Is it normal that i barely talk to my older brother?

So my older brother recently moved out with his girlfriend about 5-6 months ago and we have barely talked or seen each other. He hasn't moved away far (like a 10 minute drive) and so I'd assume we'd be seeing each other more but we haven't which is weird. I understand that he is busy with his job and his girlfriend and all but I'd assume that I'd hear and see more from him. I think his reasoning is because his girlfriend and my mom don't like each other and there's a lot of tension between the three of them (i.e. my mom, my bro's gf and my bro) and I feel like she keeps him from us. Granted there is a lot of drama and history behind this and I won't get into it lol. It just makes me sad because I see a lot of people who have siblings with gf's/bf's who are super involved in the family but then I take a look at my family and all I see is drama and tension.

    Well give him a call and see how the convo goes. You won’t know the real reason for the distance between you too until you talk to him. It won’t hurt to call and ask how he has been.
