| very sad okayy ... so last night when i got home from my retreat, my mom called me into her room and sat me down and told me absolutely heartbreaking news. she told me that my brother and his girlfriend broke up. now some of you are probably saying "so?" or "thats their situation", but theres other things behind the situation. im at the end of eighth grade, and matt(21 now) and his girlfriend, Shawn(18 now), got together about 2 weeks before i went into sixth grade. we clicked immediately, and have spent every weekend together since, with or without matt. i dont have a sister, so shes the closest thing i have. i look up to her and respect her with all of my heart. now, nothing is going to be the same. im going to miss her coming over at 10 in the morning on saturday and leaving at 11, just to do it again the next day. if matt and mike weren't home and i was bored, she would bring over our favorite movie (the notebook) and we would watch it a few times. im going to miss the times she pops up at my cheering games just to watch me perform, and the times she shows up at my house before work just to make plans for us for after work. i know i should still be able to hang out with her and all that, but she wont be able to show up where matt is because that would be very awkward for them. (and im usually with matt, so thats no help) theres another less-selfish reason this breakup breaks my heart. Matthew is my best friend and i love him so very much. seeing him sad makes me want to stop the world just to make it right for him. i dont care how gushy that sounds: I LOVE MY BROTHER . this morning i heard him in the hallway, so i went to say good morning to him and all that, then he told me to meet him in his room in like 5 minutes. he seemed very chipper and cheery(he prob. knew i knew what happened, but didnt say anything). i was almost worried at what he had to talk to me about. i was in his room and it was very awkward, which i never feel when im alone with him. i guess he didnt want to talk about it right away, and i was in no position to bring it up. he just asked about confirmation (hes my sponsor) to immediately change the subject, i assume. but then, as i answered his question, he started crying. i have only seen him cry about 5 times in my whole life because he figured he had to stay strong in front of me so i would do the same.i consoled him all that i could when he was crying. i told him everything was going to be okay and we just talked from 7:30 to 10:45 . i even started crying because in my heart, i knew there was nothing i could do about it. im sorry this is so long everyone, i just never thought i'd see the day come that they would split apart. thank you for reading. any comments would be appreciated.

| Awww, sending hugs sweetie! It sounds like you have a wonderful brother and you are a great sister! Maybe in time you'll be able to hang out with his ex again.

| Aww Kelli, I'm so sorry to hear this news! I hope that you and your brother's ex can still remain close friends-it might be difficult for them to see each other at first, but in time, it will get easier. Maybe they will even end up friends after awhile Know that you are helping your brother by being there for him during this difficult time.

Donating YT 30K Club Member | I am so sorry. You sound so mature and caring. It is hard to watch a loved one go through this. I understand as a mother my dtr who was 19 at the time here BF of almost 4 years broke up with her out of the blue, he had practically lived at my house. My heart broke for her and one day she called me on my cell phone I was out taking care of my FIL and said can you come home. I came home and she just lost it. Her and I laid on my bed crying and sobbing. It takes a lot of time to get over that heartbreak and your loss of a "sister". Just try and be there to listen to your brother when he feels like talking. It sounds like you have a very loving and supportive family and that will help him through this.

| Aww, reading your post made me cry. Just b/c you're SUCH a wonderful sister and it sounds like you and your brothers are such good friends. You're so very lucky in that! And it's apparent that your brother loves you too; how he includes you in everything, and wants to talk to you about it; he obviously trusts you with his deepest feelings. That kind of trust is very special and very difficult to come by. I know this is the sad thing about relationships; sometimes they last and sometimes not...but you never know....maybe things will work out for your brother and his gf.....they're both young and sometimes you just need to get out and do your own thing for awhile before you realize how much you truly love and care about someone. It wouldn't be the first time! What a special relationship you have with his gf (or ex, I guess). I know what it's like b/c I had older uncles and they got married. One of the wives was like my hero~ smart, beautiful, funny, and so worldly (to me when I was in 9th grade)...and she hung out with me. It was so hard for me when they split up....but we've remained friends thru all these years. Sometimes you just have to give it a little time. Let her know how much her friendship has meant to you and how much you cherished it. Sometimes it's the little things we let other people know that makes them see the bigger picture too. I hate when stuff happens and it bursts the nice little bubble we live in sometimes! You've got a great group of people around you, and you've lost a relationship too. And I bet they feel badly about it for you. Just try to maintain both friendships~ your brother and his gf. All the best ~

| Awwww, hugs to you. That's a real grown up break up because it affected more than just the two of them, huh? But as was said previously - both of them are obviously so mature, so the awkwardness will subside between them, and you and she will be able to resume your friendship one day. I'm so sorry.........

| That is so sad. You both sound like you are very special. Maybe things will work out. If not, you guys always have each other and maybe you will still have Shawn as a special friend. (hug)
