bonus hax chat q: her brother-in-law is a layabout dumbass fooling around with an old (married to rich guy) flame. does she hit him with the truth?

BOY TOY? TRUE LOVE? HEARTBREAK.

My husband's brother is in his early 30s and lives at home with mom and dad, still. He's a moderately successful artist, teaching, staying busy, has friends. He does, however, still interact with his mom and dad like an adolescent. He's recently reconnected with an older woman he met--when they were both single many years ago--that lives abroad now with her even older wealthy husband and their 2 kids. Naturally, they are in love and she says she's going to leave her husband for him. uummhmmm. My dilemma--as a quasi-sister, he looks to me to talk to and wants support. Yes, he's an immature idiot, but he sincerely thinks this is going to work and has no thoughts that it won't be happily ever after. I see complete heartbreak in his future due to so many factors. Do i mention that hey, great if it does work out, buuuut, you know, maybe the rich lady and her 2 kids won't want to live in his mom and dad's basement, or do i just listen? My husband, his brother, has gone the "dude, you are gonna get your butt kicked by your girlfriend's husband, what are you thinking?!" route.

I don't understand the dilemma. If he asks for her opinion, she should give him her opinion. -- nm - mara christmas, movie house! Dec 21, 10:39

  - I believe she's more concerned about how her brother's escapades as a 30 year old adolescent will make her look. She doesn't want any more embarassmen - CQ draped in tinsel Dec 21, 10:46 5

      - it feels like this was the plot of every 80s romantic thriller. the low-class trash trying to make it with Mr. 1%'s wife and getting the crap beat - prisoner 24601 Dec 21, 10:54 2
