  • WTF - My Sister Is Chatting with My BF on MSN

    My younger sister added my boyfriend on MSN.

    The first weird thing about this is that she doesn't have any contact with him other than me. My BF and I have been in a long distance relationship for four years now; we're both currently 18 and my sister is 16. I find it rather weird that all of a sudden, not finding out from either of the two, that they have added each other on MSN.

    The second weird thing is that my sister couldn't have gotten his email unless she went onto my MSN to look for his address...and subsequently lied about how she found it.

    Weird thing number three: They talked without my knowing...it's just weird! I don't think your siblings would go out of their ways to find out your GF/BF's email, add him or her and chat. I wouldn't do it, anyway.

    Do you talk to your sibs' significant others either online or on the phone? How would you feel if this happened to you - do I have a reason to be creeped out?

    Yeah you have a reason to be creeped out, more though because your boyfriend didn't tell ya.
    Maybe it's a secret on the good side though, what do I know surprise party or something. But in general, quite suspicious.

  • goD_I_V_Aunc10@xanga

    Oh heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeyal naw!

  • Dare2BDiferentt@xanga

    If you don't feel comfortable with it, confront HIM about it and tell him you don't like it. End of story.

  • AnonymousBlonde@xanga

    Confront them both.  That's what I'd do in the situation - you definitely have a right to know what's going on.

    My last boyfriend had two much younger siblings (we're talking at least 12 years younger than us) that I'd occasionally talk to on the phone, but it was mostly limited to me asking them about their day and how they were/school was before they went and gave the phone to their brother (aka my boyfriend). 

  • TheSpaceBass@xanga

    If I were you I would be uncomfortable. I mean, if you had a brother and he was doing this then I would see no reason for alarm, but this is not the case. 

  • Two_of_Six@xanga

    I talk to my brothers wives when they are together but I don't talk to them online or on the phone unless they are looking after my kids, or I have a need to contact them. We  don't chat casually except when the family is all together. I have never done what your sister did when my brothers were dating. It wouldn't feel right, you don't do that sort of thing. The fact that they hid that they were chatting is odd, you got to ask yourself whether or not theres a reason behind this sudden chatting between them. Do you trust them both? I think its very strange.

  • DistantStarlight@xanga

    Hmm, that does sound suspicious!


    My sister chats with my fiancé online sometimes, but they're practically family and she's five years younger than us with her own interests so it's totally not weird. Mostly their convos consist of, "LOL check out this youtube video!" "HAHAHA" Silly stuff.
  • TheHiddenRose86@xanga

    Actually, that is quite strange. I know that my ex and my sister hardly ever talked and I've never even met my sister's boyfriends. Maybe that is just our family, but it does seem strange. I would confront both of them and ask why they need to talk to each other. It seems like that would be the right thing to do. 

  • immaairheadxl@xanga

    I mean, it's different if she's tryna get at him.


    Maybe she's just tryna be a good sister and tell him he better treats you good.


    Ever thought of that? Cus shit, if my siblings had a bf/gf, I don't mind talking to them!!

  • caminjammers@xanga
  • MangoWOW@xanga

    I would feel uncomfortable about it!
    This is especially weird timing. I just broke it off with my fuck buddy last week because I found out him and my sister were talking. My sister is fine because it was totally innocent on her part, but he admits to me that he was, in fact, hitting on her. Which is a no-no in my book.

  • CrisaRei@xanga

    I'd be slightly worried, but my boyfriend's sister contacted me over myspace. =D All my boyfriends' sisters did that. Ex-boyfriends, anyway. I don't think it's weird. The again, i'm just friendly.


    But yeah, if I knew my boyfriend was talking to my sister without knowing, I'd confront him. 
  • spanz@xanga

    Just confront them both. It's odd that your boyfriend wouldn't tell you about this... but then again, maybe your sister is just doing it to tell him not to hurt you. THEN AGAIN... why would she say it if you guys are already 4 years in? But yeh, lol, talk to her & him.
    I talk to my brother's girlfriend on the phone sometimes and whenever she comes over with my brother. We all know each others families, so it really isn't weird.

  • Fluxuater@xanga

    I would do it. But probably not in such a creepy fashion, though I would of met them first at least... I'd be kinda weirded out if my little sister added my boyfriend.

  • yourblondeness@xanga

    Maybe they are doing a collabo on some sort of surprise for you. Do you have something special coming up..bday, anniversary, graduation?

    Just ask them about it. It's only MSN, maybe they are just trying to be friendly. I am friends with my brother's fiancee on Facebook.

  • a_single_raindrop@xanga

    lol she could be talking you up to him or telling him to treat you nicely. He isn't saying anything about it? Then ask him.


    My boyfriend and my sister don't like each other. I think it's because my sister realizes how much he means to me and is jealous, and my boyfriend thinks my sister is spoiled too much (which is true). haha

  • OverratedxLiesxAnna@xanga

    Yeah I would be creeped, more like mad because you had to find out without one of them telling, but then again your boyfriend probably thought that it wasn't a big deal, so he didn't tell you.


    I think you should just talk to your sister and boyfriend about it.

  • ibite_for_life@xanga

    I can't say I know from experience, but just talk to your boyfriend. Don't be confrontational about it, but casually ask him what he and your sister talk about. I wouldn't be too worried about it, though. If it turns out things are happening you don't know about, dump him. Your sister will always be your sister, but boys come and go.


    There's a very good chance they're just being friendly. Whenever my brother brings a girl home [there have only been a few - his ex-fianceé and his current gf he just moved in with] or I bring home a new boy, we all chat and such. There are stories that get told between siblings and SO that might not be said, and they may help him to find new ways to surprise you if she tells him you used to love a certain kids movie or something of the sort.


    Like I said, just ask him what they talk about and you can ask her, too, depending on your relationship with your sister.

  • pillowpixies@xanga

    I agree with the second comment, honestly.

    It seems like she went through a ton of trouble to get his address.

    Then, after all of that trouble, neither of them mentions it.

    If he and her never talk unless you're together, wouldn't he wonder why she was suddenly talking to him - therefore ask you about it?

    So, I do think you have a reason to be suspicious. Ask her, ask him. Don't get upset over it because you never know if anything is honestly going on. But yeah, that is.. weird.

  • bluntcrayon@xanga

    i started talking to my boyfriend (now ex)'s brother because i wanted to get birthday gift ideas and to plan his brithday. now that we've broken up, i still chat to his brother once in a while. but it's not like i have any interest in him.

  • steph

    It's not strange to talk to a SO's siblings, although if he is the only person on her list, that's kinda weird. I would also be kinda suspicious. Ask your boyfriend what he and your sister talk about.

  • UnopenedSuitcases@xanga

    i'd be a little iffy if it happens. But it depends on what's being said. Confront them...

  • jiaying28@xanga

    OMG....luckily i only have 1 brother....haha...

  • XxWiltedRosexX@xanga

    Confront him about it.


    Though he might be planning a suprise for you other something.
