    My best friend is my brothers girlfriend
    So my best friend and I were inseparable, and I knew my brother and her were talking and liked each other and I supported them but now that they are official I can tell things are changing and it is beginning to bother me and my brother is 2 years older then me and my best friend is 1 year older than me. I love my brother, we have always gotten along well, but I also love my best friend.

    But I can tell that it can get uncomfortable because my brother is a little apprehensive to have me around with his older friend but she always invites me and yet I try not to budge, but in the inside I really want to be with my best friend and now every time I see her she is either with my brother or at school. I don't know what to do and I don't want to seem like a little tag along

    Two is company, three is a crowd, so get some other friends and your own thing to do with your own age, and don't be a tag along.

    Sometimes even best friends have to be given time and space to do what they want.

    Sorry guy, but you are right, things have changed and you no longer are inseparable with your best friend. That doesn't have to be a bad thing.

    We have talked about it and she does not want for us to kill the friendship.

    You can be friendly without being a tag along. Just say NO, and have other friends to have fun with.

    You should not let a friendship come between you and your brother, nor allow a friend to influence any actions that are disrespectful to him, and you have said, he isn't comfortable with this friendship.

    It's a difficult position to be in, but you have to make a decision that's the right one for you.
