can someone tell me honestly if i can gain respect back ?

my cousin from india came all the way to visit me for five days. the very first thing he asked me was what i'm doing that i am busy all the time. when i told him everything, he looked at me and was able to tell i was making excuses. i guess in a way it made me realize i was hurting his feelings. he was expecting to see me in india with my sister last year but i never came. when he called me, i told him i got busy and his reply was "omg! eveyone is busy." a week after they left, i sent him a picture from his visit and he replied "we miss the fun and action we had there." then i wrote to him for india's independence day and he replied within two minutes then i called him for raksha bandhan. he told me i can write to him once twice a month. when i met him during his visit to new york last year, he told me the more continous time i spend with family, the more i'm going to remember them. now i'm starting to remember them. as an honest opinion, since i remembered him, do u think he still mad at me for making excuses about being busy? i wrote to him on his personal email instead of his office email in rgds to the new delhi bombs and didnt hear back from them. is there a way i can gain respect from him? i feel horrible. despite that, when my sister went to india, he bought me a jewelry box, bangles, a blanket, and a shawl. in new york, he bought me an indian style purse along with artificial jewelry. i guess he just wanted me to remember him. i dont know what i can do to show my cousin i'm remembering him. would an email once a month help? i dont want him to think he's getting a lot of email from me. he told me his comapny doesnt mind emails because he told me sending him emails is like writing him a letter. please send me honest feedback. to tell you the truth, all of my cousins in india are married and have kids of their own and i never had the chance to attend any of their weddings. when i started college, my dad's brother's daughter was getting married and my dad told me i had to go to the wedding. i had a horrible time. everyone ignored me, nor did anyone talk to me and they left me out in all of the cousin get-togethers. i guess that showed me how to be rude to others. please send me ur honest opinion. chanvces are i might write to him for diwali this year then write to him once a month or so on his office email. as it made me realize that he came all the way from india and he had to take time off and had to go through a lot of trouble to come visit me, i guess in a way he deserves a lot more respect. i've gotten complaints from him in the past that i stopped writing and calling.

1. This is easy, just mark your calendar with every two weeks to write to him at least once. Always respond to his emails promptly and feel free to share what goes around, gossip is what Indians love, am half-indian too and am able to stay in good contact with my cousins and family back home. Good luck!
