the one that says "Well, This is Awkward".

:-S

Friend request on Facebook, from.... my ex sister-in-law.

My brother's ex-wife, they divorced about 20 years ago!

I'm tempted.......... because I always liked her.......... and I don't talk to that brother anyway, have had NO contact with him for 10 years (if you knew him, you wouldn't want to talk to him either!).

We don't live anywhere near each other........ she's halfway across the country from me, not likely to drop in for coffee :-D

Tempting but could be awkward as you might get sucked in to talking about your brother which could cause problems in the family

I have let things slip in conversations and thought whoops shouldn't have said that

It's easy to get carried away in the flow of chat .

But there again if you set the ground rules at first it could work

That's the weird part.......... I wouldn't want to talk about that brother any more than she would!


I'm in touch with their daughter, and she never mentions either of her parents (smart girl) :-D
