"spooning" not appropriate?
15/f
hi, i was just wondering: is it weird to be still "spooning" with my 25 year old brother every once in a while?
not that it's sexual in anyway but ever since he left college when i was younger, i've tried sleeping with him and being as close as i possibly could because i missed him so much.
i'm not a little girl anymore and he's DEFINITELY not a kid either...but it's ok...right?
i'm just wondering what most peoples opinions are on this since most of my friends think it's weird. :P

It definately SOUNDS wierd when you put it like that... "spooning". If it is at all sexual for either one of you (you WOULD know, deep down, if it was) then I would say it is NOT normal and you should stop. If this cuddling is something that you both have done all your lives and it feels normal, then I wouldn't worry about it. Cultures are different for each family. What feels normal for one may not feel normal for the next. I would probably keep that info to yourself if others are judging you about it. I think it is nice to be close to your siblings and your parents. It is good and normal to express your affection towards your family (again, as long as its not sexual). There are many places in the world where the whole family sleeps in the same bed. Americans gawk at that and think its "bad"... but its not. Bottom line is... if you don't feel like you should worry about it, then don't.

It's not weird, not if you have a sibling or parent you're particularly close to. I mean, I used to sleep in bed with my mom until I was like 14, because when Dad left she HAD to know where I was, and then it just became habit.
It's not that odd, not really. ^_^

first i would never use the term "spooning" with a family member. if your spooning how spooning is done, then its just weird, because hes your brother and hes 25, you guys arent 5 and 7.. you can keep doing it, but in my opinion its strange.

Not going to lie, I think that's a little off. The person below me said it's just like cuddling with your parents. Cuddling with your parents is pretty weird too. As long as it's nothing sexual, you could legally continue, but it's not normal.

it's just like spooning with your parents.. a form of cuddling. i dont think there is anything wrong with it. if you and your brother have been doing this since you were younger or not that young at all and you both have no problem with it, then it's totally fine. you love him and miss him and its okay to want to feel close to your family members. its also cool that you have such a strong bond with your brother :]
but dont worry about other peoples opinions, i mean, i think its fine.. nothing wrong with it.. unless it was sexual, then there would be a problem, but its not :] so you're good to go.
good luck ! hope i helped :] xxo.
