September 2012 Moms

What to do..

Ok this is really messed up and I am just as shocked as all of you will be! I will try to keep it short!

My sister has been with her boyfriend for almost 6 years now and just recently she found out he was cheating. They have two kids together a 4 year old and a 2 year old. She found out that he went to a Riverboat and stayed with a girl but chose to give him more chances. Well this was back around Thanksgiving. She moved in with my dad because she decided it would be best to move out(duh). Well her boyfriend's other woman just added me on Facebook and announced that she is in fact 9 weeks pregnant. Do the math that would of been right before Thanksgiving and that's when they went to the Riverboat. My sister doesn't know and she is depressed anyways and I don't know how to tell her and neither does my other sister! 

If anyone has any advice on what to do. I live 6 hours from her and can't really be there for her and I want to tell her in person. 

I feel so horrible for her kids and her. I guess I just needed to talk about this because I really have nobody to talk to about this with. My fiance works all the time and you ladies are my go to advice givers!

Re: What to do..

  • I honestly have no idea what to say. Is there someone who lives near her that you trust to tell her. Someone who will be there for her like you are? It might be easier for them to break the news. 

    This might be a dumb question but why in the world did the other woman add you on Facebook and why did you accept it? Not judging at all just seriously curious.

    Can I ask, though: why are you friends with the other woman on FB? Is she someone you're actually friends with? That seems bizarre to me.  

    get out of my head!

  • Do you have a way to contact the boyfriend? I would let him know that his mistress is posting on FB that she is pregnant and he needs to tell your sister.

    I would stay out of it for the time being, lest your sister take it out on the messenger. And really, she should hear it from her boyfriend. I don't know how long I would wait for him to 'fess up, but I'd give him a bit of time first now that the other woman has come out publicly as being pregnant.

    Can I ask, though: why are you friends with the other woman on FB? Is she someone you're actually friends with? That seems bizarre to me.  

    She requested to be my friend on facebook a couple nights ago and I was curious so I accepted it... Now I know why she did it so I would see her big news! She knows our last name so I imagine it has something to do with that. And I am friends with her cousin. I played sports with her cousin.

    It's so messed up and I am butting out but I don't want her to be mad at me.

    He changed his number and the only one that has it is my sister ! I have thought of so many things! This just blows my mind that she is posting it though. He doesn't have a Facebook he deleted it because she kept writing stuff on his page and posting pictures of them together. And he told my sister she does it to make my sister break up with him. My sister is a little loopy in the head she always has been but for her to stay with him amazes me.

    Wait. Why the fcuk did she add you as a friend on FB? This doesn't make sense to me. 

    ETA: It would help if I didn't open threads in new tabs and not check for replies. 

    Seriously to be honest with you I was curious as to why she was adding me. Normally I wouldn't add people I don't talk to but I knew it was her and was wondering why she was adding me. She seems weird and stalkerish in a way! I blocked her from my Facebook last night after I read her big surprise news.

    All of this makes me opine that you need to unfriend the mistress (why did you accept in the first place?) and stay as uninvolved in the drama as you possibly can.

    This. I hate to say it but it kind of seems like you added her because you wanted to be in the drama. 

  • Maybe I missed this, but is he still with your sister or with the other girl now?

    He's still with my sister. He is buying her whatever he wants and buying the kids stuff so he doesn't have to pay child support. I am sure the other girl will go to court though. My other sister is with her now she might tell her. But you ladies are right he should be the one to tell her. I know he knows because they work at the same place,same shift and same department.

  • Just a thought, but if the other person is a little crazy, maybe she's not pregnant. To add you and then make a big announcement. Seems odd to me. If she's trying to get the guy to leave your sister, this would be a good way.

    I'd stay out of the drama.

  • Yeah I decided to play it off like I have no idea! I unfriended her she is gone outta my life. lol

    I love my sister to death and I am very close to her. I will just leave it alone. I shouldn't of let my curiosity get the best of me I shouldn't of accepted because now I know information I wish I didn't know! Thank you for the advice and letting me talk to you ladies. It's all been going on for too long and now he will pay the price. Sucks to be him and I feel horrible for all the people getting hurt by this. He is not in that girls life either anymore he is with my sister so if my sister sends in child support papers(he talked her out of it but she has them) and the other girl does too he will be paying for three kids.... He needs to keep his *** in his pants and my sister needs to just leave him for good!

  • Taylor, I went through this same situation with my BFF, only it wasn't a riverboat, it was a clubhouse.  It was drama city.  If I could go back and do it over, I'd pretend I  knew nothing and never, ever, ever say that I knew anything before she did.  Ever.

    Hopefully your sister will get herself and her kids out of this mess and not play into the drama this girl clearly wants to cause.

    Also, this situation reminds me of why I believe in mandatory sterilization.

    Good luck to your family!

    Haha thanks Marisa! We are so much alike it is crazy! But yes I am worried about the kids and her. My sister hasn't always handled anything well and she isn't strong enough to live without him I think. She said she's afraid of being alone so I just want to protect her. She is 27 years old she needs to be the one guiding me but nooo it's always been the other way around. I think the whole situation is batty as sh*t. I hate cheaters... It makes me sick that he did this. I would be so heartbroken if my s/o did this to me. I will just sit back and let him tell her but I will be there for her when she does find out.
