I Need Advice

My brother and I have not spoken to each other ever since I came out to my family which was like three years ago and it’s really bothering me. I mean should I say something first or do I just wait ?

I would suggest saying something if it is bothering you. He will either accept you or reject you, but at least you will know and won't be wondering any more. The hard part is how to get in contact again and how to word your reintroduction.

Send a card simply say love you my Brother, shall we meet for coffee?
Something similar. Include phone number?
It doesn't look as though he's going to make an effort to talk to you. Was he upset when you came out? If he was alot I would take it easy and slow trying to get him to talk. If he didn't seem to upset about it, I would say hey bro, it's been three years since we talked to each other did you know that? Or something like that, maybe things will get better.. But don't blame yourself if he doesn't talk, he's the one with the problem.

He was REALLYY upset. I don’t think I can say anything to him. @Footsugar123
Are you affaid to talk to him, or is it you don't want to make it worse for him, I would think three years should have gave him sometime to come to grips with it, If you guys don't try to talk to each other you will get even more distent until it will feel impossible to back to feeling like family, you don't have to talk about you being gay or anything of that sort, you can talk to him even if he doesn't reply, I think he will come around and talk back once he see you aren't going to bring up your sexuality. I wish you all the best in the world my friend I'm here if you want to talk sometime
Love
Rick
