“She’s ridiculous. I can’t imagine giving two shits if my boyfriend was playing online with women, whether they’re women in cyberspace or meatspace or both. If he’s done something to make me mistrust him, I won’t date him. If he’s not done so, then I don’t really care. If he’s having fun and he’s happy and healthy, then I’m happy. Now, if your brother wants to be with this woman, that’s his choice. But you don’t have to get dragged into that. You were honest in a respectful manner, and laid out boundaries, and then stayed out of their relationship. You’ve done nothing wrong, not towards others and not to yourself. NTA” ♀️
