I’m pretty sure that this is the “horrible” brother who doesn’t like him because

A) He was sleeping with her years ago and he described her as retarded (he may have said it a nicer way) and “underaged”.

B) He spent something like half of every week at the mom’s house, mooching off mom and getting in her and the brother’s way.

C) He turns into a whiney bitch when the brother wants to play his own video games on his own TV and won’t share with the guy who’s boinking his sister.

D) Oh yeah…he fucks the girl in the next room from her brother.

E) It was the BROTHER’S fault that the two of them didn’t/don’t get along, despite all that.

So…I’m taking about 90% of this with a large grain of salt.

Sorry kid, not buying your version of the drama.

There was my first girlfriend who was a bizarre super-horny goth chick living with her fundamentalist christian granny whom she hated (and believe me, she was messed up). There was the 48-year-old (nothing _apparently_ wrong with her, but come on, at that age difference, there’s gotta be something). Then there was the girl who suffers from GID with the republican parents who are about as understanding of that as the EPA is about leaking nuclear waste into the local water supply.

Do you recognize the common denominator for each of those relationships?

You seem to have misunderstood my post. When I said that you were full of shit, what I actually meant was that you are full of shit. As in, that story is a load of shit and everything you have written was a crock of shit. Stop making things up you silly child.

Different girl.

The situation has changed significantly since then. _Significantly_.

When you open hostilities and talk shit about me behind my back, yeah, it is your fault.

What, you mean the whole “him being an abusive cunt to his sister” part that has about zero to do with me?

I thought I said as much in the post… Or is it something else I’m missing?

Honestly, go fuck yourself. I don’t give a shit what you think.

Ask brother if he wants to join you and sister next time. That should smooth things over!

Coming from the deviant pervert\* who [ul]  
[li]supports people posting pictures of kiddie porn on the internet because, hey, the pics are already out there and you feel bad for the kiddie rapists and that the victim’s ongoing pain is irrelevant, [/li][li]the guy who couldn’t figure out how to masturbate without reading a book, [_]the guy who fantasizes about hypnotizing girls to make them have sex with you because you can’t envision yourself meeting one in real life, [/li][li]the guy who hasn’t been outside of his mommy’s basement in years, [_]the guy who berates his mommy for not buying him the precisely right food for whatever made-up allergy you have on a given week[/ul][/li]…you of all people talking about how _others_ give advice about running away from life may be the biggest hypocritical statement ever spoken by any human (or, in your case, alleged human) since the dawn of time.

Why don’t you shut up, you diseased asshole?  
\*Mainly for the bold pro-kiddie porn stance, but the rape girls under hypnosis fantasy is pretty damned creepy too.

But hey, he also “dated” a developmentally-disabled girl of about 14 when he was a legal adult, so it balances out.

Words cannot describe what I would do to a guy who knocked my girlfriend unconscious. Call me old fashioned, but moral support just wouldn’t cut it for me, there would be a reaction.

Why haven’t you grown a set of balls and put this supposedly obese sack of shit firmly in his place? Might it be because you are a pimply little neckbeard with an internet connection who is making this shit up to kill time between wanking over ponies or something?

1. Because he’s her fucking _brother_
2. Because getting barred from her house would make it so that we see each other once a month or so
3. Because _I enjoy not being in jail you dipshit_

Whew! For a second there, I was thinkin’ he might be _weird._ But he’s well-balanced after all, I see.

She was sixteen and that developmental disability turned out to be Gender Identity Disorder.

Next time he batters her you can call the police and have him arrested. Ask them to have her bruises photographed as evidence.

As for leaving her or not, remember this… he will ALWAYS be her brother.

No, sorry, I remember how the exchange went and how there was no way her mom was talking about her “mental age” like you eventually claimed. Either you were making the whole thing up or it was statutory rape.

Protips

Protip #1: It’s not threadshitting when he’s commenting on your posts, pretty much by definition.

Protip #2: The brother talking about you “behind your back” in his own house? Go cry me a river, kid. You were mooching for months if not years. He shouldn’t have to leave his home to bitch about an unwanted houseguest.

Protip #3: Anyone who brags about fucking a retarded 14 year old girl has forfited the moral high ground forever.
