    So recently I found out that my boyfriend's brother knows my sister. None of my family knows I'm dating anyone... What should I do. I mean my sister isn't great friends with him but still... He's seen me a couple times with his brother.

    Does the brother know that you and your boyfriend are more than just friends? If not, it's probably unlikely that he'll say anything to your sister... that said, if you're worried about this you may want to just come out to your sister and get that over with, unless you know that she'll respond extremely negatively or tell your parents. What's your home situation like?

    Oh! Well. You'll just have to bank on the fact that your sister and his brother aren't close friends. You should be okay.

    Wow, did they disown him because hes gay? I guess that would probably make it worse
    :frowning2:.

    Well I guess in this one you just have to let fate run its course. Though even if the brother told your sister, she would most likely come and talk to you first to see if its true. Maybe then you could explain the situation and come out to her. I would imagine that if you have a good relationship with her, and she knows how your parents would take it, than you could probably convince her not to say anything. I wish you the best :slight_smile:

    OMG, that's terrible, if i had a child then i would support them all the same, even if they did resent me for setting up a perfect life for them...
