my girlfriends ex is my brother.******

 

My girlfriend broke up with me for the second time around five months ago. i was shocked as i couldn't take it upon myself and that too over the phone. i was waiting to meet her for the past 4months and just when you are missing someone so much they come up with such news. i was shattered, i cried and tried to convince her but she didn't agree as she was like she sees no future and has no feelings left. she was like we can be friends if i wanted.

 

During this period of friendship she used to call me just as a friend. i stuck coz i was hoping that this could change. i agreed. few weeks passes by and slowly she started to cut contact by calling me once in a day then once in 3 days to eventually cutting off all contacts. i stalked her like nothing but it was going anywhere in the meanwhile she even saw a guy who her parents had set up for marriage as it was an arrange marriage. but somehow nothing came of it as the guys family had some issues.

 

all this while it had been two months since i spoke to her. i prayed for her to come in my life as she was my first love and i was actually her second. after two month i recieve a text from her. i was confused as i had faced enough. somehow after 10 days i replied and we started speaking and that too once in a day at night. after a couple of days are communication increased as she used to tell me what all had happened all this while. i was recovering and believing and she was getting interested then out of nowhere her ex messages her afer 2 years and she asks me what to do. i was broken again as i had no answers. coz i knew no matter what she would speak to him as she had done in the past.

 

her ex was so desperate to get her back that i was losing it. i used to cry at night and i couldnt even focus on my work. i was shocked coz this was the same person who a couple of days ago called me in the middle of night crying that she wasn't feeling and i consollled her at 4 am in the morning and spoke to her for an hour.

and within 24 hrs this person changed and would again cut all contacts.

 

after two days when i called her she was like her ex wants to marry her and shes confused. so now its a triangle where two brothers are fighting for one girl. and my brother doesnt know that i was with her.

 

she stops calling me they become friends again on instagram their love life reignites and im in the middle of all this thinking what to do should i wait or move on? as this was only causing me pain. i had temporary hapiness and nothing else.

only coz i love her so much that whenever she needs me im there but now when i feel low and want to talk to her i cant.

Which do you value more? A relationship with your own brother, or with a girl who has dumped you?

 

Marriages have a 50% chance of ending in happy ever after these days. Relationships which are not yet marriages, have much less than that. Relationships with people who've dumped you, almost zero chance of working out.

 

Stop all contact with her. Tell your brother the whole truth and cherish that family relationship. He will be your brother for life, whereas chances are you won't even remember her face in 5 years time. Don't let a girl who dumped you be the cause of a huge family rift! Cos that's what this will be, if you don't prioritise!

Posted

Grow up. This isn't the end of the world.

 

Cut the needy act. You want her but she's not a need.

 

She's shown you she isn't relationship material. Move on and block all forms of contact.

 

Thate only one keeping you in this is you

Thank you for your reply.

My brother wants to marry her and I’m scared if I tell him he’ll and my family won’t forgive me ever plus whenever He left her or she left as was the case twice I consoled her in which case I became too attached and emotionally connected to her. Plus if they get married I won’t be able to take it but she’s very much ok with marrying him and he’s eager to be with her after speaking to her after 2 years.

 

But coz my memories are too fresh I’m scared what would happen if she comes. My brother doesn’t live with me in this house. It is in the same city but not with me.

 

I’m scared as she was my first love and I’m not sure if she calls what to do as she only wants me to be her friend and talk to me if he hurts him coz she’s aware I’ll be there.

I would tell your brother. Do you want him to get serious with a woman who is not open about her relationship with his own brother?

 

 

But do it out of love for your brother, not out of a desire to break them up. That's kind of a serious thing not to know about, and I hope he is aware of it.

Would you prefer to spend every Thanksgiving sitting around the table with a fake smile on your face, lying to cover up your secret? That is no way to live. Eventually it will come out anyway, sooner or later. You should tell him in a controlled manner before they get married rather than him figuring out in 10 years when they have 3 kids.

Yes it’s true that eventually everything comes to the notice but there’s only one thing that stops me from telling my brother is that if I tell him a girl image and respect would be gone for a toss. That’s the last thing I want coz for me a woman’s respect is my utmost priority even if it’s st the expense of my loss.

 

I’ve been involved too so I know if she doesn’t marry him then for her to get married to someone else and for her family it won’t be a nice thing so for all that I’m taking a step back.

 

Should I call her and tell her that it’s not right what’s happening. she’s ok with me around the family as I won’t be living under the same roof. Should I call her to tell her that never should you contact me again coz if they get married I can never accept it.

You're concerned about earning respect from a woman who has already disrespected you so badly, multiple times? Even if it causes your brother (and by extension her) to never speak to you again? Because that is a distinct possibility, if you let them go ahead with the wedding, and he finds out in 5 years when they have 3 kids together.

 

Should I call her and tell her that it’s not right what’s happening. she’s ok with me around the family as I won’t be living under the same roof. Should I call her to tell her that never should you contact me again coz if they get married I can never accept it.

Your priorities are all messed up. You will seriously create a huge family rift between you and your brother, over a woman who has dumped you TWICE. Dude, you've got rocks in your head. You need to go and see your brother IN PERSON and explain everything. Maybe he will be angry but in time he will get over it. Whereas if you don't tell him, you'll likely lose him forever one day.

 

Forget about her. Think of your family.

Thank you so much for your reply

I know If I tell him he’ll never talk to me as there was always a sense of competition since we were young. Secondly, since three days there things are moving in the right direction and I’m the one whom she left out. I often feel I should call her either to talk her as to why she stopped talking to me when he came back.

I don’t know why but whenever he leaves as in the first instance she came to me as I was her friend and then we got attached then later when she left me coz of him she went back to him. Then on the second instance when he left her she again contacted as I was head over heels in love and was desperately trying to get her. Then somehow it worked but then again when he returned she left me.

 

I really want to know is it worth to explain her all this and get an explanation from her.

After all that you're still questioning about what you should do? Are you kidding me. This girl sounds like an emotional wreck. She's hopping from guy to guy while still maintaining contact with you but the next second she goes cold. My question is.. WHY ARE YOU STILL PUTTING UP WITH THIS? Jees if you were my friend and you told me this I would smack you until you wake up lol. No you do not contact her and tell her how you feel. You've told her your feelings and yet she still wants to be only friends with you. If she knows that you still like her and she continues to ask you for advice and even told you that she might consider marrying your brother.. this girl is not worth your time. Hell, this is also very unfair to your brother. Do yourself a big favor and move on and forget about this girl and get away from this mess...

Posted

She knows you want her bad, she told you she can only offer friendship...she means it.

 

 

If I were you I would tell your brother. He needs to know you were with her and how you feel about her. If he was in this situation wouldn't you want to know?

Posted

She probably wouldn't care if you did approach her.

 

 

You're trying to get her back and it is obvious. Stop. She's not worth it, and you're being spineless.

You are right but at night I’m unable to sleep I keep thinking about her and when I wake up it’s the same thing. I tried everything but I’m scared if they get married I’ll have to leave the city rather than see her with someone .

 

I really feel like calling her and telling her that you are one user and a gold digger.

leave the city? Your family and your brother are going to wonder why you are not at their wedding, or at family functions, or at the birth of their first child or holiday celebrations, etc. What are you going to do then? help your brother out and warn him.

You got with your brothers ex and now you're upset she decided to go back to him? Honestly I only think you have yourself to blame here.

 

You never should have got involved because there was always a chance this would happen.

I am sorry for your sadness and suffering.

This is a very sad situation, but you kinda brought it to yourself right?

Why would you date your brother's girlfriend?

 

 

Also, your brother left her for 2 years and now he remembers to marry her?

 

Is she really the love of his life and he just discovered that after 2 years?

 

Would he really care if he knows you love her too? I mean this man left the girl for 2 years. I doubt he cried like you during that time, maybe he is marrying her out of convenience, maybe she is a good catch financially speaking, maybe he won't be destroyed and cry like you if he knows you had a relationship with her. But I feel like even if he decides to leave her, he won't be the same brother you knew before. Some things can't be mend.

 

 

Anyway, you need to leave the city anyway. Not because your brother is going to marry her, it is because you need to change the scenery.

 

You are going insane, you think this is the only girl for you!

 

No, she is not!

 

She is just a girl that you currently love, but comes a time where you will forget and move on. Just give yourself time

 

Go start dating other girls. I am not telling you to lie to these girls, just try to have some fun outside of this city.

 

Remember, she is only in your mind because your mind wants her to be there.

Your mind is playing tricks on you, he knows you are destined to something bigger and he wants to distract you from doing that, because he doesn't like to work hard, so he is throwing these obstacles in front of you.

 

Think about it, why are you crying at night over some girl while she is having fun with your brother?

 

Does this seem logical to you?

 

It has to be a trick!

It has to be a lie!

 

Leave the city and move on. I bet they are not going through this marriage and even if they went on with marriage, they will get divorced anyway but you won't care because by that time you would have moved on!

 

So force your brain to move on!

You are right that it was wrong in the first place but coz we were friends earlier too somethinh was so common that we both were enjoying each other’s company and time then we fell in love as we were heads over heel over each other.

I know she cares for me as a friend but that’s it. I wasn’t the only one involved we both liked each other and if she didn’t think it was right she wouldn’t have been with me again for the second time for an year and this time in a living relationship.

How long was she with your brother initially?

 

 

How long were you with her?

 

 

When is the wedding date?

Hopefully you were with her AFTER she broke up with your brother. If she cheated on him with you, then I can understand why your brother might never speak to you again. Now, because blood is thicker then water, you have to tell your brother that you were with his FI while they were apart. When he sees her in that light -- someone who would betray him with his own brother -- he may dump her. That doesn't mean you can go out with her again. You have to stand by your brother & recognize that this girl is bad news. Try telling your parents first if you need emotional support before you disclose the facts to your brother. You do need to beg your brother's forgiveness because your choice to take up with his EX is a pretty rotten thing to do to him. Where is your loyalty?

Yes you are right that he doesn’t know I dated her. But I feel I’m becoming the culprit as he’s my first cousin and everyone would blame me. I always told her that we were in this together and if ever it came out in public I’ll take it personally upon myself rather than let her take it.

 

All coz of that I feel really bad that she did all this. I have so doubt and insecurities issues that I’m not sure if ever I need her she’ll be there. I feel so bad that I’m not sure if ever I call her she’ll answer

Agreed I’m wrong I broke his trust.

Now when I’m trying to heal myself she tells me that she has asked my brother to wait as he left her when she begged him a couple of years ago. Now she’s blaming me that coz of me she’s into double thoughts of marrying him as that’s what she told me today. Earlier my brother had no intention and now when he’s back she’s blaming me as if I was alone and forced her to be with me.

 

Then she’s like she’s not spoken to him since two days and just wants me to be her friend and when I say anything she’s like you are immature that you couldn’t get over me as she has given me more than 5 months to get over her. Now she regrets being with me. She wants to be friends but nothing more but I can’t get how can someone ask me or force me to get over them in 5 months so that I don’t force and talk if I want to just like friends do

Please help me understand her thinking

Cut things off with her and tell your brother the truth. He deserves to know the truth.

Why have you not told your family?

Why do you continue to talk to her?

 

 

How long did you date her? How serious was it?
