His Girlfriend Cheated On Him With His Brother And His Family Expects Him To Forgive Them Both Since They’re Really In Love Now
This 29-year-old man has a brother named Gabriel, who is 27, and throughout their childhood, he really did his best to play protector to his brother.
If anyone bullied Gabriel, he stepped in to get them to stop. When Gabriel had a hard time studying math, he invested hours into helping him succeed.
And not only did he do his best to be make Gabriel’s life easier, but his parents also did too, as Gabriel was obviously their favorite of the two of them.
For example, when it came time for him to buy his very first car, he saved up enough money to pay for half, and his mom and dad gave him the rest.
But, when Gabriel got his first car, his parents bought it for Gabriel outright, and Gabriel never had to get a job to help pay for it as he had.
“This favoritism toward him only grew stronger once I went to college,” he explained. “I decided to study computer engineering. My parents are old-fashioned and don’t understand what a computer engineer’s job is.”
“To them, I play video games from dawn to dusk (their words, not mine). I tried multiple times to explain to them what I do, but it’s like talking to a wall.”
“My brother studied business. Once he graduated, he started searching for a job. The company I was (and still am) working for was hiring people, so I told him, he got the job, and now he works in the sales department.”
He really has dedicated his life to helping his brother out, so you can see how he would never have thought his brother was capable of stabbing him in the back.

Anyway, 3 years ago, he began dating a 27-year-old girl named Chelsea, and after he introduced Chelsea to his family, he was happy to see that she got along wonderfully with Gabriel.
About 1 year ago, his company became super short-staffed, so he ended up having to work even longer hours throughout the course of 2 months.
He worked so much that he would come home and just get into bed. On his weekends, he was so exhausted that he didn’t have the energy to do fun things with Chelsea, and he went from seeing her about 2 times a week to 1 time every week. Sometimes, he would see Chelsea just once every few weeks.
But, after those difficult 2 months came to a close, his relationship with Chelsea seemed to go back to how it had been all along.
Then, he realized Chelsea was becoming more and more “distant,” and she wasn’t acting quite like herself.
“She became quite possessive with her phone; she would suddenly cancel our dates and other things like that,” he said.
“Anyway, fast forward to 3 months ago, and I found out Chelsea had been cheating on me with my brother (yeah, I looked through her phone; it’s a violation of her privacy, I know).”
“I think I have never been so angry in my whole life. I kicked her out, went to my brother’s house, and confronted him. He laughed in my face. This man, my own brother, stole my GF after everything I did for him and even laughed in my face.”
He essentially told his brother that he was dead to him that day for this complete act of betrayal.
He then called up his mom and dad and filled them in. They promised that they would speak to Gabriel about what had happened.
In the months that followed, he was a train wreck. He was so broken about Chelsea that he just did his best to put all of his attention on his career.
“I recently went to a family dinner, and to my surprise, both Gabriel and Chelsea were there,” he continued.
“To sum it up…my family decided to side with Gabriel, because apparently he and Chelsea “found their true love in each other and, while they hurt me, I should try to forgive them and accept it.” I told them exactly what I said to Gabriel: from now on, act as if I don’t exist.”
He left, and after that, his family has been blowing up his phone. Do you think he should try to cut them all off, especially since they don’t see how Cheslea and Gabriel’s relationship is wrong?
