writes:I have a question wich is causing a great problem in my home and personal life.me and my boyfriend live together, i'm pregnant and tend to get emotional. my brother very occasionally stays over at our house for days and days in a row, now the only problem with this is that when my brother stays over my brother and boyfriend spend all of their time together and leave me pushed out on my own in a different room. so basically my boyfriend spends more time with my brother than me, in the days in which i need to be comforted and supported and already feel emotional. the other small problem is the fact that my brother already feels pushed out because of the fact that our dad kicked him out of his house and he is having problems now living with our mother. so i dont want to upset him and push him out, altough i feel that i cant go on with my relationship if im not the one involved in it, i only get to see my boyfriend as it is wen he is at home and now his time at home is all taken up by my brother. please help me because i dont want to have to leave my boyfriend.

I understand your position here and the attention you need at this delicate time. Have you spoken to your boyfriend about your feelings on this? If so, how did he react? Have you had a heart to heart with your brother and told him that, as your time is already so limited with your boyfriend, he needs to let you two be for a time? At least for a few hours to sit and talk with each other when he gets home from work? Take them both asside seperately and explain how you feel. It doesn't hurt to try. Good luck sweetie.
