I care about my brother a lot but it's hard to talk to him, because like everyone else in my little family he doesn't really ask how I am doing

He just wants to talk about himself.

I know that's literally all I do on here, but it's because I don't really irl.

And it kinda hurts that my dad never asked, my mum doesn't either, and my brother doesn't. I always made an effort to listen to them.

But THAT'S WHY the connection is not strong
