Question - (13 May 2009) 3 Answers - (Newest, 19 May 2009)
A female Canada age 30-35, anonymous writes:

Long story short, this guy and I have recently started liking eachother, we really tend to hit it off quite well, and i could see us really going somewhere in the future.. only problem is, his sister hates mostly all of his girlfriends and ex's. She tells girls to stay away from her brother.. (i would know, because a couple of my friends have tried with him)

I'm scared that if I do date him, what she will do,and if i would have to be extra careful in the relationship and what would happen if we broke up.

some people say its not worth it, some people say i should try it, him and his sister are really close, i don't know how to go about the situation.

if i were to go for it, what are some things i could from preventing this to happen? his sister really liked me before i took interest in her brother, now she barely looks at me..

should i just forget it all together?

It sounds like your guy and his sister might have had some kind of sexual relationship with each other at one time. Why else would she hate all his girlfriends, and start to dislike you after she initially liked you? I think you better find out from this guy what kind of relationship he had with his sister? Also, is she younger or older, and does she have a boyfriend or not? If she doesn't, I would suspect there might have been, or currently be, something going on between her and her brother. Talk to him and ask him to be honest with you about why his sister acts so strange. It is not normal for a girl to do something like this, trying to run off all the potential girlfriends her brother might have. Post back after you have talked to him and let us know what he said so that we can continue to advise you.

Hey

I don't think you should 'leave it all together'.

Maybe if you like this guy, you should try to get to know his sister as friends, but always make it clear to her that you do like her brother, so that if you ever do become friends, that she doesn't think you were only using her to get to him.

You could also try explaining to him that you would like to get to know his sister. It's maybe only that she wants the best for him, as they may be close.

If you want something bad enough you should go and get it, and I'm sure that if you guys get to know each other properly you wil get along quite well =]

The fact that she now looks at you different could be to do with the fact that she feels like you guys only liked each other to get to her brother, you need to let her know that this isn't the case. She can't expect her brother to be alone forever, so she has to let someone in, why can't that person be you?

Good Luck =] xxx

romance_boy18 agony aunti know this sounds crazy but do u ever wonder just how close they are? u have to think of that possibility cuz me and my sis are close so much that no 1 would understand. brothers and sisters usually fight but in rare occasions they get along like there friends. friends normally will become best friends and so on.
