More family drama

[papie]

My brother is "separated" from his wife. I put the quotes because he says it is over while she says he just needs some breathing room and they are still in love. So who the fuck knows, my brother loves drama. My mom is flipping out. Especially since he showed up at the family restaurant with his tattooed barmaid girlfriend (I have nothing against tattoos and barmaids, my mom does) and her kids. The restaurant where SIL also works. But he claims to have lots of girlfriends, lol.

He also thrives on airing his dirty laundry in public and spends countless hours talking to all his employees (friends?) about his wife and girlfriend and all that. Yes this is the same brother who is apparently a swinger.

Latest drama: my mom just called me in a panic because she heard from a waitress that my brother's ho' (lol) may be pregnant and it may be his. And when said waitress asked him what he would do if his wife was pregnant he said "she is not worthy of being a mother". Omg

I am dying here. My mom is crying but this is just too much entertainment right now. My bet before this latest news was that they will be back together by the end of the month, but if this is true (big IF), who knows?

I will keep you guys updated of course.

He is making me appreciate my own basement dwelling brother.

[wowhead]

Hehehehe I love other people's drama.

[papie]

I feel bad being so entertained but it is like a soap opera, lol.

he has a wife and a girlfriend and each know about each other?

They know each other, his wife thinks she is just a friend.
Since they are swingers, we wonder if they are also in an open relationship and maybe she knows that he sleeps with the girlfriend?

[VeryViolet]

So your brother said his wife isn't worthy of being a mother or his gf isn't? Either way this sounds like a telenovela.

Lol

I can't imagine why they are having marital problems. 

If only your brother and nuggetbrain's sister could meet.

:/

[papie]

He just updated his FB status to: "Turning the page on a huge part of my life. Now I am starting over" and switched his status to separated. You guys, I am actually sad. I adore my SIL. I hope he is just overdramatizing. My mom will die and kill us all with her.

[papie]

But he still has his wedding picture as his profile and timeline.

I am turning into my mother with all this analyzing, lol.

Even if they have issues I feel bad for your SIL with him parading this stuff in front of her. Will your parents fire her/she quit? I hope she'd leave on her own!! Awkward!

[pantsparty]

Yikes. How awkward. I can't believe he is posting this all over Facebook!

My parents are totally on her side.  My brother and my parents are all owners, but my mom is technically SIL's boss.  I feel bad for her also because she has a business degree and when she graduated 3-4 years ago, decided to stay to run the restaurant with my brother eventually instead of doing her own thing.  I TOLD HER TO GET AN OFFICE JOB.  She wouldn't be dependent on him now.  Ugh.

I know!

I'll have to update my mom tonight, she doesn't have facebook.  Also, they live in a small town with a TINY greek community.  My mom calls me every day paranoid to ask what he has put on FB because So and So made a comment and she wonders what they know.

Hopefully she can ignore his antics long enough to find a good job somewhere else then. Or they'll get back together lol. Keep us posted!

Is this the brother who also co-owns the restaurant with your dad?

This is making me laugh much more than it probably should.  Your family really needs a reality show.

Yes and who can't do it anymore because he works so hard he will DIE in that restaurant. So my 68 yo dad gave up on him and is picking up all the slack.

Your brother is a swinger? I missed that update! OMG.

All this mess after 32 years of in-home, direct parenting by your mom.
