reader, anonymous, writes (6 January 2009): Unfortunately, there are lines you just don't cross and this is one of them. You only get sexually involved with your best friend's siblings if you 2 are in a relationship (and even getting into that is tricky), but you don't just have casual sex with him. It makes things too complicated.
Look at it this way... through her eyes, its her brother... and you're like a sister to her. So, when she walked in on that incident, it was like walking in on her brother and sister having sex. So, seeing it that way, to her it was disgusting.
Also, I think you mentioned your best friend is Egyptian. There are may be some cultural things here at work as well which, for her, makes what you did so terrible. She just may not view casual sex as freely as you do, especially when it comes to family members. Its one thing what you do with other guys, but a whole other ball game to do it to her brother.
That said, the others are correct... you need to give her some time. And you need to apologize... and when you do, please take into consideration what I've written. Saying you're sorry without understanding her point of view is meaningless.
Hope this helps.
