Urgent advice needed!
Please kindly advise me on how to handle a current dilemma I am in. I have a half brother who lives in another country with his family. We do not get along at all and have had major disagreements over the years. We are also not in regular contact, infact the only times he calls me and we talk is when he wants to come to stay at my house with his wife and kids for holidays at the end of which we would all be emotionally drained from arguments, snide comments and criticisms from the wife about almost everything. These holidays have happened about four times in the course of 12 years. The whole family including me recently had a major falling out with him over a family matter which was never resolved. He announced yesterday on our family WhatsApp group that his family is relocating to the country where I live. While I wish them the best, I dont want to have anything to do with them. This evening I saw a missed call from him after not having spoken for months and I suspected he wanted to discuss coming to stay with me until they settle down which would be typical. I am not emotionally prepared for this. Please advise how best to handle this diplomatically without hurting feelings further.
