I have a major problem with my twin's boyfriend. They have been dating for a year, and my husband, her boyfriend and of course my twin are all moving in a couple of months. We are all very excited about it, but recently my sister's boyfriend said that if the circumstances were right (i.e. great job), then he would have no problem moving away from my husband and I. He says that he would actually make my twin choose between me and him!! I know this is the man that my twin is going to marry, and I would not expect her to stay with me if this issue did come up. I cannot get over the audacity of my sister's boyfriend. I've tried explaining to him that an identical twin's relationship is unlike any other relationship out there. He just doesn't get it. He keeps saying that he isn't trying to take me away from my sister, but no matter how often he says it, I don't know what else to call it. I would be crushed if she ever moved away, and I feel an awful lot of resentment towards her boyfriend for putting us in this situation. I have it hanging over my head each day now that one day I may lose the person I grew up with, I go to school with, I hang out with. She is my irreplaceable best friend, and I am so sad that this may happen one day. I guess this is more just to vent than to actually get some advice. Thanks for listening.
