i will tell u something cause this happened with me before the only thing u can do is to talk to your brother in somewhere alone and tell him that u love your boyfriend and u r the one who choose him so tell him to respect that and respect u and tell him that all your fights now with your boyfriend is because of him and then tell your boyfriend i want you to stop fighting with my brother cause like this we will live unhappy...a note for u see the one who is the most making the problem and talk with him about how ur life is unhappy because of that..i hope this can help u it worked for me.

Try to get the problem resolved. Talk to both seperately. Then do some analysis. Is brother trying to be over-protective and bf resents it? Just an example. But you have to take the initiative.

Let them know their aggressions make you feel as if your stuck in the middle. You don't appreciate seeing people you care about fight, which you do both of them, and their not considering you feelings in having to watch it, and should have more respect for each other than to carry on like children over little things.
If you need to have everyone get together and come up with a plan. If they have trouble controlling their anger, make a group decision that if anger begins, whichever one decides walks away and the other person may not follow. Their a bit big for time out, but it almost seems as behaviors which would call for one.
