Have you ever been in that situation or know anyone who has been in that situation? Two brothers in love with the same woman, and the other brother dating the woman that the other brother is in love with. How stressful would that situation be?
I have never personally been in his situation but have known two sisters who fought over a man.
The situation was honestly pretty gross...
One was married to him oblivious to her sister and husbands feelings for each other. It eventually blew up once **** started catching the wind in the right direction.
Yes, my father and my uncle regularly fought over the same women. They were identical twins and rather competitive with one another... but still spent most of their adult lives as bachelors living together.
Not exactly the same thing, but I know casually a man who is divorced because his brother slept with his wife at the time. They don't talk anymore. I am sure something similar happens with sisters too. Some people are just full of drama.
As another poster said, it would be a very sad situation. People who lack emotional control and values and don't have healthy boundaries. I don't believe in an attraction that is so strong that people lose it, start developing feelings and maybe even act on it. People have a head on their shoulders and they should use it. There are many moments when you realise that you are falling for someone and can do something to stop that. Besides, there are millions of other men/women in this world and going for your brother's or sister's partner is weak, wrong and selfish.
The consequences for everyone involved and the rest of the family can be tremendous and the harm that is done can never be repaired. I bet when the attraction and the infatuation starts fading, because it always does, those people wish they could turn back the time, take control of their feelings, think with their heads, sacrifice that strong attraction and do everything differently, but in situations like that there aren't second chances for fixing things with a whole family that has been divided.
People who do that condem themselves to losing their whole family's support and live for the rest of their lives in isolation and full of guilt. We simply can't have everything we want in life and we shouldn't, this including people and relationships. We aren't here to have all our wished fulfilled, but to learn to discriminate between right and wrong, find the power to make sacrifices and become stronger, wiser and greater people.
I have a female cousin who married my sister's ex husband almost immediately after they divorced. They lived far away from her in another state. It was bizarre. She was also known to sleep with another of our first cousins. I do not know what was wrong with her, but her mother and their people were a bit batty and not quite "all there" (if you catch my drift). They were, I would say, on the ignorant side.
