why is my head so mixed up about it all or am I just looking to far into it?

I really don't know what to think really!
I have eight brothers, my mother drinks morning, noon and night and dad died last year from cancer he only has 6 months from start to finish , we have all been dealing with it in different ways, me I haven't really had anything to do with my family since he died, upset's me far to much.
I have started speaking to 3 of my brother in the last 5 months!
This is were it gets interesting!! Wait for it I couldn't even make this stuff up!
One of my brother's 18 yrs fell in love with a 18yr old girl on MSN, the relationship carried on only on MSN for 5 months, then he went down to see her. But her dad (39) and my brother (18yrs) fell in love, okay it happened, my brother and the girl didn't hit it off face to face. She slept with someone on the rebound and fell PG, and is not with the father of her baby at all. My brother and his partner (her dad) are going strong.
But now one of my other brothers 19ys has fallen for THE girl who is PG, when he went to visit our brother, baby is due in less than 4 months! My brother (19yrs one) want to be there for her and the baby, and is madly I love with her!
so my brother (18yrs) is going to be a step granddad at 18 as well as a father in-law to his own brother!
And my 19 yr old brother is going to be a son-in-law to his brother!
I really don't know what to think at all, all I keep doing is laughing because I just don't know what to say or do!
No body in the family even knew my brother liked males also!
They are all living in the same house, and blissfully waiting the baby and playing happy family's!
I am happy for them all to of found love and they look very happy, why is my head so mixed up about it all or am I just looking to far into it?

it was ok till second brother got with brothers ex. the whole brother and dad came a a shock but the age thing was the biggest shocker.

it just gets on my wick that people on here go round looking to take pieces out of other people for no real cause.

thanks too those that are getting involved in a constructive way!

All these step and halves get very confusing don't they (-:

I have a 1/2 sister from my mums second marriage and 2 1/2 sisters from my real fathers second relationship.

My 1/2 sister form my mum and step father has 2 1/2 brothers and a 1/2 sister from my step fathers first marriage (who were my step siblings).

Great fun isn't it. My DP also has step and 1/2 siblings from his parents marriages as well.

I might keep laughing at my situation, but it isn't funny at all, this is something that is very TRUE and is happening to me and family at this very moment. Yes I have a big family I have explained how that came about, it's not very hard to find my family in the Derby paper, and my dad's story about his cancer and death was also in the paper too!

It amazes me on how rude some people can be, And how any one can make fun is beyond me!!
What if I did have a ninth brother and he die or something this person didn't even stop to think of that! There is many ways people can going about asking and many ways of putting that question across.
Dose no one make mistake's or slip of the keyboard and just post without checking?
Not to mention this person didn't look it to this very well at all as she would of seen that I mention having 8 brothers numerous times NOT 9, normal people would of been able to work out just from that, that it must of been a mistake's or slip of the keyboard, not to mention that the abbreviations do get confessing from time to time!
I tell you what I've never been so upset about a post to me or others before until last night, you post something hoping someone could give you some advice or just to talk it out with something, and then someone thoughtless comes along and make a mockery out of your life/family/REAL life story, how upestting and rude!
I hope I never come across this what can I say PERSON again, and I hope that this person never needs to talk about or ask advice on something in there life!

I hope the rude and uncaring people are very Satitfied with them self's!

sliverx2 I am so sorry you have a tough time in RL and on here, it must be hard for you . I know its not much but most of us on here are quite nice and genuinely want to help out and be a shoulder to cry on or give some frinedly advice or words of comfort. I will also be accused of being a troll becuase I have changed my nickname loads in the last couple weeks but I'm not I promise. With regard to your family I would reiterate what others have said just let them carry on and in time hopefully it wont be an issue for you

mummymelling · 04/09/2006 11:51

I THINK SOME MAJOR APOLOGIES ARE OWED HERE!!!! WHAT IN HELLS NAME MAKES ANYONE THINK THAT THEY ARE BETTER THAN ANYONE ELSE> WE ARE SUPPOSED TO BE HERE TO SUPPORT AND OFFER FRIENDSHIP >>>>>>

Seashells · 04/09/2006 12:10

I can't believe Mumsnet sometimes, how dare some of you make fun and quote old posts from someone like this, how dare you judge and put someone down, some posters on here seem to think they rule this site, you don't and it's not your job to play detective in this way! Honestly, I hope the posters in question make a well deserved apology to the op sharpish!

JennyLee · 04/09/2006 12:35

sivlerx on't let that person put you off mumsnet and stop you asking for advice as that would be bad and the person will have s elf satisfied feeling actually person maybe you shoudl say it was a misunderstanding and all make friends , I mean thats what we would say to our kids isn't it?

JennyLee · 04/09/2006 12:35

don't let the person put you off

desperate2bmum · 04/09/2006 13:16

silver this must be a really tough situation to be in, but it takes a bigger person to accept more than just the "norm". each to there own is what i say and aslong as your brothers are happy with there chosen partners i dont see any harm in it, it may not be your typical relationship but i can guarantee if they are as happy as you say they are..then they have a better relationship than a lot of "normal" couples.

some of the comments i have read on here are uncalled for and whilst others show support others choose to ridicule and all i will add to this is i bet confronted with this situation in real life they would not be quite as gobby!

this is called mumsnet not childsnet so lets try and be grown up about it and show some maturity and support. TUT TUT!!

WelshBoris · 04/09/2006 13:20

if you are genuine then im sorry sliver

the rest of you can tut tut all you fukcing want ive apologised to the OP

I remember sliverx from a while ago as well.

Ok, check the archives first if you think someone is a troll!!

anorak · 04/09/2006 19:30

I used to be Janstar before I was anorak.
Wickedstepmother is NomDePlume now.
Doormat = desperateScousewife

haven't seen chinchilla, honeybunnie or twink posting for a while (but that doesn't mean they're not here), everyone else still addicted I think

HRHQueenOfQuotes · 04/09/2006 19:47

seen as though you are all still having a good btch about that person* I thought I would bring it to your attention that nearly 3yrs ago I posted this another another thread

"If I was wrong, then I'm sorry, but having seen some sick and twisted stories from trolls on other websites (not just here) I'd rather err on the side of caution."

Now I shall tootle back off to my children as I'm apparently not welcome on this thread (or anyother that the OP is on....despite the fact I don't know her other posting ID which could make it tricky).
