Why..

edited August 2010 in Vent
Does my brother always do this..?<br><br>When he was still married to his now ex-wife, he NEVER spent any time with me.. I ALWAYS asked him too.. and he NEVER would.. The closest I got to spending time with him was driving him to a meeting because his license was suspended.. He told me nearly SIX months ago that on his next days off we would go see a movie. Just me and him, for brother & sister time. It Never Happened.<br><br>Now that he is divorced and living here again, we talk a little bit more. I have become his unprofessional therapist lately. Then he just gets up and leaves at night and doesn't get home till morning.. Well the movie thing? STILL hasn't happened. Ive been home ALL day today.. Guess where my brother is at right now? That's right. THE MOVIES... WITH OUR TWO COUSINS!!! Both of which are my age.. His reason for taking them? "I didn't want to go by myself so I asked them to go with me so we could hang out since we haven't in a while" WHAT??? I was home ALL day! I could have gone! But NO! You ask THEM to go! So much for BROTHER-SISTER time!!!! UGH!!!!!

  • Have you explained your feelings to him? Maybe he just doesn't realize that you want to spend time with him, other than being his unprofessional therapist. <br><br>Other than that, sometimes brothers and/or sisters just need time apart from each other, even if the other one doesn't want that. I know I try to hang out with my brother, but he always prefers to do things with other people. My hope is that when he matures, and needs help that he will learn to trust me a little bit more.
