On another front, the S has hit the fan with respect to my brothers. One of my brothers, K, the middle son, is married but going through a S and D. I have related here in my threads the odd similarities in circumstances and contrasted the stark difference in reactions to our respective predicaments.

This past weekend, my youngest brother, B (unmarried), opened a can of verbal Whoop-arse on our mutual sister-in-law, K's wife. B called her out on her treachery and lies to our family, including her reconciled R and alliance with my own xW, while leading K along to think she was working in everyone's interests before her own, when it has always been the opposite. My STBXSIL was once pretty palsy with my youngest brother, her younger brother-in-law, since they are closer to the same age themselves, but now that's over and done with.

I spoke to my brother, and what set him off (this has been building for some time) was that he learned that our SIL had via FB sent her love and glad tidings to my xW upon hearing she had become engaged to remarry -- even knowing full well this was xW's affair partner.

I haven't spoken to K about this yet, but I understand he's pretty upset with B for stirring up trouble with his WAW. I need to talk to K, but I am betting he just wants to sweep any conflict under the carpet.

Real love is a decision.
Marriage is a commitment.
