My brother's friend pulled back before anything had developed between us. Could he just be worried about dating his mate's sister?

I have been friends with this guy for a while. He's actually great friends with my brother. We email each other and talk on the phone. He lives quite far away, so we don't see each other that often.

The last time I saw him things were different. We got on so well. We were flirting and there was a connection between us but we would be laughing and flirting and then it's as if he backed away. It has been different since I have been back home. He doesn't email as much and he's different. On the very few occassions when he actually calls me he just seems to not want to get too frindly.

I think I really like him and that something could happen between us. I have spoken to my brother about it and he thinks that he does like me but may be reluctant to get involved with me because of their friendship. He says that he will talk to him about it if I want and tell him that if he wants to date me it's okay with him.

What if he's not interested though and he has just picked up on the fact that I like him and is backing off as a result, should I let my brother talk to him??

aunt_bec! agony auntFirstly your not alone it happens to the best of us!

In my experience most men will wil still date their friends sister if they like her because they arent as emotional as us, but then again he might not be like most men.

There could be many reasons why hes pulling back, it may be because of the distance, or maybe hes having problems in his life which is making him act distant.

My advice is not to get your brother to speak to him he'd respect you more if you voiced your concern with him.

You may be too shy to tell him how you feel but just explain to him that he seems different lately and ask if there is anything he may feel better dicussing with you. If he has feelings for you he will open up and explain whats been making him distant, then if it is your brother thats worrying him you can advise your brother to speak to him then.

What ever happens whats meant to be will be.
