So I found them cuddling in the couch this afternoon. I envy those closeness and comfort. I recently argue with my bf, that's why we haven't talked or come in touch for days....
Is this just a female instinct, or is there something wrong with me here...? I do love my brother though....

It may be a two-folded reaction. Firstly, you're feeling lonely so seeing two people cuddle, reminds you of what you would like to have. Secondly, it is your brother, so you have a natural territorial instinct, just like you would if your dad had a new wife, so that makes you feel "uncomfortable" or "jealous." Nothing to worry about. You're perfectly normal with all the natural instincts. I wouldn't call it jealousy, I would call you wanting some love and affection, which is something all of us want, you're just open enough to admit it and analyze it :)

Nah, theres nothing wrong with you. You just seceretly desire the same closeness in your relationship with your boyfriend that your brother and his girlfriend share and you're frustrated because your lacking that. Maybe it's time to kiss and make up with your man?? ;) Go out for a romantic dinner together, get a hotel and have lots of wild make up sex.. Cuddle afterwards fall asleep in each others arms and snooze up until about 10 minutes before check out the next AM. That aughta help! Here's hoping that things with the two of you get better soon..

You are jealous because you miss being a couple with your boyfriend. You wish you were cuddling on the couch like your brother and you are feeling jealous because now your bro isn't spending as much time with you and isn't there to comfort you while you and your man are having problems.

This is just a suggestion, b/c of course I don't know details of your relationship with your boyfriend, but maybe you are wanting out of your relationship. Maybe you're not getting the affection, appreciation, etc. that you feel that you deserve.
Maybe if you were truly happy, (aside from the arguement you recently had), you wouldn't feel jealous of your bro and his girlfriend's happiness and closeness.

It probably has nothing to do with it being your brother, it's just the relationship aspect. You may be jealous of anyone in a good relationship, as yours has gone poor right now. Just ignore it.

There is nothing wrong with you, your just jealous because he has a relationship with his girlfriend that you would like to have with your boyfriend. You pretty much stated that in your question. That is the reason why.

I know how you feel! When I see two people being affectionate with each other, it makes me want the same amount of affection from my boyfriend. He’s not affectionate, and doesn’t want to change.
Just remember the grass is always greener…

I think you just miss what you once had.
