    Step away from the situation. I had a friend who did this and there was so much crap that stemmed from it. There was a LOT of drama and a lot of hurt. Just... walk away.

    Generally speaking, if you feel uncomfortable enough about something that you have to ask, "is this bad?", it's bad.

    Never date an ex's brother. Don't be a Paris Hilton!

    If you are asking the question, then you already know it will cause problems. But if you just don't tell his brother, does that really make it okay? That is a juvenile stance to take.

    If lil' brother already had you on his lap and you already kissed him, just go on and get it out of the way. Sounds like the whole situation is already dysfunctional anyhow.

    Whatever you do, make sure you do a new thread and tell us how it works out for you...k? K.

    They probably both won't be that hurt because they'll just come to the conclusion that you're easy anyway. I bet he already told his brother about it and I'm sure he said something along the lines of "yeah bro go for it, just make sure to wrap it up with her...never know with that one"

    This.

    This is why I've taught my two sons the phrase: bros before hoes. Family is forever, and you ought not to be messing with that.

    If Mike got married....and Lance had a very long heart to heart with Mike, and EVERYONE and I mean everyone pertinent to the situation was in the loop, and Mike truly, honestly didn't care, maybe it would be ok for something to happen. And even in that situation it's only a maybe. But if you're just looking for a roll in the hay. A little affair. A little funsy. Please don't do it. You can do irreparable damage to family members. Look, I definitely love my brother, but even now we still fight occasionally. The last thing in the world you want is for someone to say, (in a fit of anger), oh by the way, I banged your ex-girlfriend. You've now turned family holidays for the next 10 years into something to be dreaded. Don't do it, it's not worth it.
  • My usual advice is this:


    If you have to ask, you already know the answer.

    That's SO mean to your ex. There are like a trillion guys in the world. Don't go for your ex's brother! I thought that was more common sense haha x

    Not a good idea. Especially since you said you're not looking for anything serious. You might have a nice time, but you could seriously damage the two brothers' relationship. Be responsible and walk away.

    iv been in a similar situation... only older brother, who id never met as the ex's brother but met him in a bar, still couldnt decide if it was weird or not when we figured it out though...

    This happened between my two uncles when they were young; it was never the same afterwards, these days they don't actually speak at all (different reasons, but it was already cold). It sounds similar really, the older brother was quieter, more book-smart, the younger a popular, easy going sort who got the girl.

    Friends are bad enough, for a bit of fun it's definitely not worth it in my opinion. And if it WERE something you wanted to seriously commit to, I agree with earlier posters that say you should talk to your ex about it first..

    That's just skanky. Don't cause friction between brothers like that, especially since it just for "fun". Plenty of cute guys out there to have fun with.
