I also don't get the she/he dated one brother/sister then the other brother/sister thing either.

Years ago during the War [WWII????]; if a spouse lost their husband, they dated [fka "courted"] & married the brother of their previous spouse!
Currently, I would think it may be odd unless the spouse is deceased. Why: I can see why one might be attracted to similar qualities & belonging to the same family especially if children are in the equation. Never married? To me? Odd. Honestly the present times both might be really strange but the first, I can understand yet it has to be uncomfortable.
