Think of it as this one: Two twin boys wanted to always date and eventually marry twin sisters. The boys were like best friends, and the girls were like best friends. Both the boys dated and married the twin girls and are still together. It's really the same concept. Nothing wrong with it at all! Lots of people do it. =) [ xXxpinky615xXx's advice column | Ask xXxpinky615xXx A Question ]
sunnyville answered Thursday August 18 2005, 1:52 pm: There is nothing wrong with that so if you want to date her tell her what you feel about her and that you don't have bad intentions with her.You should also speak with your brother about this before you begin dating her and there should be no problem with that you could date whoever you want to it's your life don't listen to those who chose for who they want you to date because that person will most likely want to control your life which is totally wrong.Be free to be with who you want to be with.

xomegaroni answered Thursday August 18 2005, 12:54 pm: definately not taboo er incest. since you guys aren't blood related it isn't much. now if you were, that'd be different. basically it's through marriage, so go for it if you feel comfortable with it.
Girlwithamansname answered Thursday August 18 2005, 11:24 am: The relationship wouldn't be incestuous because, as you said, there is no blood relationship between the two of you. Some people might find it a little odd but, on the other hand , some might think it charming.
Personally, I would see nothing wrong with the relationship as long as you are all happy. I do think you should consider what would happen if one of the relationships breaks down. For example, if your brother marries his fiance but your relationship with your sister-in-law (to be) breaks down, then that could make for some very awkward family gatherings.
You should probably try talking to your brother about this to see whether he and his fiance would be comfortable with the situation. And of course, you should be sure that the girl in question likes you.
bound_heart answered Thursday August 18 2005, 10:54 am: Dictionary.com defines incest as, "relations between persons who are so closely related that their marriage is illegal or forbidden by custom."
Firstly, you aren't related to this person yet, even by marriage. Secondly, when your brother gets married, you will only be related to his sister-in-law by marriage and not by blood. All this to say that it's not incest.
There was a situation in my family that was simliar to this one. My Auntie and Uncle met and got married. At about the same time my Mother (Auntie's little sister) and my Father (Uncle's little brother) met and, soon after, got married. No one in the family had a problem with it, and because of it the family tree gained three new sprouts (myself and my two cousins).
If you like her, you feel comfortable with it and it doesn't cause trouble in your family, persue it. If it were me, I'd just take care to take into consideration how it's affecting the rest of the family... you don't want to cause tension between your brother and his fiancee.
