It's not my decision, (though I dont have a sister but if I did) I really can't stand it in shows where some guy wants to date his best friends sister, the best friend is all like "oh no you can't date her but I'm not gonna say why" *cough* Saved By The Bell....I think *cough*

Why would my friends want to date her?! She is for lack of a better term a *****. she whines and yells when she doesn't get what she wants (for fucks sake she is sixteen not three!) and she refuses to do any work around the house or get a job so she can buy the things she keeps asking for herself! wow I ranted there... but yeah I wouldn't care but I would be very unsure of the mental stability of a friend of mine who would want to date her...

Does it count if you become friends with your sisters boyfriend?

Well, I've known him since high school... so I've known him for about 7 years... Though they've only been going out about a year now.

Depends on the person in question. Best friends and close friends get an almost immediate 'yes' because I'd know them well enough to realize they'd be a good influence in her life. 'Random friends' would be a yes purely because I don't know the person in question and wouldn't want to mingle. I'd probably do 'something' if I knew the person in question to be a complete jackass, though. Getting to know him better is a possibility.

If they can find my sister, good on them I say - she doesn't exist, as far as I'm aware, but anyone who has the skill to get around that barrier can have her I say.

I have no right to control her life. The most I can do if I disagree with the relationship is voice my disagreement once to her then pretend like everything's fine and dandy.

Is this good or bad?
If your sister has a boyfriend and it's one of your friends, that's great.

Wouldn't you rather she go out with a good friend of yours who you know is going to treat her well, instead of some random asshole?
A good friend sure, but there are some people that I consider little more then good acquaintances that other might call friends. I also have a couple of friends that make horrible relationship decisions, that part of their life has no effect on me so it never bothers me, but I wouldn't trust them to give the respect I would feel is due of a family member.

Would I throw a fit if my sister decided to date a friend? No way, I might tell her about what I thought of them in a relationship but it is up to her to heed my counsel or not. I don't control her life. The inevitable break up would be a sure fire way to lose a friend however as there is little to no chance of me taking a friends side over my sisters.

If my best friend announced she was gay or bisexual and wanted to date my sister, I would be weirded out beyond belief, but I don't have control over anyone. And if I tried to tell either of them that they couldn't date each other, they'd laugh at me and keep dating. You don't tell those two what they can and can't do.

I don't mind. It's up to them, and things would be a lot more awkward if I didn't let them than if I did. Besides, I've dated my freind's sister before, it was ok, and also quite convenient.

But if anyone of my friends wanted to date my sister? No, I wouldn't let them.


She's 10.

Even in a worst case scenario, an acquaintance who is known to be dodgy is better than a stranger. The devil you know is always preferable to the devil you don't know.

People who get upset about people dating their siblings are just grown-up 5 year olds who need to butt out of things that aren't their business. In all cases, the only exception being when the sibling is too young to date at all.

My sister is 8 years younger than me so no way in the fiery depths of eternal hell am I letting a friend date my nearly 11 year-old sister
Same here. And if they try they"ll be thrown in the 4chan party van.

I think, everyone except my best friend. In general, I'm not too attached to my friends (they're made by coincidence, right?), but if it were my best friend, I'd be concerned about losing that friend (because if his relationship with her is not the most important thing on his agenda, he's not good enough for her).

That, and if he were a catch at all, I would be dating him. But I'm not.

Wow, the majority really says any friend? I'm shocked. As for me, not a chance in hell is that going to happen. There are very few people that I would trust with them, and considering how well I know my friends there's no way they are included in that list.

*shrugs* It's my sister's choice, not mine. But if I knew he was a prick and would most likely treat her badly, I would probably give both of them a warning about it.

My sister dated a friend of mine. I was ok with it, but i did keep a close eye on them.
