A female United Kingdom age 30-35, *rincessBeckie writes:

i broke up with my recent ex 3 weeks ago, we were only together a week and a half and we didnt get on at all in that time, unfortunatly we did sleep together once or twice and ive been best mates with his brother since before we got together. his brother is 17 and im 20 but he helped me through the break up and we both admitted we have feelings for each other, we are now secretly dating behind all his familys back and my ex has already moved on to another girl 5 years younger than him. i dont care about it but my ex threatened his brother that he wasnt to go near any girl he had been intimate with whether he liked me or not, my current boyfriend says hes never been close to his brother and he would give everything up for what we have together. ive offered him a place to stay if he gets kicked out but all im doing is worrying that im going to lose him now for what we have done. does anyone have any advice or been in a similar situation to make me feel any better.

A male reader, The Realist Canada +, writes (13 July 2011):

The Realist agony auntFirst off if his brother (your ex) has moved on and it was only a week thing I can't see why he would be all that upset about it unless he has reason to think you were a bad person and would hurt his brother. It's not like you two were married or even dated long enough for it to really be called a relationship. I think you are worrying about this way to much. The 17 year old should have just said to his brother that he has feelings for you and see what reaction he got. In fact he could still do that. Also so the two of them live alone because I can't see the families be too shaken up by this. His may be a little cold because they think you will just jump from family member to family member but other then that they will probably just shrug it off.

The best advice to take to make you feel better is to come clean and realize that you aren't hiding any crazy dark secret. No one will probably care an awful lot and you are just worrying over nothing.
