    There was a time when a girlfriend of mine was dating a guy at the same time she was dating me. We were all friends, but my brother kept being a bastard about the whole thing, & told me that it meant I was dating the guy as well. Which I wasn't. & a bunch of other people, family/friends thought the same thing. Anyone ever had a relationship like that?

    Well, my last real bf had another gf. We'd met, knew what was going on, but I certainly wasn't dating her, nor her me. I think you're bro is full of it (which I think is part of his job as your brother, isn't it?)

    Yeah, he was just messing with me, but he said it so often that it definetely got irritating. I had no interest in the other guy. Maybe it is because I dated him over a year before that, but that had only been for 3 weeks. -frown-

    Wow, I have alot of respect for you! I would definetely have jealousy issues if I had a boyfriend who was dating another girl. But if it was another boy, I wouldn't have a problem with it...

    Whats the difference, either way you are not the only one they are emotionally involved with. I don't think I could be with someone who was with someone else of either gender, especially for an emotional thing. Maybe you are little bit more uncomfortable with the relationship then you want to admit to yourself. That could be why the comments are having such an effect.

    Why/How did brother/other friends know details? Loose lips threaten (relation)ships. I always thought personal relationships were, er..a..private matters!

    What's wrong with your family and friends knowing that you're dating someone? Confusion...

    I could talk to my brother about alot of things, only he can be an ass sometimes. That's his job as my brother,though. :tongue:

    Nothing bad happened, I just felt uncomfortable with him trying to say I was dating my ex again when I wasn't...it wasn't a good relationship at all.
