Me and my boyfriend have been best friends for more than 10 years and started dating about 8 months ago. I introduced him to my sister not long after we started dating and now they hang out ALL the time nearly every night and always on the phone too each other it makes me feel so inadequate. I love this man more than anything and I don't understand why my sister would take it further, (she has told him how much she likes him) I just don't know whether or not to trust them or if I'm over reacting by not trusting them. I would be completely heartbroken if he left me for her but I cant help feeling like it will happen, I just don't know when. Do any of you think its inappropriate or am I overreacting? x

You were best friends for 10 years before dating and he has only just met your sister? Hmm

JodieF123 · 18/11/2013 19:27

how old are you and your sister, jodie ?

CogitoErgoSometimes · 18/11/2013 19:37

Your boyfriend is a jerk to be ignoring you in favour of hanging out with other people 'ALL the time' in the first place. Your sister is a jerk for making an obvious play for your boyfriend. Don't wait to be dumped. Ditch him and tell her to grow up.

I think you have been delegated to Best friend again while your DSis is now dating him.
Dump him before he dumps you. As for your sister-how old is she???

JodieF123 · 18/11/2013 19:45

she's 28, I'm 26 and he's 29, they do seem to make a really nice couple! I think your right itsmeisntit I have been dumped back to friend I think!

have you asked her outright if anything is going on?

MistAllChuckingFrighty · 18/11/2013 19:51

This is all a bit teenage, isn't it ?

Perhaps you should send one of your mates over to see if he is still your boyfriend.

itsmeisntit · 18/11/2013 19:54

Move on and find someone who wants to be with you and not your sister. I think l would also have a word with Dsis--this is not how to steal your sisters boyfriend. She should have the decency to wait until you have split before she gets her claws into him.
In this case they are both at fault, blood should be thicker than water

ALittleStranger · 18/11/2013 19:57

Hmm, I'm a fan of a slow burn romance, but I think if you were friends for ten years before getting it together and it's already burning out then it seems he's just not keen; he was slow to make a move and now he's quick to let you go. Maybe your sister shares the qualities he likes in you and brings some more of her own to ticks all his boxes?

Twinklestein · 18/11/2013 20:20

Bloody hell, first rule of sistership don't pinch your sister's bf.

I'd leave them to it, they deserve each other.

wontletmesignin · 18/11/2013 21:08

I dont think you even needed to post on here about this. It seems the picture has been painted perfectly for you to see.

Dont waste any more time. Seriously.
Id be having strong words with both of them. Mostly the sis! Ridiculous to think there are sisters out there who would do that!

Bazoo23 · 18/11/2013 21:15

Could you not just speak to him/her?
For what its worth I hang out with my boyfriends brother all the time, I absolutely adore him. But its completely platonic, hes like my best friend.

EQ2Junkie · 18/11/2013 21:15

Hard as it is I think you need to back out gracefully and leave this sorry pair to each other.

A best friend and a sister who treat someone like this are a pretty shitty pair.

LuciusMalfoyisSmokingHot · 18/11/2013 21:19

Back away and watch the car crash happen!!!

waltermittymissus · 18/11/2013 21:22

He's been your best friend for 10 years but never met your sister?

He spends all his spare time with her and is always on the phone to her?

What??

Your not overreacting at all it’s abit strange but just talk to them about is x

doubleaces89 · 04/10/2020 00:04

Personally, as blood clearly isn't thicker in this case, I'd cut off ties with my sister, and walk away from this car crash waiting to happen...

Gorganzolabrie · 04/10/2020 00:08

Zombie thread!

Sunflower1970 · 04/10/2020 03:41

I think you need to remove your rose coloured glasses. She is not a decent sister and he is not the kind of bloke you want a relationship with. He is clearly seeing her. Leave them to it , retain your dignity ,they are making a fool of you.

mallorytower · 04/10/2020 04:16

I wonder what happened?
