[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why are you treating the GF that way, but not your brother?  They were equal partners in the end of your brother's marriage.  It seems misogynistic to hold the whole thing against the female in the relationship.  [/quote]

I think it’s a little different because he is family and she isn’t (yet).

But there does seem to be less antipathy toward the brother in law than is warranted based on how much OP dislikes the OW. [/quote]

So because he is family it makes it more ok that he cheated? That's not how that works. Family or not he still cheated on his wife and he is just as much to blame for the affair. If anything you should be harder and expect more from your family.[/quote]

That's exactly how it works. You've never heard a parent say "not my angel!" when someone accuses their kid of messing up. My brother is a cad, and as far as I know he hasn't cheated on his wife, but if he did I would absolutely hold my ground like OP. His wife has been a saint for putting up with him all the years they've been married. If my brother didn't like the consequences, I wouldn't miss him too much. [/quote]

I think you misunderstood what I was saying. I wasn't saying that people don't think that way when it comes to family but that it shouldn't work that way. Brother shouldn't get a free pass because family.[/quote]
