Question?

If I’m the only one reaching out to certain family and friends; and sometimes get no response; and the majority of the time I don’t hear from them unless I reach out;

Should I stop? I try. I always check in.

Especially with one family member in particular I thought I was “close” too. And she ignores and doesn’t even respond.

Do I just stop? I don’t feel it should only be my responsibility to keep in contact.

Good point. I’ve tried numerous times now and no response. I’m trying. There comes a point when you just have to stop.

thank you for that worst thing about it is ive done nothing wrong he just lives in a different world sadly.

They’re probably feeling taxed. Maybe wait and call and talk about everything but your health. It ducks to be ill people even family drop you.
