Question Posted Thursday February 24 2005, 9:38 pm
My brother and I are nine years apart but we get along great and I love him to death. Over the years my brother has been with a few girls and I've always got along with them. But his new girlfriend (he live with her at her moms house because we moved and there was no room) but anyways we dont get along I mean I try to like her but shes a bitch to me and my friends. My best friend shes like my sister she considers mty bro her bro and my bros girlfriend is always a bitch when shes around. She is very stuck up and im afraid my brother is going to be with her for a long time.......What should I do I want to like her but I cant.

Saying that she is a bitch will probably just anger him. Just let it flow and make sure he knows how you feel. [ Football33prep's advice column | Ask Football33prep A Question ]

Just keep in mind that he might get defensive over it, trying to stand up for his girlfriend - but if you present your case carefully and logically, without trying to attack her, you might drive the message home, and maybe your brother will be able to deliver that message to her. For all we know, the girlfriend's attitude might be her defense mechanism for feeling like she's not accepted - hard to say. [ MFS's advice column | Ask MFS A Question ]

TheTeenGirl answered Friday February 25 2005, 3:39 am: I definetly doubt that you're jealous, you and your brother are close, and you need a talk with him, I'm sure everyone else has said it, or talk to her for that matter, the next time she does something, say "howcome your always like this with me, I don't act this way with you." Just say that and see what she says, but I am hoping that your bother will either get rid of her, or will talk to her, remind him that you feel like and know that she should respect you, because if she had respect for your brother, she'd have respect for you, and if he starts to stick up for her, stop him and say "listen, I would never lie, or make any effort to break you guys up, I love you, and I wouldn't do this to you." I hope it works!
FunkyHoMoSapien answered Thursday February 24 2005, 11:03 pm: my first idea is to talk to your bro about it, becuase if anyone could stop it i no he can. and u might wanna ask her why she's such a bitch to you! and it might be good to tell her that you dont hate her and just wanna be her friend. if she doesn't listen and still acts like a bitch to you, should just try ignoring her. your brother though has all the power in this fight and all you can do is ask him to try and help. srry if i'm to vague, but i hope it all works out.
