I would tell her that you feel obliged to tell your brother, but you wanted to give her time to do it herself.

Give her the time, and then tell him if she doesn’t.

Be prepared for no one to like you after the dust settles, though.

Start looking for friends with better ethics. They are out there.

Since we have no general question but rather something mundane and pointless(to most of us) , this is moved to MPSIMS from General Questions.

No harm posting in the wrong place. It’s common for new folks to make these mistakes. Nobody is upset about it.

You can’t beat **Ulfreida** ’s advice.

Although if you want to make some money perhaps a vid of a foursome with you, your bro, his GF, and the other guy might be saleable to the right website. Which is not this one.

I feel sad for your brother - he has a crappy girlfriend _and_ a crappy best friend. Spare him from having a sister who doesn’t have his back.

Why are you telling us? Or are you telling everybody?!

I’ve been trying for years, no _decades_ to get TPTB to create a relationship forum.

What happened to the “n” in “find”?

Happens to me sometimes when I’m posting from my phone, and I hit the space bar instead of the N.

ETA: Shoulda refreshed. Ninja’ed.

On my phone I hit spacebar instead of “n” about half the time. Try as I might I can’t learn to aim a little higher. Why “n” does it more than “m” or “b” I can’t explain.

You know what else happens when you don’t aim higher?

One of the reasons I often don’t wear shoes. I hate pee on my shoes. 😃
