Ctownguy Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 I just wanted to get some thoughts about my current situation. My brother was a drug addict for years. He stole from the family, lied to us all and disappeared from our lives. I recently met his Ex wife through facebook and found out I had 2 nieces. I offered for them to come and stay with me so that they could get to know this side of the family. The ages of my nieces are 15 and 17. My brother has little to do with them and lives several hours away from them. While they were here for a week me and his Ex hit it off great. we have been talking for a month now and really are developing deep feelings for each other. I cant decide what to do, if it were just me and her I wouldn't hesitate but I don't know if this would be ok as far as the kids go (they love me to death and I have been doing things with them since).
preraph Posted April 29, 2015 Posted April 29, 2015 I would just first caution that I'm an old hippie, and in my many years, I have never seen a couple where one person is a drug addict and the other is clean as a daisy. So you should assume she also has substance habits. Dating a sibling's ex is a horrible idea, of course. It's a terrible betrayal. I realize he probably f'd up everything every which way with everyone, but still, why add to the chaos? There are a billion other women in the world. Why would you choose his ex, who is probably also a train wreck since he is.
