That is a difficult situation to be in. I don't see why you two shouldn't go out- since there is a mutual attraction, and she already wants to go out with you, you should at least see how things go with her. You even mentioned that you think she's awesome, which is a very good sign. I am sure that you know what kind of a person she is already. Just because she is your best friend's sister, doesn't mean that she is off limits. You aren't doing anything wrong in this situation. I think that you should talk to her about it and let her know that you feel a bit uncomfortable going out with her behind her brother's back, and see how if she is okay with maybe having the two of you explain to her brother that you really like each other and get along well, and that you are interested in seeing each other. You don't have to tell him that you have already been going out, but that you are going to-- but you should definitely talk to her first, and then come to an agreement on how best to let her brother know. It might be awkward for all three of you- but the important thing to remember is that you two like each other in more ways than one, and that nothing should get in the way of your relationship. Your friend will have to accept it... and considering how long you two have known each other, it might be a lot easier for him to do so. Doing anything behind anyone's back is never really the way to go.

Thanks for that! It really helped me the way you explained it made me feel like there was hope. :)

I am here to give honest advice, when I feel I have something to contribute. I try to be as empathetic and understanding as I can, as I know that the way something is said is as important as the message itself.

I usually advise on love/relationships, friendship and family issues, nutrition, and health (mental and physical). If I feel I can help out, there's not a whole lot I am unwilling to answer. Ask away!
