So, some events have happened to where I have to move in with my brother. This normally wouldn't be a big deal to people except the fact, my brother is 10 years older than me. He practically raised me and hasn't been around since I turned 16 and I am 27 now. Which sucked, and now he is more of an estranged father than a sibling...if that makes any sense. Now, my two year old and myself are going to be living with him. He has his own children too, so the good thing is my son would have other kids to play with, but..I don't know. I feel weird about it...

Do you feel like your past and everything that has happened needs to be discussed? You guys could go for drinks or coffee to "catch up" before the move in, and you can let things progress from there. Maybe it'll be nothing or maybe the conversation will make you feel more comfortable.

Just an idea :)

We actually did end up having a conversation before I ended up settling in. I haven't done anything like this before, so the entire experience is new to me. We ended up having a pretty solid understanding and awesome Christmas.
