This is being written at 2 AM, while I have decided to stop overthinking and ask you guys for advice, so please bear with me if it gets a bit complicated.
My brother (M29) and his (now ex) fiancee have been dating for over 2 years and were very keenly planning their wedding. His ex had been planning to take me on a trip for my 18th birthday, which is in July, to celebrate along with her, and to help her choose a wedding dress. She already made the payment for the trip 6 months prior to this moment.
Two months ago, my brother’s ex’s dad had died. She was under a lot of stress and pressure and decided to call off the wedding and break up with my brother. Her explanation to the breakup was that she wanted to focus on herself and that she didn’t feel the same. He was really pissed and sad this happened, along with the fact that he had already renovated a place they were supposed to live in when they got married.
When this happened, it made them completely become strangers and stay on really bad terms with each other, however, her and my relationship hasn't really changed. We don't stay in touch really often, but she is very kind to me whenever we hear from each other.
Earlier this week, she texted me, saying that she would be really glad if our trip together in July was still going to happen, even though she and my brother aren't together anymore. I shared this with him, and he tried to be indifferent and tell me that I should do whatever I want, but I could tell he wasn't very happy about it because he is still hurt.
I don't know what should I do. I am very much keen on going on a free trip for my birthday, but I am afraid I will hurt my brother’s feelings and change our relationship further on. Should I go on that trip?
TL;DR! My brother’s ex-fiancee asked me whether I still wanted to go on a pre-planned trip for my birthday with her. He is not on good terms with her, but I still stayed in touch with her even after they broke up.
EDIT: More info.
