[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op here. So I took a walk with my sister today. She said all week BIL was not sure if wanted to go with his AP or be with my sister. He had a fantasy that they could coparent beautifully and he could have an easy relationship with AP. As he (and his friends) have helped realize this week, he's realizing how much he F*ed up. Now he is VERY remorseful, talked about childhood trauma/lack of attachment/attention to parents, etc. They are going to couples counseling. He says he is very committed to making it work. We'll see how it goes. Sister finally told my mom today. She was surprisingly accepting/not mad at BIL.[/quote]

If your sister stays with this schlub she is a doormat. I honestly think she should at least kick him out for a good amount of time to see how they both feel about it.[/quote]

Everyone's weighing in on whether she should take him back...  Uh, when he came clean, HE was dumping HER to go be with the AP.  Now I guess he's backpedaling, but there's way too much disrespect here to ever forgive. [/quote]

Op here...yep, this is what I think too. Unfortunately, because he's actually saying he wants to fix things/do whatever it takes and is talking about childhood trauma, I think sister is going to go the couple's counseling/individual counseling route and try to fix this.[/quote]
