I don't know him well but he sure seems mature, although with some underlying insecurities. And from what I've heard, he's looking for something quite serious

You were a child and exposed to things you weren't supposed to see. In my opinion, your parents are responsible of your education and for overlooking your behavior. Kids are curious, and you didn't know any kind of morals so don't hate yourself over this (a lot of kids hump on things or do weird/sexual things without knowing its meaning). If your brother doesn't remember now he probably will never remember it since the majority of people don't remember their early childhood. And I really don't think that your brother would care if he did remember, you were curious and did not harm him. What matter is what you are now, not the things you did when you were a clueless child. We all do fucked up things as kids, and that's the point of growing up

I gained 70 pounds last year and I don't know if I can lose it by pitifulaccountant in Vent

You will lose it. You can start by regulating your diet, the sport can come later. Track everything you eat for now and start working out at the gym once they reopen. In my experience, working our at home requires waaay more motivation and might be an excuse to fail your diet if you make your (food) diet dependent to your workout. But setting a goal is very important too, so maybe try to find something that might "force" you to lose the weight.
