POCD: was this inappropriate?

*mod edit*

I've been staying with family for a little bit whilst moving between places. My pajama top is like the first image and I put it like the second image as it felt more comfortable.

I was in the kitchen by myself and then my little brother (16) came in. First I thought I should put the top up, then I thought it was just my POCD over reacting so was going between putting it up then leaving it down which I think was worse than just leaving it one way or the other and now I'm just panicking and feel like I violated him.

He didn't actually seem like he noticed/cared about what I'm wearing but my anxiety is still going mad


I can't ever make good/common sense decisions. Will delete the pics in the few hours

I'll be honest- I nearly disapproved this. This is.. this is seeking reassurance, when I think you know better. You're being unreasonable with yourself. And for your sake, you need to stop.

You are obsessing over nothings

Look at this from the perspective of an outsider. What would they see? two straps and a clavicle. Have you never worn a typical formal wear around him, like a prom dress? Have you never worn a bikini top around him? Have you never worn a loose top with a wide collar like that that's meant to be worn like that? I'd be much surprised at the family that hasn't at least glimpsed each other in their underwear. What you describe is... nothing. It's nothing. How is it inappropriate? Tacky? Maybe. But in the setting you describe? Inappropriate? I see more skin at Walmart. No sweetie. Just no. You're torturing yourself over nothing. You seriously need to set this thought down and slowly back away from it. This isn't Victorian England. You need to tell your OCD it's being absurd and give this the respect it deserves from you- none. Worry about being a pedo when you are one, not before. Please.
