How Do I Get My Brother To Unblock Me?

[fonduegirl]

storytime!!! my brother was being creepy with his crush and after reviewing I told him to cool it down and at first he was furious but reading their recent chats, it seems he's decided to follow through my advice. anyways! we were discussing her this morning and he said she has allegedly read crime and punishment and I'm like, ain't no fkn way and again he got mad bc he thinks I was being pretentious intellectual and excluding his future girlfriend from reading and I'm like, that's so not the case, she's just not a serious reader, why can't you listen? I can bet you she hasn't read a word of classics! —

just saw her post how zade meadows is her valentine. a fictional character who r words the main character, the most beloved guy on commercial side of book fandom, i. e. booktok... i messaged my brother with a "see?" and he just blocked me out of the blue.

i never said she doesn't have hobbies or her personality is by product of marketing slop, i never said those things! I only said her taste is basic, which he can't get offended on. like why is he being sensitive? she's superficial and it's quite common in this era

Sounds like your brother is irrationally protective of a girl he's not even dating. That's what having a crush will do. Your only option is to keep your opinions to yourself. Let your brother find out for himself. Or not. His life. His choices. His problems.

He's a sweetheart but sometimes he can be a real brat.

Why are the most evil people also the funniest?

Some people are sensitive to criticisms towards people they're romantically interested in. He will probably come around and unblock you on his own. I don't think you said anything that went too far

You’re not wrong

[fonduegirl]

Thanku!

If he's sensitive, then don't attack him for it. It sounds like your quest to convince your brother it became more about being right and he had some feelings that you didn't know about. It's better to let the idea be out there while having a humility to be an open to be in wrong.

In other words, apologizing for pushing it so hard would be a good idea. And then let him come to the realization on his own.

Being right doesn't help you with relationships. All he sees is you talking shit about his girlfriend. How is this hard to understand?

[Kaneki05]

Ya don't, he's going to pick her in that argument because guys are defense for girls they like

[AngryCarl3]

Aw, your brother is in love. He'll have to get over that before he listens to his big sis again. Sometimes you just have to let people make their own mistakes.

Tell him to get over it and give him a noogie

I'm a trapped liberal, man x

[Maybe_Maybe_not]

Maybe, but in that case, you're just a nosey snob 😏

[fonduegirl]
