My brother has been staying in hostel from class 6th,at that time I was in class 5th.Now he is doing architecture 2nd year and I have completed 12th class this year.Its been so long that we both had a good time with each other.When ever he comes home from hostel,he either talks to me or sometimes he doesn't even talk.I feel so bad that even after having a brother I don't feel his presence.What shall i do to reduce this relationship gap?

Welcome to My Lot. I think that you could till your brother that he is important to you. You might be able to share some trips to the movies with him. You could go out for a day somewhere that you two went to when you were children. Then you could talk about the memories. I suggest that you ask him how his studies are going. Good luck.

I guess the trip down the memory lane could work. If you can't reach out to him now, try seeking interest from your past together. Most of the time, my brother and I would talk about our funny or immature stories back when we were kids and have a good laugh at it :)

Hello shona. I suggest you to always reach out to your brother first. Don't wait for him to come to you. Go and talk to him always. Communication is a main ingredient of a healthy relationship. I hope the gap between you and your brother will disappear soon.
