Finding it hard to be a best friend and maybe sister-in-law!

Question - (4 July 2006) 3 Answers - (Newest, 7 July 2006)
A female , anonymous writes:

Hi,this is really getting me down. My best friend got together with one of my brothers. She never said she liked him before that but now they seem very happy.However, I just still feel weird about it - I guess because my friend did not 'ok' it with me. She talks about my brother in the same way we discussed boyfriends but has no idea of the boundaries here - I can't be objective as he's family!

I really want to be happy for them both, but finding it hard to mix the two roles of best friend/ potential sister in law...I think our friendship is really suffering here, but she doesn't seem too bothered....What should I do?

helpful girl agony auntjust be pateint and see what live brings at the end of the day what ever it brings i think your brother will thank you for letting him be happy. Put it this way would you prefer your brother to be with a woman you dont know who may mess him about badly in the future or with your friend that you know well and who may not mess him about? She maybe didnt tell you because she proberly knew what you would of reacted like but some times it is hard to face your feelings when you like some one thats proberly why she hid it from you. Another thing think well sister in law best friend ive got her in my life for quite a while now and be happy about it.
