Me [21 F] with my boyfriend [21 M] of a year and a half, he holds his sister's (24 F) hand instead of mine when we are in public together?

Hey,

My boyfriend and I have been together for a year and a half now. I have always known that he is very close to his older sister (she is 24 now). She works in Europe, and they skype like once a week or so, but I've only spoken to her about 5 times over the last year and a half.

I hadn't met her till last week, when she came over to visit him and finally meet me. We picked her up from the airport, and I got out of the car to help her with her stuff and such. I then offered her the front seat so that she could catch up with her brother on the ride home (they haven't seen each other for like 2 months, he went over to visit her about 2 months ago). I was perfectly happy doing this. I noticed that they were holding hands in the car.. but like.. they haven't seen each other for 2 months, and are very close..so not super weird right?

We got some coffee and then I went to my place for the night, and we made plans to get dinner the next day.

Boyfriend and sister drove over to pick me up, and we went to a nice place for dinner, and she insisted on paying because she was meeting me for the first time. Only weird thing, they were still holding hands in the car. And when we got out of the car to walk to the restuarant, it became clear that she wans't going to let go of his hand.. So as the night progressed it definitely felt like I was third wheeling them on a date.

They held hands through dinner.. and she kept like..stroking his hair and face and such.. and they sat on the same side of the table.. so I was just sat there with no one beside me.

On the car ride home, same story. She got in the front, and they held hands home. Now by the time I got into bed, I'd began forming all sorts of weird conclusions about them. She even got him a V day present?? I guess a somewhat important detail is that she has never really dated anyone, and is super religious, whereas my boyfriend isn't. Like, I know that she is waiting to have sex till she is married and such.

I just want to know if anyone else has had similar experiences? I don't want to interfere in their relationship, but like, if maybe me and my boyfriend are together for a few more years, I would really be pissed off if he didn't hold my hand and always went for his sister's?

Edit: Do I ask him about it? Do I even want to know what the potential backstory is? :/

tl;dr: Boyfriend holds his older sister's hand and they kinda feel like a couple. its weird, does any one else have a similar experience?

It's possible that there's nothing past what she's seen goin on. Sounds plausible that waiting till marriage religious sister is overly affectionate with her brother to compensate which is still super weird but not necessarily gross.

Huh.
Handholding in a car is weird, maybe he drives automatic.
Actually it's all weird. I get on well with my sisters but we never hold hands.

Yeah it's by no means normal but if they're not loving I can't say I care too much.

Wow, I cannot believe my mom stooped so low...
My mom called my doctor and said to him "What's the most accurate measurement for weighing?" The doctor said "An underwater weighing test" And just like that, my mom said "Yes. When can my son and my daughter can take it?" and the doc said "Today at 2pm."

So, I didn't bother taking a shower and so did my sister too, so I had to get into a special swimming suit(tight pants...Ugh).
My sister said "Can I pull my hair down to a ponytail?" The doctor said "No." So my sister with her long, blonde hair went underwater with 8 seconds and had she must enjoyed it..but I didn't.

My sister had to wear pants and a bra, so she enjoyed minutes of going underwater. I didn't take a shower and she didn't too.
Before she got into the tank, you see girls 'pretend' to pull their hair into ponytails, but they don't. That's what she did.
The reason for this topic to not get too confusing is that don't you guys like to see teenage girls in a tank with their hair and their body soaked and wet? That's the reason for this topic.

You want a detailed summary of what happened today? Alright, here goes:

My mom wanted to do something instead of weighing myself on a scale. She heard about a underwater weighing test from my doctor last year and she wanted to give it a try to both, myself and my sister.

She called the doctor and wanted to schedule an appointment for my sister and I and today was the only day they could get us in. So my mom told both of us you don't need to take a shower if you don't want to(since I got up at 12pm and she got up at 12:30p.m.) It goes on from there with the underwater weighing at the doctor's office.
My sister constantly talks about her hair. "Should I wash it?" "Should I pull my hair up or leave it down?" Stuff like that. It wasn't my idea to take this underwater weighing thing.

The doctor puts you in a tank (and I didn't have a shower), makes you do certain things of breathing, and you put your head underwater for a few seconds. Not hard at all.
To answer you question, before my sister and I got into the tank, the doctor did a basic weight test then I got into the tank and did some breathing excerises to see how my lungs would be situated underwater. Then the doctor took the temperature of the water inside the tank. After I taken my underwater tests, I had to stick my head underwater for 8 seconds and it was done. 30 minutes its all it take.
