So does anyone else find this odd? I’ve been with my partner a year. And I haven’t met his brother. He told me a story of how they randomly stopped speakin and don’t even have each other on any social media anymore and how they where really really close etc. my boyfriend told me he is nearly sure his brother slept with his ex wife. (My boyfriend and his ex wife have been split for 3 years) he told me how they used to go out all the time and there was one time he seen a picture of his ex’s boobs in his brothers phone. So he said she obviously sent the brother that. But then I’m over thinking that the reason that they don’t speak is something to do with my boyfriend sleeping with his brothers girlfriend? He maybe done it on badness if he thinks he was with his ex wife. Aibu to overthink this? Aibu

Your boyfriend doesn't speak to his brother, who he used to be close to. Your boyfriend thinks his brother may have slept with the bf's ex-wife. You are now wondering if your bf may have slept with his brother's girlfriend despite not having any evidence of this? I think you should split up.

It would mean he’s a scumbag? If he can sleep with his own flesh and bloods girlfriend. And I wouldn’t wanna be with someone like that

Without knowing the actual circumstances of how they may have ended up in bed I personally wouldn't judge but its up to you. You know him, I don't.

I think the ops bf should run. Why would she even think that, given whst he's said about the brother. His comment on the brothers of is that she was nice...so the op assums they were shagging

I know I can’t believe girls saying what does it matter. It matters cause I don’t want to go with a scumbag Even if it was a million years before me 🤣

People are saying it doesn’t matter as you’ve given no evidence for why you think that’s what happened. It’s like you’re just making a story up.

Your boyfriends brother maybe slept with your boyfriends now ex wife and you think that your boyfriend slept with his brothers girlfriend as retaliation?

Sounds exciting!

Doof Doof Doof!!!

@erinS93 so you are in a relationship with a guy who is estranged from his brother - it happens - drama.

Your boyfriend thinks his brother slept with his ex wife - drama.

Your boyfriend thinks his ex wife sent his brother a picture of her boobs - drama.

You think your boyfriend slept with his brothers ex girlfriend in retaliation maybe, tit (excuse the pun) for tat - drama.

You don’t know whether you are overthinking it.

You think your boyfriend is a scum bag. Excuse me if I have missed anything out.

My advice, stop overthinking it. Chuck him! Walk away. No drama!

Ok you need to explain why you think this, as it appears you’ve just imagined a random scenario and went with it,

If you don’t trust him , should you be together? Doesn’t sound like a very open and honest relationship
