<human>: Condense the text into a few key points

I'm going to try and keep it short. Started talking to an ex after a year of not being together and things were going well. After a few weeks things were picking up and the subject of dating came up. We both did a lot of growing in the last year, and I know some will say once an ex always an ex but I don't necessarily believe that. I take things on a case by case basis.

Anyways, we were about to go on our first date when one of her brothers found out she was talking to me again. I should mention her father had an issue with me before and all her brothers but one hated me. She lives with two of her brothers now which led to him finding out. 

He flips out. Threatens to kick her out of the house since it's his name on the rental agreement,  and cut her off from his son which is basically her son since his mother passed away a few years back and for a year she had custody of him when he went to jail. Says he's going to change her number since the cell phone plan is in his name also, things like that. We talk a couple of times after this happened and then stopped because he went through her cell phone bill and saw we talked.

She says to give it a few weeks for him and everyone else to calm down, and that she knows it's completely unreasonable.  I do. Then when I do hear from her she tells me it's over. That I'm not worth losing his son out of her life and to not contact her anymore.

I'm dumbfounded. I'm worried for her well being for one, her brother is known to have a temper,  and I'm amazed that she's actually going along with it. He even went as far as to change her number one day and only telling her after he did it and handed her a new phone. All so that I can't contact her. Has anyone been in a similar situation?
<bot>: grown girls family hates me and is forbidding her from contacting me, otherwise they'll cut her off from living with them and contact with other family members
