Is it possible to avoid him completely? Or are you stuck at your parent's or someplace where you're forced into contact. If it's your house, do you need to have him over? Ever?
My brother and I have very little contact. Not because he's unpleasant. He's not. But we just don't have a lot in common other than our parents.
Sadly, I've never found a confrontation to be useful in my entire life. A polite discussion and firm laying of boundaries yes, a confrontation no. But maybe others have had different results.
