Hello Support Group,

Well I was hoping to get some outsider feedback on my issue. My husband and I have been married for almost 4 years, but we dated for 6 prior to getting married. Throughout our relationship, his parents have never been on the same page on anything and "divorce" has been thrown in the air way too many times now. During this summer, his mom stayed at the beach and whenever possible the husband would join. His love affairs were no secret by this point. His mom has been playing the victim role and faily recently we found out that she too started seeing some prior to summer starting. When she talks to us she claims there is no love for her husband anymore, but she wants to move back in for her children, half brothers to my hubby. Past the summer, she allegedly stayed with her girlf friend but now I'm not too sure that was ever the case. She called us this weekend to move in with us, that she wanted to start looking for a place. Lately the husband has been going over and I'm at my wits end. They are taking over my life. Oh and to top things off, one of my husband's brothers moved in (about 4 months ago) because his step-dad kicked him out because he could stand looking at him.

" Stand your ground. It isn't YOUR fault there's an ugly divorce brewing. Let them know you need space from their drama and your own house. You don't have to let people dump weights on you, move into your house, or take all of your time. It's woderful you're helping, but it's not your burden and you need to set boundaries and limits. "
