How many BS’s in this forum have been betrayed by a WS that had an A with a family member? This is a question that I have wanted to ask for quite some time now.

My WS had a long term A with my sister’s H and I feel that this has made the situation a million times harder to deal with. Because of two selfish people an ENTIRE family is now torn apart, no more holiday’s spent together etc………

How have any other BS’s dealt with this type of situation? Can you really move on given how many people were/are affected by the A?

Of course I don’t honestly believe that had it been a stranger it would be much easier to deal with, but when you are/were close to the family member, the betrayal for me is much more intense. He stood in my face for the entire duration as a friend and we spent a lot of time together. YUCK!!!! <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/mad.gif" alt="" />

Anyway, I am just curious about others feelings on this issue.

I recall similar situations being described here.

It really does introduce even more complications than "normal" <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> affairs.

The next worse case, I guess, is involvement of two very close but unrelated families, which was my case. Very ugly.

I don't have any suggestions, just validating your "yuck". Very YUCK!
