Dear LIB readers: I'm inlove with my boyfriend's brother

Whenever I put up these stories from other LIB readers, some of you think I make it up. I really don't. I don't have the patience...or the time. They are real stories (except the writers made it up themselves..lol) from real people, who need advise. I got this one this morning and decided to print and crop the mail so y'all can see its real :-). Continue to read the full story and see what advise you can give her...



Hi Linda. I usually dont do this but i like the way your bloggers give advice, so i need help.  I come from an ok family from the south east, but am dating a son of  wealthy south-western man. I am an educated woman in my own rights i have two bachelors and a masters and currently working on my mba. I work for fortune 500 company abroad, but I get to see my man when ever i can.  We have been together for three years now. I know he is madly inlove with me, and i thought i was inlove with him too, but after i spent christmas with him and his family, I found myself falling for the brother. I  was attracted to his brother's sexy brown chocolate features, smile, eyes, character, my sister, the guy is truly a well groomed prince.  His younger brother on the  other hand is cute and fair, very funny, very outspoken( his take attitude and intelligence are what attracted me to him at first). Am in my early twenties, very cultured, and i know its a taboo, at least in my culture to date two brothers. The  guy I have been dating happens to be the junior brother who is closer to my age, but  whenever am around his older brother, my knees get weak, and i get butterflies in my stomach.  I  still hold my Vcard, and for some strange reason my friends told me maybe that's why the older brother has interest in me, since i guess his brother spilled he hasnt touched me during a truth or dare game we played during the holiday. I hear so many rumors about how my boyfriend carries girls around when am not around, but i dont do rumors, I trust him, so i feel its wrong that I am  having such feelings for his brother. I mean  I want his brother to the extent that i would even let the guy pop my cherry. His older brother  and i share same birthday month and the guy got me a gift of poems, very thoughtful, and since then we have been texting, video chatting, its like we have become best friends, I feel i can tell him anything, and worst of all I have continued to fall even deeper inlove with him. He sent me a text yesterday saying  "If I only had met you before my brother did, then i would be the happiest man right now." I didnt know what to say. I just loled it.  Like i said I believe in traditions, I  want to tell him how i feel, but I come from ngwaland and its a taboo, to promise a man that you will marry him, then turn around and dump him for his brother. I dont want to destroy their relationship, I feel overwhelmed. I feel like  i should just leave the family alone and just  go my own way, because i dont want to be the force that divides them. I have spoken to one of their sisters whom I am closed to, but  she told me to stay with the brother who gets the biggest part of their father's empire. Its like she thought i was dating her brother for their money. I beg , money isnt everything. I dont want his family's money, am a content  hard working independent woman, who makes her own money, so i aint gold digging.I dont know what to do, I have been dodging my man's calls, texts, for three days now, but when ever his brother texts me I jump for the phone.  So advices please. I feel like am emotionally cheating on the guy am  currently dating with his older brother. What should i do, because I dont think I can control myself around his older brother when i go home this summer. Help!!!! Thank you Linda!!

  2. Hmmm this is a serious matter. No.1 d communication between u and his elder brother has to stop. 2, if u don't love this guy, pls leave him alone before u destroy a happy family. U can build the love u onces have for your man, if u can stop communicating with his elder brother, if u can't, I will advice, u stay away from both brothers before u become a bitch.

  3. Errrm, my lady, can I say first that the difference between us as humans n animals is that we r able to control our emotions. Its wrong by every standards for you to first "be in love" with a bloke , n next u r loving his bro ! I find that rather evil. My take is this ; pls let the family be ! Do not cause a rift btw brothers ! I beg of you.
    Gosh ! One Wld wonder wat some women do !

  4. this is really had o...but i feel u very well...think you should let u present boyfriend know about your feelings cos sharing things like this with him would do you both a lot of good. and for now just stop texting and calling the older brother till evry emotions is put in place properly. they say love knows no bound so u nevr can say. just be careful and use ur head not your heart babe.

  6. First, i think ur man's bro myt jst b interested in popping ur cherry, 2ndly, it myt jst b a bet with u as d price, 3rdly, it myt b real. For me, what i would do is tell my man cos thats d way my man n i operate. I could tell him anything even tell him who i am having a crush on and he is sooo mature abt it. After i've talked to him abt it, those feelings bgin to fade off gradually.

    Tell ur man how u feel n what has been going on n also how his brother responds to u n all. It just myt help.

  9. Babe!! What if it's a test between the two brothers to find out how loyal you are? Also, it could very well be that the older brother likes you because you're still a virgin. Honey, I see lust written all over this letter..on both sides. Try and avoid the older brother. With time these feelings will come to pass. Besides, what kind of brother is he if he's willing to take what belongs to his own blood brother. You should know that anything obtained through lustful eyes doesn't end well. Sweetheart, husband no dey again o. If you know what is good for you, you'll face the man God has blessed you with. With time these feelings shall come to pass. Goodluck.

  10. i can bet with you that the relationship with the older brother wouldn't last any longer. if she sees a finer person, she will also find another reason to go out with that person and leave the previous. let her learn contentment as a woman. if she doesn't want the younger brother, she better pull out of their family in as much she said she's not after their wealth, otherwise her little decision that she counts as nothing may turn around to claim any of the brothers' life. you may ask me how? WELL WHEN THE YOUNGER ONE KNOWS THE INTENTION OF HIS BIG BROTHER, THEY MAY BE ENEMIES FOREVER OR EVEN HARM THEMSELVES ALL BECAUSE OF A WOMAN. *so.....miss........ be sure of what you want in life.

    The good thing about the writer is that you know right from wrong but scared of doing right. To the extent you know you are cheating emotionally.
    My simple advice is "DO RIGHT". Right might be leaving the family alone which is the best advice i would give you now; for if you don't and you get married to anyone, any small issue faced in marriage the feeling and then it would be a greater taboo.

  23. *sighs* real dilenma. I have a question for you though! Have you felt anything close to this before meeting your BF's brother? Or shared any level of closeness with any other guy? There r moments in a relationship when we get dissuaded,and see only our innate desires. The trick is to stay focused on the things that endear us to that initial person (in this case, your BF). As they say, 'this too shall pass'.

  24. I had always known Linda was not making these stories up; considering that d pple involved are mostly nigerians in diaspora...smh...oyibo dey mess with their head.....anyways, my dear story teller, since none of them have popped d cherry, you r safe.....be sure you are not lusting after his elder bro and looking for lil faults with him. If you are sure you really love d elder one, save yourself d heartache of a depressing relationship and carefully inform your bf on the happenings......do it prayer fully cos kasala fit burst o.

  25. Swtrht,my own sincere advice 2 u is that u shld let d thought of gettn hooked wit either of d two guys go.I mean ur heart's unstable & 4 u nt 2 keep killing urself emotionally,u jst hv 2 get urself sumwhere neutral where u can hv a vry gud and hitch-free relationship.Goodluck to u.

  26. Both of you (the brother to ur boifrnd and you) are just a greedy type. Learn to love your guy and put his brother behind you. I will neva support such move for anything. Its a bad things and uncalled for...How do you want ur boifrnd to feel? U want to cause family commotion or u want two brothers to become an enemy for life. Abeg Madam if you know u dnt love him any longer then do away with two of them....U can not leave a guy bcos of his brother and go ahead to be dating dat same blood.

  27. its up to you,

    Which is more important? TRADITION OR YOUR HEART?

    The one u choose is the one you should follow!

    ReplyDelete
  28. OH wow.

    Babe, its obvious you dont really love the younger brother, because if you did, these feelings for the other one wouldnt transpire.

    As an Igbo girl myself, my best advice for you is to leave this family. I know its way easier said than done, but even if King Solomon was alive now, he would say the sane thing

    In the open heavens(if you read it, PASTOR E A ADEBOYES' daily devotional) of Sunday or Monday, it talked about EARLY WARNING SIGNS.

    GOD HAS ALREADY GIVEN YOU THE WISDOM TO SEEK COUNSEL, FOR IN THE MULTITUDE OF IT WISDOM PREVAILS.

    BUT ONE THING YOU SHOULD ALWAYS KNOW, IS THAT BLOOD IS MUCH MORE THICKER THAN WATER. IF YOU DO HAPPEN TOSLEEP WITH THE OLDER BROTHER, HE WOULD NEVER MARRY YOU, AND HE WOULD DEFINITELY TELL ALL THOSE WHO WANT TO KNOW ABOUT THE 'NONSENSE GIRLFRIEND HIS BROTHER BROUGHT HOME'

    GUYS WOULD DO, SAY AND TELL YOU ANYTHING, MAKE YOU FEEL SOOO COMFORTABLE AND RELAXED JUST TO GET YOU IN THAT VULNERABLE POSITION, HE IS OLDER SO HE KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT HE IS DOING. HE HAS NO REGARDS FOR HIS OWN BROTHER(HOW HE IS BEHAVING, SO PLEASE WHAT WOULD MAKE YOU THINK HE WOULD TREAT YOU LIKE A QUEEN)

    LASTLY, ITS OBVIOUS YOU DONT LOVE THE YOUNGER ONE, LOVE NEVER FAILS, AND THAT CANT BE SEEN IN YOUR CASE, PLEASE DONT STICK AROUND BECAUSE OF PROMISES OR BECAUSE OF SENTIMENTS HELD...SERIOUSLY...YOU WOULD ONLY END UP PUTTING YOURSELF IN A REALLY MESSY SITUATION.

  34. Girl, why don't u just wake-up from ur foolish dreams cos u and the older brother can never be even if u dump ur boyfriend. This guy's brother is clearly older and wiser and probably just wants to sleep with u, he's just toying with ur feelings and intelligence bcos he knows what u feel for him. What u feel for him isn't Love but mere Lust or Infatuation as the case may be. Please don't throw away ur precious 3yr relationship for mere uncertainty. Pls, I beg you, don't make the mistake of allowing him sleep with u. It will be the most foolish thing on earth if u do! I trust u'll listen to advise and with ur education achievements, I want to have lil Faith in you that u aren't stupid. A word, they say is enough for the wise, but I'm sure u've got more than a word from this advise....Plsssss "BE WISE!"

  35. 2things: It's either she's a slut, or she's a green horn in relationships. Cos any right thinking being knows what to do: Its a taboo (like she even acknowledged) to play with 2(wealthy) brothers. If she doesn't love the older guy, she should prove she aint gold digging by backing the fuck up out of the relationship. She's independent, young & hard working, there'd be like a million other guys out there that could match not just this younger guy's profile but her taste. I guess she's just being an Oliver :-)

  36. The sister must be a harlot! In any case! There two ways you can play this;have sex with the older brother,enjoy it to the very last drop! Then leave him and his younger brother and look for someone else entirely to marry! On the hand you can steer your heart and your vagina away from the older one and stay faithful to the younger one! You do not have to give in to the lust of your flesh! You are a woman and you must learn self control! You are very wrong to even key into the older brother by texting and gisting with him! Finally you might want to consider d fact that those feelings may never go away,what if u marry d younger one,will you be tempted to cheat?

  37. Stolen waters seem sweet. You are not in love with the Older brother but only infatuated. Speaking as an ex-player, My sincerest advise to you is to concentrate on your man. The older brother is only playing with your emotions. Why would he covet his brothers girlfriend. remember the 10 commandments...If he lacks the discipline to respect his brothers relationship, he will disrespect you. A word is enuf for the wise.

  38. HmmMmmmmm! I no know wetin to tell u o! Dis geh!

  39. You need to walk away from both of them. You obviously don't love the younger brother enough to have fallen for the elder one. Its hard no doubt, but u just have to walk away. Coz if u don't and u marry the younger one, u would have extra marital affairs with the elder one, either physically or emotionally and that will be worse. Fallen in love with your boyfriends friend is terrible enough talk more of his brother. It does not make u a slut or anything, sometimes we just can't help these feelings. So, take a long walk my dear

    ReplyDelete
  40. oh wow...the matters of the heart, quite complicated. You have to make a decision now before a decision is made for you. Your cultures' traditions seem to very important to you, from your write up you seem to want to keep your values and that why I would say you forget about the older brother. Don't do something you may regret or that would hurt people that you care about. Hard decision because your head is saying one thing and heart is doing another. Good luck girl :)

  44. You are playing with fire wo. Think about the division it will cause both brothers. Think of future family functions and how awkward it wud be. I think we are dealing with 3 young people here. Ur hormones are bouncing of the wall. You have seen too many twilight movies. It's better to leave both men alone. And shine ur eyes. These family may be testing u after all. Especially because of what the sister said. Run run run

    ReplyDelete
  45. Are you sure you are as educated as you claim? Sorry, I couldn't help but notice your claim of two Bachelors, Master's and now an MBA yet your story was laced with several bombs! Even the opening line. NA WA! Anyway, you can't leave one brother for the other, it may even be a test. Plus, his family will never allow the other one to marry you. He himself will not marry you after "taking" you from his younger brother. It's not done. Why did you even tell their sister? Do you think she hasn't blabbed to the whole family? This is very weird! Your whole story is super weird! Goodluck anyway

  48. Babe trust me when i say this is just a phase.......stay with the younger brother, who has been with you, because once you start dating the older one and allow him pop your cherry, both the older and younger would lose respect for you...take time out from the both of them and analyze your true feelings....it might even be lust for the older one.....be very caeful that is all....and also if your sure the younger one treats you well ...pls stick with him at least youve seen his true colours...

  61. You have a big problem...so if you suceed in being the older guy's woman,when you meet his friend or cousin who's cuter, you go weak...i suggest you work on urself and learn how to be contented with what you have and stop daydreaming. Truth is you should stop giving the elder brother the green light cos you will end up being the loser...he'll take what you cherish, dump u for leaving his younger bro 4 him and then also make sure his younger bro dosent take u back cos u ditched him 4 u.

  63. IMO, you are cheating on your boyfriend. Emotional cheating is cheating nonetheless (like i guess you know already).

    However, it wouldnt make any sense to go on with the younger guy (ur bf) even when your mind is somewhere else. That will be stringing the guy along and it isnt fair!

    I would suggest you sit down, ignore calls from the 2 of them for a while, while you REALLY EVALUATE what is going on in ur heart. Ask and answer these questions truthfully - What attracted you to your bf in the 1st place? what do u see in his brother that has gotten you head over heels for him? Do you think dumping your guy and going for his brother will make you happy for long (knowing you will be tearing a family apart)

    Pls dearie, it is better to walk away from this family with your head held high and your wits about you than dabbling in something as messy as leaving a younger brother for his older brother. Walk away girl, there will be another man for you. You sound real cultured and intelligent and you deserve a man who will love u so much just like you love him so much.

    PS- Why is this elder brother so wicked as to want to pry away his younger brother's girlfriend??? Think about that

  64. Dear Linda, whether you made this or not, whether the writers made them up or not. We always love stories!!

    But some words here is spinning in my head, like what is "Vcard" is it possible to have "butterflies" inside our belly?

    What else will love not do?:-)
    for advice? Check the Next answers. Me i don't have it now, after reading this, i feel there is "butterflies" in my head. Lol.

And also she doesn't want to leave d one she's been dating for d other. Soo the best thing is to stay clear frm the brothers.

    Dear LIB advice seeker, I quite agree with u that this situation is really disturbing. However, my candid advice to u is that you should use all your willpower to resist this temptation. At least u are aware that this older guy started getting close to u after he learnt that u still have ur vcard. I bet he is only fascinated by ur innocence and he is lusting after u. Presently, the older brother glitters like a piece of daimond, but I bet he is just the counterfeit of his brother.
    Think babe, how many men will date a virgin for this long and respect her wish not to lose it? This younger brother is the real diamond and he sees u as one too.

  73. Now that is some deep shit, will surely tear those guys apart o!! beta cure that love o or leave that family. i know how painful it is but u gotta let go sorta.Cos if u marry ur bf, its very possible that u will end up sleeping with the broda u are in love with.

    i also dont think i like the elder broda, its very bad to make moves on ur broda's gal. U need to open your eyes b4 its too late, wish u the best.

  74. I had the same issue but I decided to leave them both cos if u decide to go ahead with this, u are gonna divide the family, trust me they'll hate ur guts when it all ends. Just walk away with ur dignity or stick with ur own original boyfriend (younger bro).

  76. You said:

    You are less than 24 years old but with 2 bachelors, master and working on MBA. When did you start school?

    You are still a virgin. Okay.

    Your boyfriend is madly in love with you but he screws around with different girls. Do you know that is not love?

    Anyway, the older bro just wants to screw you and dump you. He knows that you are a virgin but with cheating attitude. You are screwing over his junior brother by carrying out an emotional affair so he will screw you and be done.

  77. One thing's clear here - you are infatuated. Best thing for you to do is to stop everything you have with that family, including your boyfriend and his brother.

  78. here's my take, since you haven't "done" anything with his brother and you are even ready to leave the family at this point; go ahead and break up with your bf.
    stay in touch with his brother u think u love, then start a relationship after about a yr easy!

    This moron claims to be working for a fortune 500 abroad and her English is very "local". Sorry. I have all my degrees abroad and you cannot find me writing like that, grammar, misspellings and naijaisms rife.

    ReplyDelete
  81. okay, let me tell it to you straight. they are brothers.Even if you like the younger brother,you cannot go after him because your selfish feelings will ruin the bond they have in their family. Dont let your emotions get the best of you.Stick to the elder brother who loves you. It seems you are questioning his faithfulness to validate your change of heart,which is just guilty conscience if you ask me. In my opinion, you are just physically attracted to the younger brother and that my dear is not love AT ALLLLLL! heeen open your ears and hear.Stick to what you have and appreciate it,good men who actually care for you are hard to come by.

  85. This is tough and i know sum! who was in the same predicament. My advise darling is that you should let that family be and move on. Because if u end up with your present bf u will still be avn strong feelings for his older brother which will b quite dangerous because what if sumthn happens one day and he visits u n ur bf and ur bf is not home..Just both of you in the house..my dear u can imagine wot might haooen..we are humans and our feeling tend to overtake us at tyms. On the other hand if u leave ur bf for his older broda u will be causing major conflicts btw two brodas and u sure wont want to be in that kinda situation...But if u can try n get ur mind off the older broda but if not my dear pls move on so as not to cause greater havoc in the future

    1) remember you are not from their tribe and any mistake you will be disgraced and kicked out so just respect yourself and respect dem for respecting your presence all this while.

    2) as your fellow ngwa sister,am glad you know it is taboo so better think of the after effect.

    3)both you and the elder bro mit just be lusting after each other bc wen you let him pop ya cherry then the scales will fall of your eyes and you will realize he a Casanova who is just interested in that ripe cherry bc he def move on

    4)it might be a test or bet BTW the elder bro and someone else dat he can get you to strip with his lovely charms

    5)i am pretty sure your family is together in unity and you love that so please don't do what will disunite another family else dem fit make you run mad.

    6)like i pointed earlier, you r just being controlled by LUST, yes , DEMON OF LUST so better give yourself reasons why you wont fall into that trap and you had better wake up bc you have been with this guy for 3yrs i think you said and its is just for the first tym you met the bro you now realize ur guy has flaws......hmmmm ejim chineke da riagi(lemme speak our lang)nwafo, biko ekwela k'ihere me gi n'ezin'ulo gi maka nwoke.

    7)the guy is young,vibrant,interesting,funny to be with...yes, but has it crossed your mind that he might have used this same charm on other ladies?have you asked how his r/ship is with other ladies?

    in conclusion, please look for a better reason to leave your guy that is if there is but if not, you had better caution yourself n hold ya cherry and stay with your man am glad you don't listen to rumors and gossip .......nwafo nwanne m, biko ejim chineke d'aria gi....no shame ngwa pips.

  94. This is a very tough one, because tradition and love is involved. well the writer seems very sincere about her feelings for the older brother,but she should be sure it aint just physical attraction(lust) because that one fades away fast. well i am a lady and to be honest, if two guys are inlove with me, i would go for the one that loves me more because thats how its ment to be. You will eventually learn to leave witout him and in this case the older brother is the fresh love will the younger brother is the old love and she claims the younger brother loves her more than she loves him. But she loved him very much until she meet a new exciting one. well the situation is complicated the best advice, listen to your heart, make sure(its not Nigerian club music that is playing there) and then follow it. During this process she should seek the lord in prayer.

  101. The earlier the better since you have shown you are not responsible enough and definately wont control ur feelings in the nearest future,then go for the other brother but NOT SECRETLY.

    ReplyDelete
  102. Wow my dear, it looks like you have a lot going on emotionally but my advise to you is that you should break off your relationship wt your current boyfriend since the feelings you have for him isn't strong enough to put off feelings for someone else, much more his older brother.

    Something isn't just right about the whole thing.

    Before you start any other relationship, take a deep look into yourself & know for you, if its Love or Lust. Can it stand the test of time & the challenges of a distant relationship.

    Weigh the consequencies, good & bad before you think of going for his brother.But be aware also that his brother may have noticed all the non verbal vibes from you & may be toying with your emotions.

    Finally the decision lies with you. Do what's best for you as well as all concerned. Don't be the cause of any rift in the family
    you won't enjoy the relationship like that.

  103. Hmmmm..... I smell trouble in 3D. You better transfer your lust and emotions for the younger brother to the older one or stay away from the family if you cannot control yourself else you'll eventually loose. Igbo men don't choose woman over their family. BE WARNED!!!

  108. Madam! Quick question, if you see another man that has the same kind of things you like in your boyfriend's brother, would you go for him too? You are in control of your emotions and feelings, don't make it look as if your emotions put a rope on your neck and is dragging you about, that you can't make rational decisions or think straight. Sista, a word is enuff for the wise, forget about having feelings for the brother and focus on your boyfriend and build your relationship with him. I rest my case.

    ReplyDelete
  109. U should just leave that family alone or you will surely divide it either way if you marry your man what's to say you won't cheat with his brother later on and if you go for the older brother, your man will never forgive his brother much less you. As for your man, I think it is over between you two.

    Don't do it behind your man,tell him if you know you can afford to loose him when he says no,then if he says yes that u should go ahead with his brother then good for u,but in all u must jokingly discuss it with ur man like " Mehn na wa o that ur elder brother make sense o,I fit fall for am If I no know u" just something that will send a message to ur guy, then some younger brothers do accept to let go for the elder brother sake,I have seen that happen before where a younger brother in Nigeria gave his elder brother from Germany his girl friend bcos the family were looking for a wife for him since he has been in Germany ,but if your man says no and feel bad about your joke then its a sign to back off his elder brother pls ,don't go for his brother behind his
    back And I must tell you to be careful bcos you never can tell maybe it's test or setup just to know who u are but if it's not then tell ur guy with joke and see his response. Stop chatting and texting with his elder brother bcos he may save them or his younger brother (ur boyfriend ) may get to see them. Choose one,either you leave the family alone if u can't stand your boyfriend again bcos you couldnt get the brother or you continue with him afterall you said both Of u love each other . And if u have made up ur mind to give up on ur bf no matter what,then let him n the family no and if they refuse you can leave them all alone and move on afterall it won't hurt u bcos u were thinking of leaving the family alone. Good luck

  117. Dear Lady,

    I know that you will be chastised by many. But i am proud of you and your achievements and will give you honest advise. No one deserves to be unhappy for ever. You have not slept with the younger brother so break up nicely with him. Do not go chasing the elder brother, wait patiently and see if he will come for you. Whatever you decide to do, you will be the enemy so you must be ready for it. What i wont support is you keeping one brother and having liaisons with the other. Just break off with the younger and something tells me the older will come especially as he know you did not sleep with his brother. Don't be too quick to do anything with him because you need to be sure of his intentions. Take it real slow and easy and if he is yours, it will all work out. You are a good girl, take care.

  121. I don't understand how this person has 2 degrees and their written English is so poor. I'm just going to assume she was writing in a more relaxed manner for the email lol.

    Anyways, my advice won't give you a definite answer for what you should do but hopefully it will help make your decision process easier.

    I'd advise you to just list out the choices you can make as well as the potential outcomes with each choice. So basically if your choices are: stay with your current boyfriend, dump him for his brother, or dump him & cut off contact with his family, what are the pros and cons of each of those choices and most importantly which one would you prefer.

    You have to be realistic with yourself about what would REALLY happen in each case and not just what you would ideally like to happen and then make a decision.

    Hope that helps

  130. You should leave your boyfriend, and deliberately distance yourself from his brother.

    If after a while ie after you boyfriend is over the break up and has moved on, and the elder brother is still interested, ask him to talk to his younger brother about it! Simple. I don't see how this should break any family apart and as long as you weren't shagging the younger brother its not so terrible. #wotiwoulddo

  149. my dear, if your story is true and you really want some good advice, i will say, let that family go. 1. its a dangerous thing to love two brothers and 2, at the end you will be the one to be put to shame cos you will end up being the cheat, liar and gold digger which you are not. my advice, break up with the younger brother, end all communication with the older and if you are asked why you did, be honest and tell them.

  150. u know what john depp said about relationship like this "if you feel love for 2 guys @ d same time, choose the 2nd because if you had loved the 1st one, u'll not give d 2nd one a chance @ all" while i wld v wanted u to give d 2nd a chance but they r brothersssss, oh NO how i wish they r something else, maybe friends, then u'll know they can never be friends again, but this is family, u might v to move far away from d family or u stay wt ur #1 bloke and forget about the brother moreover, are u sure ts not infatuation????? cause love and infa sounds alike but there is a huge difference

  153. Doubt this babe's educational qualifications. That's a barefaced lie and its quite obvious. But she may actually work for a fortune500 company. After all, etisalat is one.
    I think the best thing to do is to let it all go. If you make the mistake of giving in to the older brother, you will only have yourself to blame. Nothing's impossible but i just don't see things remaining the same if you choose to stay with your boyfriend and fight this tempation. You seem very vulnerable now to this older brother and since you are a strong, independent and educated woman and possibly a looker too, you should have no problems coping.
    Wish you luck.

  154. If you're not in love with your boyfriend then walk away from their family with your dignity intact. Put yourself in your boyfriends shoes...how would u feel if someone did that to you? Dating the older brother is a non starter. In future you'll be glad you didn't give in to temptation.

  155. Sleep with both of them after that you will know the one you truly love!... Lmao!!!

    Seriously for your own good just run away from them because if you stick to your boyfriend you will always still have feeling for the brother. MAKE BAD TIN NO GO HAPPEN FOR BACK AFTER YOU DON MARRY YOUR BOYFRIEND FINISH O I DEY WARN YOU!!!

  156. Heres my take ...Writer i cant believe you kept your cherries this long only to consider popping it in a foolish way..you might aswell have popped it when you were 13-15 cos right now thats the childish, dumb, school girl decision your about to make..if you were raised morally right as you kept on emphasizing then this shouldn't even be a public debate, those so called seeds of culture and moral standards instilled in you should violently be shouting NOFREAKINGWAYINHELL and thats the BOTTOMLINE. Never Ever think you have the right to use your "area" regardless of how NEW/USED it is + your selfish lustful emotions to scatter another mans house-hold no matter how greedy certain members of the household maybe. I'm NOT even trying to be disrepectful...but hey sis Shine ur Eyez and wake up outta this foolishness *hiss*

  162. First of all, permit me to say...impressive resume.

    Hey gal, you said it yourself that you respect tradition. In Naija, to really marry, I mean to really really marry, You have to be married to the family. So my notes

    1. What happened to you is not a new thing at all. It happens all the tym; boyfriend's best friend, boyfriend's sisters' friend, boyfriend's elder brother, boyfriend's uncle..catch my drift?

    2. No matter what you think you have in your hand, there is always something that looks better outside

    3. Loving someone is a decision, not a feeling. Love is a verb, not a noun. What you are feeling now is the noun, its totally eros(lust)

    What you are feeling for the elder brother might not be real. even if it is, you cant go ahead to act on it because the family would never accept you. This is reality and not hollywood movie.

    Also, the fact that you ve begun to look for flaws in the younger brother implies that you cant continue with him. Leave the family and detoxify yourself emotionally. Babes, be wise.

  163. Situations like this require tough love and i think Anon April @5 10:07 AM has said it all. "Errrm, my lady, can I say first that the difference between us as humans n animals is that we r able to control our emotions". You should never have entertained these 'feelings' in the first place. Plus did you say their sister knows? LOL! Girl waka, you need to dump both brothers fast like hot amala! Shame you've ruined your relationship but there is no way it can work now that there is this brother factor in the game. If he doesn't know by now, he'll find out sooner than later and dump your arse!

  164. sincerely,my best advise to you at this critical period is to sit down and take the next small step,talk to yourself and tell yourself the damn truth.From all indications,ur lusting after the older bro,and this i tell you would fade away before you know it.Stick with the younger brother whom you've been dating,u neva can tell,like someone said the older might just want to pop ur cherry n it could also be a bet btwn the two brothers.How do you know the younger brother doesnt even know about the exchange of text messages that's been going on,so gurl.....think twice and real hard.
    Good luck!!!

  165. I think you feel u r still young and u still dey town

    thats y u hv one and can also see another. you are

    probably not ready for marriage. let me ask you a

    question what if u are married already and you just

    met ur bro inlaw would you fall for him? the thing

    is we all have tendencies to do more than one man

    as women and same thing goes for men but you

    have to be disciplined!! if u hv been thru rough

    times searching u would stick to one as long as it

    works and pls dont sweet talk us wif rumors of how

    ur boyfriend womanise.

  166. Babe, i feel u....my suggestion, dump both of them and try to get ova the bro!! Firstly, u cant marry someone you dont love, Secondly, a relationship with d bro would not work either cos the family will never accept dis "following our hearts" bull shit!...u sound like a nice girl, dont worry, u will love again.

  167. Girl, I have been in the same situation. My bf suspected it first and ask me but i lied(professional lie). I told him im not flirty or having any feelings for his bro. He said his bro acts strange wenever i call him. he'll go anoda place to anser his phone.i was confused and i kmw i was doing the wrong thing. so oneday, i called his elder bro, told him what my bf said abt him and he was laffing..said he is still young and we both are young..my bf is my age-mate and his bro is two years older than us. when d elder bro says he wants to make luv to me...my reply will be lol or i will laugh. stop calling his brother and tell ur bf d truth. the feelings for his bro will stop tho not immediately. i use to call his bro like everyday but now it doesnt happen. lolz my bf gave me restrictions sef. he said i shouldnt talk to his brother or male cuzins, i didnt do it wen he said so but i stop doing by God grace. pray abt it. I was force to admit to his elder bro dat im in luv wit my bf. and he said" we are brothers,no matter what, i wouldnt hurt my brother"so bcareful girl.Also, my bf knws i will talk a guy if he is fine. so he always ask me,who i had crush on evryday. yes i tell him the truth. will decribe the guy and he'll like omg stop babe.

  169. My advice for you is to leave that family alone in peace.you are infatuated with the elder one which clearly states you don't love the younger one again..Please Go away. If you still go on decieving ur present bf and he ends up marrying you.you would one day spread your legs for his brother and then you will be doomed for life.period

  171. ahhaha my own question to her is if this happened to her own brothers how would she feel and what would she do ehh. don't do what you don't want others to do to you to them or else it is cruel and wicked.

    so my advice to you is leave them alone as if you eventually marry either of them you would always have a greedy mind as to if i had know thought okay. so leave them alone and find someone else as you are still in your 2wenties and young finito

  172. Take a bold step and have sex with your boyfriend hun. ( this your V card or no V card you sound like you own a dildo)
    1) you might end up sealing the deal and you two becoming one.
    2) If the older brother is still interested after that
    - he is sick
    - might really love you
    - and Sorry babe. Vodka works, but after that try a tattoo saying "YOLO"
    3) there might be no chemistry with you and and the younger brother.
    - Tequila this time booboo. May be flaming absinth either way you're screwed
    - Many more fish in the sea and maybe a tattoo saying 'once beaten twice shy"


    sha sha avoid ruining the family. If your heart is really with the older brother, you don't love the other. Let go and let love charms takes you somewhere that the relationship would start and end in peace. Avoid the drama now before you say 'i do'.

    Goood luck lovey

  173. This is going to end bad regardless and since you havent F*d yet which is really f*d up (Im a female speaking) you should have experimented along time ago. Just pick one of the bros and F---sha. You make the decision no matter what it wont work so as long as your happy with your decision. Life is short, You only live once, your young, you'll learn.

  177. LIB Haters sha: advice you cant give, instead youre busy poking holes at the girls qualifications.
    ever heard of double majors? one year masters. Thats just 5 years, while the haters are still writing JAMB.

    Anyways, back to the main story:
    your INFATUATION with the older brother is strong because its taboo

    If you're a christian i suggest you read the story of Amon and Tamar

    2. Its better to be with a guy who is madly in love with you than one who you're madly in love with., but if he's busy chasing girls all over in your absence sha...

    I think you need to search yourself and ask yourself whether you really love your boyfriend, if you do, then put everything into making sure it works.

    If you dont, break up with him, allow some time before you even consider dating older bro, but be prepared to lose both.

    PS: You can NEVER come between the two brothers. YOU will be the one to lose out.
    Whatever you do, do NOT let the older brother pop your cherry.

    ReplyDelete
  178. First of all, I admire your qualifications as well as being independent and stuff like that, but this is my candid advice: take an elevator to a sky rise building (because taking the stirs will make you (change your mind) and when at the top, jump with your head first and I ASSURE you, you shall get the answer you seek before you touch the ground. As for those of you sounding religious and stuff, how could you even advice that she takes this to God, is it not sinful enough?!

  179. As it is now, tori don worwor....CARRY YOUR KAYA AND LEAVE THAT FAMILY....the moment you told their sister, you officially ended the relationship...2 bachelors and masters on d way and you're still dis dumb? Wow, common sense is really not common. The brodas r testing your small brain, and you have failed already. What if either of them is an ARDENT LIB reader, you think dey won't know you? Foolish geh! You av a man who could respect your vcard for three years and you want to throw it away over smelly lust...smh...I'm 25, still a virgin and I can assure you, if I get hold of your kind of bf, I'm not letting him go for anything. A word is enuf for even a foolish girl that wants to be wise..................btw GBOSA! You are a brilliant chap.

  180. love has its twists and turns and the heart definitly conjures stuff up.its best to leave both of them and move on with your life,cos even if you get married to the present one,you will make out with the other compounding your problems.if its not about the money,then move on babe.

    ReplyDelete
  181. Just came to my mind that this might be a set-up for the girl in question... since the family is so rich, they prolly want to make sure that you are not in for the $$$$... and that their sisters 'go with the one that gets the most share of property" is SCARY.

    The bible says.... FLEE from all appearances of evil. There is no point deceiving yourself dearie... FLEE else you cause trouble in a peaceful home.

  182. Omg! you guys are always quick to crucify! Quick to judge...why? the way our heart works...is unpredictable. If you cannot advise, then read and pass. You do not have to comment on any post. Lady, I dont think you should go ahead and marry if you do not LOVE the person you're going to marry. That said, I dont think you should go ahead with the other brother or even cause a rift in the family. The wahala dat comes after is not worth it at all. If you think you have a good man, share your story with him DIPLOMATICALLY. If he loves you, I believe he would understand and trust me when you do the feelings begin to fade off. I used to tell my ex about my crushes, I dont think it went down well with him though...anyways he's ex now but doing so helped me to overcome the feelings i had for the other person. Also pray about it. God answers prayers no matter how stupid they sound!

  183. My dear young lady. As you are in your early 20s,I doubt if you really know what being in love is.That you have two masters degree and an MBA at 20/24, does not mean that you are matured enough to understand the matters of the heart.When, during your first degree,two masters and MBA did you have the time to assuage your sexuality, or was your love based on the theories you read or watched in movies?Your descriptive explanations of the guy you are lusting after showed that you have failed to look at the real ingredients that sustains a relationship.You are immature and need to grow up.I suggest you focus more on growing up and realize the true meaning of shared values in relationship,instead of the lustful feelings that you are getting right now,which no doubt will fade away.My suggestion???None of the two dudes deserve you for you are still very young to comprehend what love is.
    'Money,inheritance,independence,certificates et all....these things, you can manipulate or change....when you find love for real, you don't see all these things'....Ask me for advice whe you are in your late middle 20s middle 30s and then we can talk.For now,enjoy the new phase of life that you are entering.....
