I went through something similar but it was my parents not my sibling that had an issue. They were (still are) convinced that my boyfriend of 6yrs isn't good enough for me. They say he's undermotivated and holding me back and blah blah blah. I fought to stay with him and eventually told them that he makes me happy and they should be happy for that. Try talking to your brother as well, if he is friends with this guy he should trust him enough not to hurt his little sister. I'm sure he's just looking out for you but he also has to learn that you need to make choices for yourself. Even if you make a mistake (not saying this is), you will learn and gain in life from it. Try telling him that too.
Is there a drastic age difference? My parents also had trouble with that, even though my boyfriend and i are only 3yrs appart.
sorry if this is confusing i'm not good at typing out my thoughts lol.
