I would like to know how a scenario like this could be handled by the person.

Oh yeah, I am not in this scenario by the way, it's just an interesting concept that I think could play out in any way possible;

The person maybe a homosexual and could make the situation even more complex;

How would that friend react? Has she/he made it clear that NO ONE will date their sibling? (Overprotective)

How would that sibling of your friend react? Would they fall in love in return?

How would your friend's parents react if such a relationship DID happen?

So many possibilities, so many ways to do the right (and wrong thing).

Discuss!

No that would violate my own set of personal rules that I follow its my own little code and this is one of the things that goes against it.

Not exactly... but I have had friend's sisters chasing after me. I have never gone for them though, not my style

I can see why it would go against your views when looking for a relationship.

I know no friends who have any sisters that I like (or cousins for that matter), so I have no opinion on the matter.

No, I haven't. But I did have a crush on my brother's friend once. My brother's always been very protective of me, so as soon as he saw me smile, he forbid his friend to even say "Hi" to me.
Lots of my friends liked my brother, though. But he was never interested in them, so that was never the issue. I just thought it was so funny when they all wanted to come over and work on projects at my place. :lol:

I haven't done it myself and having thought through it logically would make not even want to engage in it. Then again, logic sometimes goes out the window when emotions come into play, so I might wind up doing it one day...who knows :?

In my view it goes against the bro code I dont date their sisters or cousins or ex girlfriends same goes with my friends who have boyfriends.

I DID. Not something I meant to do (btw, not "best friend" just a friend) but I fell in love with her. And it is still my longes half-successful relationship.
I would not advise it though!

Sincerely,
Matthew

My cousin married his best friend's younger sister, and theirs is a successful marriage, too.

Well, not exactly. I met her first, and then met the rest of the group of friends I've talked to for the past maybe 3 or 4 years now. Funny thing is I don't talk to her anymore, but her brother and I get along great.

LOL @ the countertrolling!

I've not fallen in "love" with a friend's sister, but I did like her. After a long, hard, but completely unrelated story I started dating her. My friend... just didn't care. He didn't care so hard (pardon my videogame speech, but I can't think of a better way to say it) that I felt bad about her.

Still, dating a friend's sister doesn't seem unethical to me. If something goes wrong it better not be your fault though, because you would be jeopardizing a good friendship.
