[quote=Anonymous]My brother went through an ugly divorce--because he had an affair, because he used family members, without us knowing, to cover up said affair, because he just walked out one day and drained all their joint accounts, refused to pay child support, and so on. I did and continue to have a relationship with my former sister-in-law (and fwiw, have no contact with my brother these days).

My brother made the same demands--don't have any contact with his ex. He can make all the demands he wants, but we are all adults and free to make our own decisions about who we interact with and how we do so. My brother showed his true colors. So did his ex; she remained gracious and put forth a lot of effort to ensure that her children continued to have relationships with with grandparents, aunts, and uncles.

OP, continue to live your life as you see fit. You are under zero obligation to allow your brother to dictate who you have a social relationship with, and under even less obligation to run anything on your social calendar by him. And if he gets all pissy about that, well, that's on him.[/quote]
