My boyfriend has been separated from his legal wife for 5 years. His family still calls her in-law?
diva4luvn asked:
His sisters still refer to her as their in-law and it doesn’t seem right to me. His sister gave birth last December and she calls the baby her niece. Does this seem right or does somebody need to put her in her place. Any opinions. We are working towards a divorce, but she is not willing to sign the papers. We have to get an attorney but can’t afford one right now.

She is legally married to him. She is his wife. If you can’t handle sleeping with a married man and all of the baggage that comes with it, then leave. MrsRed

Why are you concerned with her ? They can call her anything they want and have whatever type of relationship they want with her . It’s the guy you’re going to marry that matters . og

She’s the wife so yes she is still an in-law. You’re not an ex until you get a divorce. Heather

Just because he isn’t with her anymore doesn’t mean his whole family is divorcing her.
She’s likely going to be at least a peripheral fixture in his life forever, especially if he has kids with her. Deal.
That baby IS her niece.
My aunt and uncle divorced 18 years ago, but I still consider him my uncle. He’s always been good to me.

They are still legally married and therefore his family IS her “In-Laws”…
This means you should be put in YOUR PLACE…
Considering they are STILL MARRIED this means that YOU are sleeping with a MARRIED MAN…
Maybe she won’t sign the papers in hopes of reconciliation… A couple CAN and sometimes DO reconcile up until the final divorce decree is signed by the judge…
In other words… HE is CHEATING on HIS WIFE with YOU… Legally, the courts can find him at fault for infidelity (in a “at fault” state)…

It is really none of your business as to how his family refers to her. Even if they were divorced they still have a right to refer to her as they wish. You are really starting out on the wrong foot with them. You need to back off and let him handle the divorce him self. Larry E

I do hope you know what you’re talking about, because no divorce takes 5 years.
Unless there’s a house, pension, a marriage of 10+ years, a large amount of money and a bunch of kids involved, there’s is zero reason why his divorced shouldn’t have been final a long time ago. A lot of people don’t sign their own divorce papers….that doesn’t mean the court doesn’t divorce them anyway. His mommy

Did you say separated or divorce? Sorry girl, but as long as she holds the title, she’s still the reigning champ! Apparently, whatever is going on between your husband, his wife and his family is THEIR business. You don’t have any honors, you’re only a girlfriend. You can’t be angry at them for STILL caring about her. You don’t know what kind of relationship they all had when she and your boyfriend were together. This is a private club and you need to know your place, so don’t try overturning things, they will hurt your feelings. blu
