Am I wierd to feel this way?

I am close with my BIL, he is like my own brother. He is 9 years younger than my DH, and I have known him since he's 12 (he's 19 now). He just started dating for the first time, and now when I see him and his girlfriend (of 2 or 3 weeks) kiss or show affection, I get very creeped out Chat Icon It's like its wierd to think of him that way. Plus, he sort of acts young, so it just makes the whole thing wierd. I just get really uncomfortable seeing them together like that.

Plus, this weekend DH and I are going to my parents' house for a bbq in MA and invited my ILs. My ILs can't come, but my BIL wants to come and wants his girlfriend to come. My parents don't have a ton of room, so we would all have to sleep together in the family room, either on couches or sprawled out on the floor. As is I don't like sharing rooms with couples, and I am just not looking forward to this.

Is it wierd of me to feel this way? I guess I'll get used to it, but for now it's so new and unconfortable. Chat Icon

I don't think it's weird, it can be hard to watch "your kids" grow up. I had a hard time seeing my cousin with his GF. I looked at him and thought: OH MY GOODNESS- he is a MAN now, not a snot covered little kid. Takes some getting used to, but it will happen.

That being said- I don't like sharing rooms with anyone either. Is it possible to get a hotel room?

No, my parents really like when we stay at the house, and since my BIL and his GF are young, I could never ask them to pay for a hotel room.
