If someone suddenly withholds love from you and intentionally becomes distant, because of pressure from other family members whom she loves, isn't that like a punishment?

In religion, the definition of excommunication is:

"A form of censure by a person is excluded from the love of God. Excommunication has been used in various religions, notably Christianity, as a punishment."

In other words if someone suddenly stops loving you in order to appease others that love that person, isn't that a punishment?
