So me and my brother are 13 and 15, our mom died when he was 1.5 and I was a couple months old. My dad never remarried but last year he started dating someone. I am happy for him, and while I don't think I need a "mom" its nice to have another "parent" in a way that can take me places. My brother does not like her very much, she's nice to him but he refuses to see her as anything but someone dad will dump. Its starting to annoy me, cause him being all angry and hating her for no good reason is hurting my dad and I can see it.
We share a room and we usually talk a bit before bed, and asked him why he doesn't like dad's GF. He told me that she will never replace mom and then he asked why I am so comfortable with her. The rest of the conversation went like this:
Me:I just don't hate her like you, its not about replacing mom dude its about dad finding someone again
Bro:I know but you still like her
Me:Yeah she is nice
Bro:Ok? She's still not mom
Me:Its not about mom, I mean yeah I don't see her as a "mom" but don't you think its time for you to let go of mom a bit? I mean I don't think either of us really remember a time with her, and being rude to dad's GF isn't helping anything.
He called me a dick and fell asleep, in the morning he refused to talk to me and said that I don't know what I was talking about and its been about 2 days since the whole conversation and all he's said to me has been "morning" and "night".
Advice on this?
TL;DR:My brother doesn’t like our dad’s GF and I told him to get over our mom’s death
