"My brother's the sort of guy who would probably get engaged to the first person he dates within weeks/months."

"The first person he's dating is someone I consider an awesome person, and a smoking hot babe, who would be a fantastic wife and mother, and wants to settle down."

I'll admit, my first thought was that he was cross dressing.

Yeah this really just seems like an over protective sister who doesn't entirely respect her friend or brother as much as she says. She seems to be on a bit of a high horse regarding who knows best.

Nothing wrong with talking to your brother about it, but aside from that let them live their own lives. They're two consenting adults in their mid to late twenties.

She wants the opposite - a stable professional, husband material and someone who'll make her a mother. We talk every day and she's not so subtly outlined her plan to be engaged in months.

Maybe she has been dating him for a while and is slowly trying to break it to her friend? This lady is making wild assumptions. I mean for fuck's sake, she thought he was cross dressing before she assumed he had a girlfriend!

I'm going to do some armchair psychoanalysis and just going to assume this is real. OP isn't married, she's either struggled to find someone who likes her enough, or she's struggled committing to anyone. Her brother is on the verge of getting married to her friend who she's clearly jealous of. She does not like the idea of her younger brother getting married before her, and will do anything to stop the union. She justifies her nefarious plot by saying in her own head that she's "just looking out for her brother" but it's pretty obvious that it's the opposite. airhorn

The original post, for posterity:

My baby brother Andy [25/M] has never been a whiz with the ladies. He was an extremely awkward boy, a very awkward teenager and only really grew into his body and self probably 4 years ago. Andy was always more interested in academic pursuits, would read French philosophy by the pool and would actively volunteer for summer school to learn new languages. He would spend weeks on end with our elderly neighbors who taught him Russian and Yiddish - we're neither Russian nor Jewish, but my WASP brother stuns elderly Jews with a complete fluency in Yiddish. Andy has a great job, is really well educated and has become a very handsome and funny man. But, I'm very protective. He had a rough time in school and I would have to defend him from guys in his grade. So, I still make sure he's okay.

My friend Alyssa and I met in nursing school and have been really close since, even currently working together at a day surgery unit. Alyssa has known my brother from the tail end of his awkward phase. She's always been courteous with him and they'd chat when they were both together but there was never any inkling of anything between them. My brother keeps his private life very private, I wasn't even sure if he'd ever really had a girlfriend, or lost his virginity. He's not one to talk about it and has never brought anyone home.

So, yesterday we had made plans for everyone to go for an early dinner. My parents were going to a show and me, Andy and my parents arranged to meet at a restaurant not far from Andy's apartment. I sent Andy a text that I was going to drop by and let myself in (I have a key to his place as he has a key to mine). I got there and let myself in. Usually his place is a boy's den. I figured I'd clean a bit but when I arrived it was immaculate. Then I noticed women's shoes and a handbag. I'll admit, my first thought was that he was cross dressing. I pressed further and I could see into his bedroom and while I fortunately couldn't see too much, I got what was going on. I got the hell out of there, quietly locked the door and bolted around the corner.

I sent a text saying I was running late and would meet him the half way mark to the restaurant. He immediately texted back and seemed relieved and said he was on his way. I quickly received another text saying he randomly bumped into Alyssa and would bring her along. We met up and they were laughing about whatnot and we walked to the restaurant. They played it like it was a completely random happenstance and at dinner didn't interact all that much. After dinner, my parents left and we went for dessert. Afterward he offered to walk her home. We all hugged and the two of them left in a full sprint.

When I got home I told my husband what I had seen (he was helping his brother move) and he didn't see a problem with it and thinks that I should just talk to my brother/Alyssa about it if it's bothering me. I'm not sure what to do. Alyssa is my best friend and while I think she's great and would make a great girlfriend, she has a lot more experience than my brother. I feel a bit protective of him. On the other hand, he's growing up and is free to date. From what I can gather he seems to be pretty happy. I arranged to have coffee with him today under the guise that my husband is still helping his brother and I was bored and in the area. We're meeting for coffee in a little while and I'm really not sure if I should say anything or keep my mouth shut.

Would it be a gross violation to tell him what happened? My big thing is that I want my brother to be happy but I also worry about him and want what's best for him. Can I bring it up and talk to him about everything?

Edit: Adding this comment to better explain Alyssa:

She's not terrible, I'm wording it wrong. Alyssa confided that she's "done" with dating and looking to "lock things down." Alyssa is pretty enough and wily enough that she could close that kind of deal with anyone. She'd be a great wife and a great mother, but she could lock it down before he really thinks about it. She's really sick of being single and my brother has certainly never met a tour de force like Alyssa before. She'll hit like a tornado and rearrange his life in seconds. My brother is an absolute catch - he's very well educated, thoughtful, has a great job (though he's really just starting out) and is good with money. She wants a husband/family/stable guy and I could easily see where this is going. She and I have been friends for a long time (~7 years) and we talk every single day. I know what she's looking for. And, what is there for her not to like? I can guarantee you that they could easily be engaged in weeks.

tl;dr: I let myself into my brother's apartment (I texted first) and got an eye full of him with my best friend. Neither know what I saw and I'm not sure if I should let him know what I know or if I should try and keep it quiet. Really not sure how to proceed.

Love the guys always trying to use gender reversal as some kind of "gotcha" card.

if the sexes were reversed and a 30-year old man was upset that his 30-year old guy friend was sleeping with his inexperienced, 25 year-old younger sister, there would be absolutely no reason or justification for him to be upset? None whatsoever?

I can guarantee you that the backlash would be against the hypothetical brother trying to control what his adult sister does with her nether regions.

The /r/gameoftrolls style gender reversing has been done many times in that sub. I'm sure someone if this submission stays up long enough, someone with the relevant bookmarks will show up. The sub is notorious for giving women the benefit of the doubt and not extending it to the same extent for men.

Off-topic, but what was /r/gameoftrolls?

[–]lamentedlyall Trump voters voted for ethnic cleansing 35 ポイント36 ポイント  (3子コメント)

From my understanding it was a sub where people would get together and be like, for example: "Okay, check it out, SRD hates people challenging feminism, so I created a sock a month or so ago to post some pretty normal stuff on TwoX to have a decently believable user history. But today, I made up some wild shit that a super crazy, stereotypical feminist might do and let's see how they have trouble criticizing 'her'! Maybe they'll even defend 'her'! Here's the link!"

It got banned, I guess, I wasn't redditing much then. But /r/relationships is still rife for that kind of thing and know people still go in there and repost stories from weeks before with the genders flipped and, almost without fail and certainly well, well over the majority of the time, what the sub criticized a guy for it'll defend a girl for, and vice versa.

GameofTrolls was a subreddit that actually had competitions amongst trolls or would link to troll arguments that they started among the default subs.

Low effort trolls would involve like a really loud video being hidden in a link, or linking to something disgusting.

High effort trolling involved either very long and detailed posts that caused a LOT of drama and ended with "i was trolling", or where they gained control of other subreddits and then fucked with the css.

Other examples:

Yeah, I'm honestly on her side after reading the linked parts. She didn't present it well, because she was trying not to badmouth her friend, but she clearly thinks her friend has some questionable, predatory personality traits.

Is be worried about my own brother in that situation. People are joking about how thrilled he would be to have her input on condoms, but I have literally had conversations about safety and sex with my brother about his girlfriend and it was a non issue. Some siblings actually do get along and understand each other...

Lol, clearly these two don't understand each other that well. Her first thought was that he was a crossdresser.

Pretty much everything about her irks me, I won't lie. She calls him her "baby" brother and he's only a few years younger than her and is in his mid-twenties. She goes over to his place to clean all the time? She says nothing good about her friend or her brother without immediately turning around and saying something bad.

Yeah, she doesn't think of him as an adult. Who cares if her intentions are good? She doesn't need to get into the middle of two adults' consenting relationship when she has nothing to go on except, "My brother is a catch and my best friend wants to settle down, oh nooooo."

i choose to believe op is actually madly in love with alyssa, and all this handwringing about her fucking her brother is due to the conflicting feelings she's having. on one hand, she wants the people she cares about to be happy. on the other......

She and I have been friends for a long time (~7 years) and we talk every single day. I know what she's looking for. And, what is there for her not to like? I can guarantee you that they could easily be engaged in weeks.

She has certain key assets that most men couldn't fight off.

Alyssa is also stunningly beautiful and any girl who tells a guy that he doens't need a condom isn't going to think clear enough. How many times do people risk it? All the time. She's off birth control and charting her ovulation, and I'm worried I'm going to be an aunt to my best friend's baby before they've had a chance to really have a relationship.

Alyssa is definitely a babe - as I said elsewhere, she's a supermodel in scrubs.

the weird hyping up of her brother is her way of trying to convince herself that he and alyssa getting together is a good thing.

She doesn't have a very high opinion of her brother either. She talks about him as if he were 12 and completely unaware of the way the world works. Someone in the thread said it best:

In your own words, he's a naive, inexperienced, dork who is more likely to be cross dressing than sleeping with an attractive woman. That's not how one speaks of someone they hold in high regard.

It's more like she is looking for something to justify her jealousy over losing her status as the #1 gal in her brother's life. It'd be easier for her to justify butting in if he were interested in someone who were obnoxious or a loser, so she is mentioning qualities of Alyssa's that are completely normal and fine (wants to get married soon, has a strong personality, etc.) in the hopes that someone will agree that this makes her a monster and she can still be her brother's best girl. Instead, she is coming off as totally ridiculous and a helicopter sibling. This has nothing to do with her brother or Alyssa and is all about her.

To be fair, my brother has been best friends with the same guy since they were 11, and while they are close, and my brother thinks his best friend is a great guy, he is pretty open about thinking he's the shitty boyfriend and any girl who ends up in a relationship with him is wasting her time. It's not malicious, it's just that this guy is lazy in relationships, panics over every little thing, jumps ship at the smallest sign of a possible future issue, then regrets it and begs the girl to come back. He's also really shitty at standing up for himself in relationships, and making his own needs and wants known. He will go along with a plan we all know he doesn't want to do, because he doesn't want to say no, then he gets resentful for being "forced" to do something he didn't want to do. For example, he spent three months following this indie band on tour, living out of a minivan with his girlfriend at the time. She loved it, that kind of shit was her jam. My brother's best friend is a huge homebody and introvert who hates traveling, indie music, live concerts, and camping. He was so fucking miserable that whole trip, and he made her miserable too because he couldn't just say "Hey, this kind of thing just isn't for me. I really don't want to go."

As someone who was a teen when it came it, it was seriously mind blowing. I watched it with my nephew a couple years ago and because pop culture had hammered into him the concept of it having a "famous twist", he thought the movie was just meh.

Right. Like I want to have kids by the time I'm 35 but I'm not going to start poking holes in condoms. I have a goal in mind and I think people tend to attach goals with easily remembered milestones (like birthdays or new years).

I partially wonder if her friend and brother have been dating for a while and not telling the sister, knowing she would act this way, and the friend has been trying to drop hints to see how the sister would react.

Does that make sense or am I reaching?

It might be a reach but I understand what you're saying.

Like "I really like this guy, I might be able to see a future with him..." as a way of letting her know that she's not just playing games with her family and actually appreciates him.

Yeah exactly! I definitely think this sister is an unreliable narrator.

Well that sort of changes things a bit. Until now I thought she was a clueless, overprotective and somewhat jealous sister who didn't really know what her brother was like; just the image he put up in front of his family. But if the birthday thing is true, I think everything else I said before is still true but maybe she thinks Alyssa is marrying him as a compromise in order to settle down. If that's the case then I can see why she's worried.

It is a bit weird, in a sense. I was afraid of losing my friend to my brother when they started dating. Jealousy I suppose.
