Dear sister-in-law,
I'm writing this here because I know you'll never read it. Due to lack of courage and aversion to confrontation, I will never say this to your face.
I don't blame you for the divorce. You and my brother had a decade-long tumultuous, on-again-off-again relationship and two kids before tying the knot. Was I hoping this time it might work out? Yes. Am I surprised that it ended up this way? Unfortunately, I'm kind of not.
I don't blame you, but I think you being a bitch and selfish in how you're handling this.
Stop denying he's your boyfriend. You would have him over almost everyday while my brother was at work before you moved out. Now that you have your own place, you both get your kids on the same weekends and they are all on Facebook calling each other "Siblings." Don't deny a relationship with him at the same time you are encouraging your kids to think of his kids as their sisters/brothers.
I don't know your reasoning - maybe because you've only been split for 6 months? maybe because neither you or my brother have filed for divorce yet? - I don't know and I don't care.
I just think you are making a shitty and confusing situation even more shitty and confusing for everyone - especially your children.
Sincerely,
Me
