Dating your best friends bro
I slept with my best friend’s brother. It was totally unplanned but now my feelings for him have completely changed and it turns out he has always had a thing for me! I don’t think my friend will be happy if we started dating though so I don’t know whether to pursue it or not. What would you do?

I think you should talk to your friend about this. You don’t want to lose her friendship over a relationship that might not work out. On the other hand it would be great if you could take the time to see where things go with her brother. Sit her down and be honest, explain that you two are interested in dating but that you want to know her opinion first. If you explain that her friendship is more important and you wouldn’t dream of pursuing it without getting her blessing first, she’ll not only feel like you’re respecting her, but that you both truly care about her. I’m willing to bet that the warm and fuzzies that come with that simple act will make her think twice before saying “no!”
It is a delicate situation, but as long as you respect your friend’s feelings and are completely honest with her then she shouldn’t have any need to feel upset that you two are into each other.
It’s really important to keep in mind that this guy is her brother… so any girly discussions you two used to have about your boyfriends are OUT – or you’ll end up putting your friend in a serious too-much-information situation. So it may be best to leave out the fact that you’ve already slept together. There’s no need to lie about it, but at the same time there’s really no need to bring it up either. Sarah xx
