writes:I'm really upset. I used to be really close with my younger brother when we lived together with my dad, but now he is holding a grudge because of an argument i had with my mum and Grandmother last week. My brother lives with my mum now, and i live with our Grandparents, ( it's a long story ) , so obviously, he would have seen that she was upset, and he decided to never speak to me again. He has also told my mum not to let me go to their house ever again, and it looks like he has removed me as a friend on facebook and blocked me, as he isn't on my friend's list now, and i can't find his page when i type his name in the search box. When i called their house earlier this week to speak to my mum, my brother answered and said he wasn't in, and he was very abrupt with me and put the phone down without saying goodbye. He is 24, and i am 27. I think this is really childish and i don't think it should carry on. Everything is ok with my mum, my Grandmother and I , so why is my brother being like this ?. My parents won't tell him he is wrong for doing this either. I'm thinking of looking for my own flat this year to get away from all of them. It's getting on my nerves. Do oyu think he will ever snap out of this and what should i do in the meantime ?.

You only mention it was an argument. Whatever it was has cut very deep and he is not agreeing with your side of it. Whatever it was has upset him. Only he can tell you just what that is. Your information is too vague. Life is too short and it does need sorting out with him personally.

 Your brother sounds very hurt and it seems his anger is directed at you.
If you have done anything to upset him, apologise because it shows you recognise his feelings and you dont want to lose his relations.
The rest is ultimately upto him but the way he is behaving it seems to me he's been hurt really bad by you.
He is still your brother and if he refuses to talk to you, you can always write him a letter explaining that you wish the family feuds had not got in the way of your relationship.
It may get things moving for the better if he knows your true feelings towards the matter.
He's your brother, he still loves you. There is no doubt about that.
The amount of times i came to logger heads with my brother... he is stubborn also... but persistance and a little time... knocks sense into siblings!
Dont give up on him.
& Goodluck!
