Hypocritical a****** muslim brother

Ditch the laptop and don't answer his calls when you go out

Ditch the laptop and don't answer his calls when you go out

I don't see how the muslim bit makes its way in here..
Has he said that he does this on the basis of Islam, or is it implied?
Either way, you don't have to use the laptop, just take it as a good thing, I see no reason to complain.
Have you thought that maybe he's looking out for you like an older sibling?
It may be overbearing, but then again, just tell him to lay off if it's that bad.

How old are you and how old is he?

First point is very true I should not really have posted the muslim part.

Why should he be allowed to do anything he wants but its a double standard for me?

24 and 26

Because us older siblings have the gift of hindsight .

Or, you know, the title is true (apart from the muslim bit). Either way, he doesn't own you, so do what you want.

Bruh, I'm 17. Let me iterate this (I'm a Libyan older brother). You're 24. You're a GROWN MAN. And your brother is only 2 years older than you. If he asks you to do something you don't want to do tell him to piss off.

That's great but when I try to do what I want they try to use fear to control my behaviour.

What shall I do there?

Thank you for the response

What would you do when they try to use fear to control your behaviour?

Are you in university ? if not yet, choose something away from home so you can live in halls. My brother is so annoying as well, he tries to look stuff on my phone, comments on my make-up/clothes when he's the one who see different women probably every week


EDIT: I saw you are 24, so do you have a degree ? if yes, try to look for a job and move out, and if you can't because of your family, try to find a job far away so you have to move anyway
