my brother annoys me when it comes to boys
hellooo :) i have a good friend, he is a guy. he is 16 turning 17, i just turned 18. so a couple months ago he came over when everyone at my house was gone. my shades in my room were closed because before he was over i took a nap, and just never opened them up. we just layed in my bed and watched tv. well then my 21 year old brother walked in the house, and i didn't want him to suspect anything so i went out in the living room to talk to him and he was like whose here? and i was like joe. and he was like oooOoooh ;) i just brushed it off, like whatever. well now he always bugs me about it. if i say im texting him he will be like oh you "boyfriend" joe. he has a girlfriend, obviously im not going to do anything with him and my brother knows he has a girlfriend. i was like don't you have a GIRL best friend and he was like yeah, and i was like exactly and he was like but we dont lay in my bed with the blinds shut. i was like ok seriously whatever its so annoying to have to hear that from him! he even got my family involved. i try to act like it doesn't bother me when he teases me about it, but it does. whenever his name is mentioned, my brother will bring up that situation. is there anything i can do? anything i can say to my brother? oh i've never had an actual boyfriend either. thanks.

You can tell him to stop, but he isn't going to.
Just ignore him and anyone else who is teasing
you. They are having fun at your expense but
its a family thing. Once you start ignoring
him it won't be any fun for him anymore. :)

Honestly just tell him it really bothers you and do it in a time he isnt mentioning it. bring it up like. you know every time you hear joe's name and you bring up that one time. i find it very annoying and i really would like if you could please stop. He picks on you because your his little sister.

Ask him to stop.
In a real, straightforward, not playful way say just this:
"Joe has a girlfriend and I find your joking really, really insulting. Please stop."
And then repeat. Don't justify or try to explain. Don't pretend it doesn't bother you and don't shrug it off or laugh. Each time he brings it up just look him square in the eye and say "I've told you that what you are saying isn't true and I find it really, really insulting. Stop it."
Say the exact same thing if any other member of your family does this. If they really wont stop, stand up, polietly excuse yourself and remind them "What you are saying is really insulting to me, so I've got to leave right now."
It might take a week or two of repeating your message, but they'll catch on.
