you do less, he might do more – but there is no guarantee.

Have we become so uncaring that everyone just takes the “big” stalls, instead of caring about those of us who really need them?I’m sorry you experience this frustration. These larger stalls are installed in every public bathroom to accommodate the legitimate needs of disabled people who need more room and possibly grab bars to use the facility.
