[quote=Anonymous]Yes, this is pretty unusual for a family to have a relationship with an ex-wife. If I were you, I would be watchful for what this means because it's not typical. Are they oddly enmeshed/codependent? Is the relationship with the ex-wife a way to guilt your BF? Is BF's family incapable of moving on from difficult events? One of the things I wished I understood when I married was that I was marrying my husband's family too. They're not the easiest in-laws to have. And, no, you can't control this situation. Whatever the dynamic is that created this relationship with the ex-wife, you won't be able to change it, and everyone would resent you for trying. If you can't live with it, then this relationship is not for you. It's heartbreaking, but it's absolutely better to know now. [/quote]
