How to deal with a sister that isn't talking?

I've got a sister who is 1 year older than me. She has decided she isn't talking to me. It sort of became obvious that she wasn't responding to messages etc. So I sent her a message "Have you decided you aren't talking to me?". I know it was read and there was no reply. A couple of weeks ago she told my 15yo daughter that she wasn't talking to me. Funnily enough my daughter knows my aunt is being childish.

My mum lives in a granny flat behind my sisters. She is going to have her 80th soon and it will be at my sisters place. I'm thinking that if she isn't going to talk to me it would be very awkward and perhaps I won't go......

The party is for your mother--of course you should go.

Whatever her problem is, it's HER problem. NOT yours.!
I hate when family play stupid games rather than say what's on their mind!
So bloody exhausting feeling like you're walking on eggshells anytime you meet !

@WhatShallIcallyou: yep I would go over there soon and just play dumb or like your concerned like "hey I have been trying to trying to reach you and no one answered, IS everything ok with mom? Your phone? You feeling ok? I thought something really serious was going on etc. "

@WhatShallIcallyou: or better yet go there early to visit mom and talk to her instead. Go buy something to give to mom so she HAS To let you stay a bit.

Awkward or not, don't stay away on your mother's birthday. You must have some idea why your sister is not talking to you. Work it out if you can. If not, just find a way to visit on your mom's birthday anyway. You can come early and leave early.

I agree with Peekatyou - the party is for your mother, you should be there. don't let your sister's childish behaviour disrupt what would otherwise be a family celebration of your mother's mileston
Go to the party! That's your mother. You can't control your sister's moods or maturity level
Mingle with the other guests.

If you don't know why she isn't talking to you possibly even if you do. Mail her a letter, she might read it and gear everything you want to say!

Don't miss out because of someone else, your mom will not be around forever and you'd feel bad that you missed it.

Have you talked to her recently? Real talk

About 4 months ago. I tried to sit down and talk to her.... and her kids called her away.... then she had to go and drop kids at sport or something.

I think you should go visit her and try to solve this problem together as brother and sister
