It's hard to be my brother's keeper.
My older brother is going through a divorce. After ten years of marriage, she seems to have become one flat assed bitch. Right now my brother is staying with me, sleeping on my couch while he puts a few pay checks together and is able to rent his own place. Should be in a couple more weeks. It's totally cool him staying with me, but I do wish he would make a better effort in getting laid. From our talks, he's still bummed about his impending divorce even though he realizes that his life is starting to get better. He is a good guy with plenty of friends but he won't take advantage of his new found freedom to date. I tell him, dude you know some really awesome single women. You need to get out there and mingle. He'll take a woman out, tell me he had a great time, but then he won't follow up with her. I worry that when he moves to his own place in a couple of weeks he'll just hide away from women. Maybe I worry too much? Is he acting normal? Has he become damaged goods? Is it too soon to start another relationship for him? Yeah, it is his life, but I just can't stand by and watch him build a wall around himself. Maybe because it's so unlike him.
