Your initial plan of what you wanted to text, though, is a very critical text in that last part. I wonder if you have a tendency to interject criticism under the guise of love, and that rubs the people around you the wrong way. It's a kind of "I love you, but . . ." communication that could be a turn off, particularly if it is something that you might do regularly. (I am not making an accusation; I have no idea how you usually communicate with your family members. Just something to perhaps consider if it is relevant.) It feels like very conditional love, and it sort of seems like they have started conditioning their love back at you maybe? I don't know. But generally there is a pattern of communication issues over time that leads to these kinds of estrangement - and often both sides of the estrangement hold partial responsibility. Sometimes it takes some distance to sort of reset a relationship.
