writes: My boyfriend and I broke up awhile ago. We were together for a few years. I am in my mid twenties. My parents know because i was really upset. For some reason, rather than tell my brother who lives close by i have just pretended everything is the same and we are still together. He never asks much about him because he knows i am private and i just never did talk about him much to begin with. I don't know why i have been keeping it a secret. Maybe because then its more people finding out like my sister in law, her sister, its answering questions and just admiting we aren't together. I just didn't want to bothered with it. It was easier to just pretend with him everything is the same.My birthday is coming up and i am going to vegas. I am not sure what to do.. tell my brother i am going with friends along with my ex? or say something like we are on good terms and still talking but taking a break right now. I decided to just go with friends to vegas. I know this situation is probably easy for a lot of people but its not for me. I feel weird about it and uneasy. What should i tell my brother?

 I think you should just be honest and say you are not together but you don't want to talk about it. Your bro will be hurt if he finds out you've been lying to him.
