Relationship with BILs

Does anyone here have a good relationship with their BIL?

Growing up I've (F 25) always wanted a brother and I kind of imagined that I would have a good relationship with my future BILs but I've accepted that's never going to happen.

My BIL from my husband's side (husband's brother) literally ignores me every time we see each other. I used to make an effort to say hi and ask him about his life. But now I've just decided to not even acknowledge him. My husband noticed a few days ago and asked me if his brother greeted me. I told him no and he never really has.

My BIL from my side (my sister's husband) is polite but every time we talk he tries to prove me wrong. I've also decided to not really give my opinion when he's around.

So I just wanted to know what's everyone's experience. I honestly don't care but just wondered because my first Mother's Day was an eye opener. from that day on I've decided to not even try to have a relationship with them.
