i feel you. but this is the kind of thing where one side has to make the first move, and usually that is me or you and not the other side, because if we wait for the others to make the move then nothing will happen. so it's a question of how important that interaction is to us. i am saying this because people often feel regret for not interacting with their family more. and if someone has that feeling then the only way to fix it is to engage, regardless of what the other side is doing. that said, when i went through a difficult time i tried talking to my dad about it, and when he came back complaining about some other issue i decided that i didn't need more arguing and stopped talking to him. not that i would refuse talking, but if all i get is complaints then it's not worth it.
