Just wondering if it is normal to not speak to particular family members or relatives. One of my coworkers mentioned how he doesn't talk to him mom anymore after many disagreements and arguing. He just decided he didn't need it and doesn't talk to her. Is there anyone if your family or relatives that you do not talk to?

Most of them because we don't live in the same country.

Some cousins, yeah because we live far from each other. I have some childhood cousins I keep in touch until now though. I visit them whenever I like.

I barely talk with any of my relatives or my family. Though I guess I still talk to them every now and then.

I don't talk to most of my extended family. I am also pretty distant with my regular family.

I'd say it's completely normal, I only really talk a few close family members often.

i.e. Mom, Dad, Sister, first cousins etc.

My extended family is huge, but they're spread out all over the world and none of them live where I do, and it's an extremely rare occasion when I get to see them in person unfortunately.

I do almost only talk to my family and relatives when they ask me something. I have best relations to my grandparents and worst with my father.

Not really, if they want to engage in a conversation then so be it.

Meh, I talk to them though I really don't want to. If I din't my parents would go back to calling me a brat and constantly telling what an anti-social person I am.

I hate it when they do that, so I just say 'Hello' when they're here and 'Bye' when they leave.

Sometimes I say more than those 2 words because they seem interested in a conversation with me. Not really interested in a conversation with them though.

They are just blood and people you spent your childhood with. If you find them repulsive or just don't get along when you are older then I don't see a reason to hold on just because blood.

My younger brother is an annoying prick that always fight with me. Only when one occasion when he really piss me off, I asked for a street brawl to end the whole heated tension between us, and my mother intervened. We don't talk ever since.

He does not even respect me as a brother anymore and become more 'deviant' in the family. He picked up smoking and still underaged by the way, and now is hated by my parents. I was a good role model as a brother, trust me, I even told him to quit smoking before our parents found out. Now he failed his national exams and cannot go further studying.

It's kind of hard to keep up with all 800 family members.
