Some of my family members don't speak to other ones. How can I navigate this if I'm on good terms with both parties?

I would try to educate both of them on the right and wrong done intentionally and unintentionally by both parties and have them introspect and reflect on what they could do subsequently to ensure that they are not being part of the problem.

Be yourself and talk to whomever you want to. If you are questioned by any of those family members simply say that there is no issue between you and that particular family member so thats why you just speak to all of them.

it happens mostly in family that you have a good relation with both haters and some time you feel so hopeless in between both of them.According to me you should not leave one member for other.You have to maintain a balance in your relation.Best thing you can do that do not discuss first member matters in front of second member ..

Keep conversations neutral, light-hearted, and about the family member you're currently with. Knowing how to deflect certain comments help as well. I.E. Your grandmother attended your aunt's wedding, but isn't too happy about who she married. Focus the attention of the conversation onto how much fun the wedding instead.

Try making your business project, and let them get involved indirectly. One of them must send or receive things you need to do business. Don't let them get in touch directly, rather one of them sending to you and you send to the other. Whatever it is, but that's the idea, making both getting into working together seamlessly.

Sometimes it's just the way it is, but you could maybe suggest that it upsets you, and try to get to the bottom of why they don't talk, and if there is a way of you helping them.

Be loyal to both. Don't share anything that goes on in one household to the other because that results in more bad blood.

Establish yourself as Sweden. If they ask for your opinions on the other party, don't give one. Remain diligent, neutral, and calm.

That's always difficult. You can't choose who your family is and I can imagine you feel bad that you can't really talk to them like you might want to.

Remain neutral. Do not comment on anything hostile from one party toward another.
