My brother has always been a quiet guy, so I'm really his only friend.
He started college a few months ago. He was terrified at the idea of living in an apartment alone so I decided to move in with him and keep him company until he found himself a girlfriend or whatever.
Its been three months and shits not going anywhere. I cant seem to relate to him since I'm an extroverted person, so my advice of "just talk to people" doesn't seem to resonate with him.
So please antisocial introverts of osu!forums (which I'm assuming is most of you) how do I help my big bro
EDIT: also how do I tell him that he snores and hogs the blanket at night without hurting his feelings
EDIT 2: tl;dr I take him out to the bar, he gets a girlfriend, we played smash.
Yesterday night, my brother and I went to some bar downtown. This place is pretty busy but not nearly as much as it would have been on Friday.
I actually had to lie to my brother to get him into the bar. He absolutely hates bars, parties, etc etc. I told him that we were going to a coffee shop and he believed me lmao what an idiot.
Anyways we get in and sit at a booth in the back. I can visibly see him shaking from nervousness. I get him a beer and a water for myself. Liquid courage you know? He downs the whole thing, but he's still a nervous wreck. I get him some more, and more, and more...
He sucking these bottles and my wallet dry yet nothing is happening.
I say fuck it and go up to some 7/10 QT and tell her that my "friend" thinks that shes cute. She looks over to my brother and looks back to me with a weird ass smirk/smile with fire in her eyes. I mean my brother is actually a pretty handsome guy but seriously wtf I still cant explain that look.
She goes over to him and chats him up while I spectate a few feet away. I can see my brother losing his shit in the presence of a female grill while she seems to be having a grand ol time.
Suddenly I see the tenseness in my brother just disappear in an instant, and after a while he starts to smile. I'm thinking wtf are they talking about. I sit at the front of the bar whilst sipping my coke waiting for them to finish.
After a while I finally see them get up from the booth. Bro tells me we're going home. She goes with us and I'm thinking that my brother is dropping her off or something but nope. We pull into our place, go inside, and start playing sm4sh. Its her favorite game apparently. That and CS:GO
My brother likes gamer girls and this girl likes shy guys. Guess it all worked out
