    Welll... on a family vacation to Europe I finally decided enough was enough and I told my brother. He reacted really well; he was completely fine with it (a little confused about the fact that I have a girl friend though...). At first, it really didn't give me that sense of relief that I thought it would, maybe I was just scared or embarrassed that he knew. But little by little I feel less awkward being around him and talking about it.
