recently my brother and sister in law split. They aren't divorced yet but my brother already has a girlfriend. My sister in law was cheating on my brother and this is the reason for the Divorce. So do 2 wrongs make a right. Or should he have waited to start seeing this other girl. I understand he was hurt and felt like he needed someone to fall back on. And he seems to really like her but I dont want him to get hurt again because he may be moving too fast. Anyone else been in this situation.

I believe you do as you feel, sometimes to get over a hurt it is better just to go and find someone new...I think it is best to go get on with life as it can be so short, if he likes this new girl then I think he should just go along with it....who knows what tomorrow will bring...

That makes perfectly good sense as he is super happy now. And is actually carzy over this girl. They have known each other for a while, she is someone he works with and really enjoys talking to.

You are a nice sister melissa911. My husband was divorce from his first wife because his ex cheated him while his working in other place. When my husband come home from work the step son told him that his mother have somebody slept with her in their room. He was shock and sad for what happened. She loved his ex so much that he almost killed himself. He said that before that happened his ex told him that she will left him. He did not believe it because she dont have any reason to do that. But she is not satisfied of her life to my husband so thats why she find another man. My husband dont like divorce but the ex said if he will not file a divorce paper she will be the one to do that. He felt very bad and almost killed himself of sadness and heartaches. He scared of finding another woman after the divorce but the brothers and sisters of my husband try to find someone for him and try set a date. And thats being so nice of them but the problem he dont like the woman that his brod. and sis wants him to met. He found me in the internet thats it we got married.

i think that your brother and your sister in law are not ment for each other if they did this... though, you may be right, he might be moving to fast. usually things like this take time to heal... and maybe he is going through a recovery period. in this case, his curent girlfriend is going to get hurt, not him. let him do as he feels. all the best!

Thank you for your responce, Him and this new girl have actually been getting along wonderfully. He is happier than I have ever seen him. Maybe it was just meant to be.

I haven't been in this kind of situation...cause I don't really have a brother. hehe.. but anyway, isn't it kinda too early for him to be involve in another relationship? And putting the "you don't want him to get hurt again" issue...I think his not suppose to date yet cause their not yet divorced. And it doesn't justify the fact that his wife is cheating on him for him to cheat back. I'm not against your brother or anything...but I think he should wait for the divorce for him to see other girls again. Uhm, I hope you don't mind me asking..do they have kids already?

they do have 1 child togethor, I feel it is better for them to go they're seperate ways. He is still young. He will only remember them being apart. But if they stay togethor, He will remember the onostop fighting and arguing.
