Last night my brother and his wife came over.. My daughter was in the bathroom and my brother said he needed to use the toilet so he went to my mom's house (around the corner) and his wife sayed here. My bother was gone for almost 30 minutes. After he came and picked up his wife, my mom called me and asked if his wife had been on the phone. I said no she was sitting by me the whole time and was not on the phone. My mom said she came home and heard my brother on the phone in the bathroom talking to someone calling them "babe" and asking when they were gonna hook up again... among other things... My mom asked him who he was talking to and he said his wife.. (not true, she was not on the phone) My mom later talked to my brother and told him she knew for a fact he was not on the phone with his wife and wanted to know who it was... He told her it was his friend Nando. My mom asked me to call Nando and ask when is the last time he talked to my bro and Nando said last week.. So obviously he wasnt talking to his wife or Nando and it had to be an OW... My mom is upset and wants to confront him.. Should I tell my sister in law? Should I leave it up to my mom? I dont want to mess up my relationship with my brother but I feel so bad after all I have been through with my cheating H and I sort of feel like I should tell her, but I dont want to get involved either...

I'm horrified! I knew my insurance would go up due to getting a new car but I didn't expect it to go up over $2,000. I did have an accident with the snow/ice in the winter. I was just telling my brother that I have had my car since March 2, 2026 and have only spent $75 on an oil change. Now this! I called another insurance company and their quote was over $4,000. I guess I have to pay...

best of luck. xoxo
Your brother is toying with your Sister-in-laws feelings and he is the reason most of us are here. Tell your brother to MAN UP and tell his wife. Then if he wants to work it out - they need to go into counseling. Maybe he can salvage whats left - if not - then it's all on him.
As for you - if he doesn't "man up" then by all means do what you can to save her from the humilation most of us on DS has had to deal with. It took me 13 years to finally realize that my husband was still playing the field and that he would never change. Please don't let that be her.
I always put myself in other peoples' shoes. If it was happening to me, I would want others to tell me, regardless of the circumstances. Therefore, I feel that I should tell others in that type of situation. Your brother should have the opportunity to do it but mean business with him because 9 times out of 10, cheaters will say they will do it but turn and run the other way.
