SIL Travel Partner

[Anonymous]

SIL (~35 years old, married to my brother for 7 years, mother of 4 kids) regularly travels out of town and camps with a similarly aged, unmarried male firefighter friend for 1-2 weeks at a time. Just the two of them.

Everyone I explain this to immediately thinks affair. Thoughts?

LOL - You know you are going to be skewered for gossiping to 'everyone' about your SIL, right? Apparently your brother knows already. What is your role, exactly?

Gossiping busy body is the first thing that stood out to me from this post and everyone I shared it with immediately agreed.

Why do you have to explain this to anyone?

Those kids are not your brothers.

Well OP maybe your brother is into it.

I think it’s weird so I’m asking for others opinions.

You’re not a part of your brother and SILs relationship. They are the only 2 people that need to be comfortable with what she does. Your opinion and thoughts on the arrangement do not matter.

I have not shared my thoughts with them. I’m asking a bunch of strangers on an anonymous board what they think.

We think we don't care and are curious why you do so much.

It doesn't matter what we think.

It matters what your brother thinks. Presumably he knows the arrangement and is fine with it. In that case, then why are you trying to stir up trouble?

Again, unclear how asking stranger for an opinion causes trouble.

Don't act like your asking a question is all innocent. You clearly have your own opinion and judgment and are just looking for other ppl to back you up. We can see through you.

Your brother and SIL clearly have some kind of agreement. Maybe he has a gal pal of his own.
