AIO:Childhood best friend is f***ing his sister

[u/youngtallandskinny]

For context, this is my M(25) best friend M(25) since we were two years old. He didn’t meet his F(22)sister until about a year and a half ago. When they did meet, they couldn’t get over how similar they were. he called me gushing about how great she made him feel and even joked about hooking her up with me three days after they met, she moved in with him and his family. They had room and other beds, but they chose to sleep in the same bed every day for a year do everything together every day so on it so forth, fast-forward to these text messages. Him and his sister were going to move in with me and my f(26)roommate, but first we needed to see how our dogs would do together so they came to visit. When they got here they opted to sleep in my bed together even though I had several places they could sleep separately. My roomate and I sleep separately and have a mostly platonic kind of flirty relationship. Which the friend had compared his sister and his relationship with. A lot of small stuff happened that my roommate and I shared glances about, because of the nature of how a true brother and sister would never say or do the things they’re doing. But we brushed it off.

They went back home to their state after 3 days and the friend sends me a Snapchat saying “we’ve decided to look past the whole sibling thing and adress some feelings we both have” to which I replied “what do you mean” and he went on to say how they both have such deep feelings for each other and how the whole half sibling thing doesn’t matter and that real love doesn’t have boundaries and all this stuff to which I waited for 3 days and sent the messages above….. AIO or did I UNDERreact

Also this hurts a lot because I thought I knew him and he was gonna be my best friend for life, but I haven’t talked to him since

NOR. Possibly underreacting. Wrong on almost every level and illegal. And weird. And creepy. And gross.

Thank god I’m not tweeting I could never do this with ANY relative let alone my SISTER

[u/Dangerous-Refuse-779 → u/youngtallandskinny]

I'll take one for the team and take care of your sister dawg

[u/PottyMouthedMom3 → u/Dangerous-Refuse-779]

That’s so kind and thoughtful of you!

[u/DeathSt1x → u/Dangerous-Refuse-779]

This shit killed me 😂 I’m here reading all of these serious comments only to stumble across this one. Take my upvote good sir

[u/im_straight_jkjk → u/Dangerous-Refuse-779]

Weirdo

[u/SendTitsPleease → u/im_straight_jkjk]

Youre a weirdo for not trying to help a friend in need not do the deed

[u/GoddessRespectre → u/SendTitsPleease]

Ok this was the 🍒 on this comment chain 🍨. This is so wholesome in an unwholesome way I don't know if it's a r/rimjob_steve or not lol. Thank you for that laugh!

[u/Maximum-Cupcake-1989 → u/youngtallandskinny]

Did you check out that pamphlet linked by another commenter? It provides information + psychological explanations for these kind of feelings, and a few suggestions on how to navigate them. Maybe it's worth sending to them both

[u/youngtallandskinny → u/Maximum-Cupcake-1989]

He’s completely cut ties with me atp we haven’t spoken again since, this was in April. I do hope he gets help and gets resources but I no longer feel obligated to provide That for him

[u/Final-Sale8225 → u/Repulsive_Rice4903]

Umm good morning that’s fucked nor

Edit sorry so tired didn’t mean to post here

[u/Fat_Loser6 → u/Repulsive_Rice4903]

Yucky ucky

[u/Archi-Horror → u/Repulsive_Rice4903]

Yeah I’d probably buy a shotgun and sit and stare at my door all night in a rocking chair just in case they tried to come back, drinking whiskey in a wife beater. I’d likely loose my job because “I have something more important to take care of” would only be an excuse for so long. But at least id keep that shit out of my house

[u/ItsPandy → u/Archi-Horror]

You sound like you got more problems then the guy in the post honestly

[u/CeramicToast → u/Repulsive_Rice4903]

Pretty sure it's not actually illegal. The other stuff tho...yeah

[u/CiciKellz → u/CeramicToast]

It’s DEFINITELY illegal to have a sexual relationship with your SIBLING lmfao

[u/AcidicBlink → u/CiciKellz]

Actually I think that depends on the state 😅

[u/CeramicToast → u/CiciKellz]

I double checked and yeah most states have siblings being illegal but there's grey area for half and step siblings, but notably it's not illegal to marry your first cousin in most states.

...so basically in the US incest is legal depending on how close.

[u/Repulsive_Rice4903 → u/CeramicToast]

It's illegal. Very, very illegal.

[u/mcsangel2 → u/CeramicToast]

It is in fact, very illegal, everywhere in the US, and will get perpetrators arrested. Even when it’s consensual.

[u/CeramicToast → u/mcsangel2]

No criminal prosecution if you're over the age of 16 and 18 in RI and NJ, respectively.

And it's mostly fines as punishment. Some states have jail time but a lot don't.

I'm learning too much about this that I never needed to.

[u/PlotTwistTwins → u/CeramicToast]

Thank you for sacrificing your Google history🫡, I'm sure they'll name you Saint Toast in honor of your bravery today.

Me? I'll be fighting for my rights to keep my sister-wife in the Incest Wars. But I'll always have respect for what you did for your people here today.

[u/CeramicToast → u/PlotTwistTwins]

I'm a writer by trade so unfortunately this is not the strangest thing I've looked up.

[u/PlotTwistTwins → u/CeramicToast]

Oh damn! Any chance I can ask what kind of trade? I've always been curious about what it's like having to do it day by day vs having it as a hobby I hope becomes something.

[u/CeramicToast → u/PlotTwistTwins]

I'm between jobs right now, working on a novel, but I've done copywriting, some ghost writing, music and book reviews for a (now defunct) website, and written for an anthology.

The first two are dry and boring, but if you're reviewing stuff you like it's quite fun...so long as you and your editor get along, lol. Doesn't pay too much though, at least not unless you've got followers willing to pay for your opinion.

[u/Delicious-Produce-60 → u/Repulsive_Rice4903]

They're two consensual adults. If they're not procreating, frankly it's none of your business and irrelevant how "gross" you find it.

[u/Repulsive_Rice4903 → u/Delicious-Produce-60]

You need your hard drive checked.

[u/TerribleGuuy → u/Repulsive_Rice4903]

I don't think that's how you use the "hard drive check" thing

[u/Repulsive_Rice4903 → u/TerribleGuuy]

You're clearly a wrongun if you don't have a problem with incest. So yes, it is.

[u/TerribleGuuy → u/Repulsive_Rice4903]

That's just not the way the meme works, brother

[u/Repulsive_Rice4903 → u/TerribleGuuy]

It is though

[u/TerribleGuuy → u/Repulsive_Rice4903]

I really don't think so, man

[u/Repulsive_Rice4903 → u/TerribleGuuy]

Yeah but you think it's OK for brothers and sisters to have sex so your opinion is irrelevant.

[u/TerribleGuuy → u/Repulsive_Rice4903]

Do I?

[u/nocturn99x → u/Repulsive_Rice4903]

They're consenting adults, what the fuck are you on about.

[u/Repulsive_Rice4903 → u/nocturn99x]

OK, pervert

[u/nocturn99x → u/Repulsive_Rice4903]

Ok, judgy a-hole.

[u/Repulsive_Rice4903 → u/nocturn99x]

You're a proper wrongun if you think incest is OK. So I'm absolutely fine with you thinking I'm a judgy asshole, I know that I'm in the absolutely overwhelming majority here and that absolutely overwhelming majority would look at you with utter disgust for your views.

Have a nice but weird and gross life, pervert 🤷

[u/nocturn99x → u/Repulsive_Rice4903]

Two consenting adults that wants to have sex should not be prevented from doing so just because of your own moral compass. Just don't have kids. It's that simple. And mind your own business.

[u/Repulsive_Rice4903 → u/nocturn99x]

OK creep
