A forbidden fruit is something desirable that is prohibited. Due to age factors and other related concerns, he is as much forbidden to you as you would be to him. That is the fear underlying the teasing and related concerns. They fear that you both would get involved with each other and as a result get stuck in a situation that would harm both of you. I don't know what the age difference is, but if it is over 3 years, then he is looking at potential legal problems, if he gets into an intimate relationship with you. These problems would basically destroy his life. They wouldn't necessarily be all that beneficial to you either. There is also another concern, that I didn't see mentioned, and that is your parents are about to lose their little girl. Being a parent, myself, I can see this particular point. You are growing up and as you mature, you will garner more and more attention from the boys, until you choose one for a partner. At that point you are no longer their little girl, but have separated from them. This is a cultural thing here, but there is a certain amount of sophistication that occurs at this point that doesn't exist prior to this. Kind of hard to describe, when you witness the changes that occur, then you know. They would like you to remain their little girl as long as possible and not have to deal with the boys and their problems.

Forbidden Fruit is you. Your parents dont think you old enough to get into something so serious or they are just too overprotective, but they most likely discussed that with his parents. So they are calling you forbidden fruit because they potentially dont want him nothing to do with you. You are apparently desired, your purity, your virginity, your righteousness....is desired and that is why it is forbidden fruit. Sorry there is nothing more to say.

The apple in the garden of eden was a "forbidden fruit"...there are consequences to eating it but sometimes the temptation is so strong you don't care. You are the forbidden fruit to this guy. The consequences are dire if he tries anything, but he may not care!

Basically, they're talking about keeping you and your friend's brother out of the same room alone. I'm going to hope your imagination will cover the rest. Sorry, but it's an old adult joke.

The "Forbidden Fruits" refers to you. Your virginity. He cannot partake of "You".
