UPDATE - It was a complete misunderstanding.
My brother was out with friends and did not see my text message until he got home late at night.
My cousins, my brother and I will be having dinner together in August.
I have an unstable relationship with my younger brother Daniel.
(My "friendships" and interpersonal relationships have been unstable for most of my relatively short life).
This morning, I went inside my father's house for the first time in 3 months so that I could choose books that I intend to donate to my local library
(My mother and father were not home)
My brother Daniel apologized for being unable to help me put my books into boxes....and then he went to serve at his church.
After Daniel returned from church, he did NOT ask me if I needed help, and he did NOT offer to help me. Daniel went inside his room and shut his door.
(This sort of behavior is very typical of my younger brother Daniel)
Daniel is very actively involved in his church, and he is very kind to his church friends....BUT he is a very different person when he is with family members.
Daniel never offers to help any of our family members. He never does any chores around the house. He is very very moody when he is at home.
My mother pays Daniel's credit card bills and his law school loans.
Am I painting a clear enough picture?
Fast forward to 6:30 this evening:
Two of my cousins and I made plans to have dinner together in August.
Although my cousins did not invite my brother, I took the initiative to invite my brother so that all 4 of us (my cousins, my brother and I) could have dinner together.
I sent my brother a text message asking him if he was going to be free for dinner on August 4th.
THREE hours later, my brother still has NOT bothered to respond to my text message.....
I really really dislike being ignored by people.....
Please pray for me....and please pray for Daniel too.
Thank you
