I (m30) and wife (f28) have been married for 3 years now. My brother is (m18). My wife and him have always had a sibling kinda relationship altho she sometimes says she looks at him like our son because he was really young when we started dating and she met him. We usually have a lot of parties where the entire family gathers (my side of family) where we play games, dance and eat (the usual fun stuff). Although my wife and brother have never really danced together in these parties, yesterday when we were at the party my brother came to wife and took her to the dance floor kinda forcefully, she looked at me awkwardly (i could tell) but she then just smiled and shrugged it off as no big deal since they were like siblings (she told me this). The song was kinda slow and there were usually only couples dancing to it. Now the uncomfortable part begins as my brother starts pulling my wife more and more into his body. I could see she was getting uncomfortable and i was honestly about to approach very calmly at first smiling n all but then i noticed his hand almost reaching for my wife's bottom and went as fast as i could in full anger, pulled him away and took my wife into another room. She broke down into tears and i consoled her and cuddled her for a while as i assured her that i know she wasn't at fault. She explained to me she felt uncomfortable too and that i wasn't just making things up in my head. I knew i had caused a scene in front of the entire family (all the cousins and our parents) and had to deal with them but i expected them to take my side and understand what i did but to my surprise they all thought that i overreacted. My brother denied to have had any such intent to touch her that way. It was hard for me to believe as well that my little brother could ever act this way but i know what i saw. They all seemed pretty mad at me and my wife too when they saw her red face indicating she had cried. Everyone thinks that we were being over dramatic about the whole thing and told us to not come to parties anymore if we're going to ruin the vibe like this each time. Am i the asshole here?
