My brother's friend and I like each other. How do we date without making my brother feel like a third wheel?

Tell your parents you are all going to the movies and getting a bite to eat @ a restaurant. You do go to the movies but your brother brings along another friend and they see a movie together while you and your boyfriend go to another movie. You do go for a bite to eat at the same place, but at different tables far away from each other. That way your brother can go into a conversation w/ his person and you and your BF can go into another conversation w/ each other. Make sense? Good.

omg this was the exact same situation i was facing.. my last question was regarding this but the best frnd isnt such  a prob... if she is your best frnd then u shud knw how she will react and evn she should be encouraging if u let her know that this is wht makes u happy.. but dont wait others to tell her... but tell her once things are solidified.. just telling her that u like her bro might complicate things... as for him either u make a move or show interest in him or wait for him. i bet even he is scared of the whole sisters best frnd angle..

I totally feel you man. My best friend is Mormon, and I had to go through it... but the bottom line is that if he's your friend, he'll be chill with it. Just tell him at some point when you guys are just hangin out, and the mood is right. Just tell him that you're still you, and that your relationship wont change... just don't hit on him... that'll fcuk things up...

you are confuse probably because you somehow like both guys, but remember this sis... A caring guy is a cool guy... but a cool guy can never be caring...  But in the end it's still your decision that counts, since you somewhat like both guys, just follow your instint and don't get shallow by what you see from the outside...

That;s a hard blow!The only thing that you can do,is not tell your friend that  you like him.Or if she already knows, i am sure that she won't date him for  your sake.You got to remember, there are billions of guys out there.If they do date, just hang with other friends, and tell her that you just want time with her, the same as before, because you don't feel like being the 3rd wheel.It won't be long till another guy catches your attention, and than you can double date.Its not like you were intimate with this guy, so it will be fine,it will just take time to mend your heart after being rejected.Good luck!

just saying "i think i like you." isnt desperate or clingy... just do it... pretend its like your brother or somthing hah

I'm kind of in the same situation...only I am in love with my best friend so that could be the cause, huh?  Anyway, if your love for him is only as a friend, you're probably thinking of him as a brother, and close siblings are generally protective of each other.  It's okay to be protective, just don't let it get in the way of your friendship.

If your brother introduced you then I would imagine that he doesn't have a problem with it. You may want to casually mention that you are seeing the friend, but I don't think it is a must.

Have I got an answer for you!!!!  I went thru the exact thing- I kept telling him no no no no NO NO NO NO!  Day after day!!!!  It is just taboo to date your best friends brother!  Finally I said yes just to shut him up!  And we have been married for 22 years now.  Love can be right under your nose and u do not even know it!  Always take a chance on love!  Its well worth it when u win!

it is hard to say exactly how the brother feels about you, but it sounds as though he likes you a little, but mostly just trying to be nice to you & hook you up with his brother. Would i be wrong in assuming that you have an attraction to the brother, & you want him to like you? I think that if that is the case, then it would be wrong. Even if you & his brother broke up it would still be wrong. It would cause too many problems in the family, so if that is the case, drop the crush on the brother, & stick with the boyfriend, Or leave them both alone.

The best way to get a girl to like you is to be yourself. You can't make anybody like you. It is up to that person if they like you or not. Don't change yourself for anyone, especially a girl and don't be somebody that you're not. If she doesn't like you, her loss. She missed out on an opportunity to be with someone who will treat her right. As for the brother... screw him. You like his sister and she can decide who she wants to be with, not him. It's none of his business who his sister wants to date. Once he finds out that you're the right guy for his sister, he'll come around and he will accept you. Just be yourself. That's all you can do.

Well the worst thing you can do is sleep with the brother, that is a serious bond. The brother would never let you come between them if it were to come out. Second it is normal to be attracted to this guy ..but do you act on it NO. You just felt comfortable with him he was a different man taking an interest in you . A little crush that's it. If your not interested in your guy just let him go. Don't use him to get close to the brother.

If you like him like a brother what does it matter?  maybe you just need to worry about school and spelling before worrying about this guy liking you.

If you don't want to hurt his feelings .. try to come up with something other then "I like you as a friend, I like you like a brother, I think we should just be friends " line.  \n\nMaybe tell him you're not looking for a relationship at this time & you think your friendship is very important to you and you would never want to ruien what you have now with him .. and he means a lot to you !

Your brother is going to find out anyway, its inevitable. If he's really your bro's best friends, you're brother WILL find out. You'll just have to figure that out on your own.

Honey, female to female: If YOU feel uncomfortable, then YOU ought to stop hanging with them.  God forbid something happen to you while your with them, and your brother is not there.  Stop while your ahead.  If its deep enough for you to be asking on here, then you need to stop hanging with your bro.  Get some girl friends. I don't recommend hanging with only guys under any circumstances, those are the kind of girls who end up getting taken advantage of, by people they've known and trusted for years.

You are absolutely not crazy. You can start dating at your own discretion, after all, you're going to be the one chossing the guy, definitely not your sister. Tell your sister to worry about her own problems. Sometimes us women want that time to be independent, and then we find our soulmate.
