I swear it’s like every other week that they’re fighting and she’s about to pack up and leave and he sends her to my house to fix their issue. Now there I am in the middle of it and I don’t even know WTH is going on but I’m supposed to make her feel better and also at the same time talk my brother up to make him credible for her to give him another chance. And I’m sick of it. Last night I had a million and one things going on and I told him No. I told him to seek professional help that I’m out of it and now I’m the bad guy and getting the cold shoulder. SMH.

This is so weird. You’re NTA. You are not the bad guy for enforcing your boundaries. You don’t have to allow yourself to become part of their situation.
Just don’t be home (even if you are home). It’s perfectly okay to refuse to be your brother’s clean-up crew.
NTA. Is he 15??
NTA you’re right to tell them to get a therapist because that’s not what you are. They shouldn’t expect that from you
NTA. You made the right decision. Tell them to pay for couples counseling. If they pay for the helps that you are expected to provide for free, they may take their relationship more seriously than they seem to be doing right now.
