Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

Yeah, its not like we're not wanting to be make up, we just don’t seem to be wired that way

you gotta find an activity to do together. Something that takes the stress off and lets things fall out naturally.

When my sisters and I watched my mother and her sister fight bitterly when their mum was dying we resolved to never grow so estranged.

It's not always been comfortable, but the biggest thing has just been to make sure we do things together. For us it's cooking days where we teach recipes, board game days, sports practice, language practice, minding each other's kids (mostly childless me hanging out with them and taking the stress off a bit). That sort of thing

I hope you can find something to lower the barrier with your bro :)
