Many of you may remember my brother as being the “stand up” guy from this thread.
Anyway, he’s got another rotten habit: Constantly stringing dozens of girls along at the same time. At any given moment he’s dating 3 or 4 girls (all of them blissfully unaware of each other–most of them long distance).
Today I was just made aware of something that really irritates me, though.
So he’s been dating Girl A for about a year now. It’s long distance, although they’ve met once or twice. They talk nearly ever day either on the phone or on the internet.
Only now he’s met Girl B (in real life). Girl B moves in with him (which means she moved into my mom’s house as he still lives at home, but that’s another story) and they’re dating, sleeping together, etc. They’re also looking for their own apartment to move into.
Thing is, Girl A is now being ignored. She’s started to call and text my mom constantly. She’s worried out of her mind. She didn’t know if my brother was alive or dead because she hasn’t heard from him in over a week. She misses him greatly and is wondering what the heck is going on.
Mom was visiting me today, for about an hour, and she got about 6 pages in that time…all from Girl A.
My brother’s solution? To tell my mom to ignore her. To ignore her pages and calls and texts, just like he’s doing.
So now this is my internal debate. I’m friends with Girl A on Facebook and Google Plus. I could easily tell her what’s going on and, at least, let her know so she’s not worrying or going crazy wondering.
But, on the other hand, it’s none of my business either and I’m not involved with the situation at all (other than just being irked that my brother thinks it’s okay to treat women this way).
I’m guessing the advice I’ll get the most is: Don’t say anything, it’s not your problem, nor is it any of your business…which is fine…but like I said, it’s hard to just sit by and let people get treated this way and let my brother get away with doing it again and again.
