I think You answered your own question
Quote From: ctackett01I feel I should tell my sister but, there are a lot of things that is stopping me. First of all she is on medication for depression, and I don't want her to end up in a mental inst. Next, after I told her husband that nothing would happen their releationship all of a sudden got better. I feel really unconfterable around him but it is not like I can keep from seeing him. My son loves him to death and I know that my sister would be really hurt, and I don't want her to take it the wrong way and be mad at me? Does this sound reasonable or does it sound like I am making up excuses? I think You answered your own question, now didn't you? It sounds like you are making excuses to me, but only you know for sure. I think it would drive your sister up a wall more, if she found out your bil hit on you and you didn't tell her, than if you just told her. Their relationship didn't get better, he was just worried you would tell his wife, so he began to behave. That shows you, he has the ability to behave when he "chooses" to behave. It's your life, and your decision. Yes, it will open a can of worms, but I would rather be on the side of truth than on deceit once the can is opened, and it very may open from a different direction, and you could be drug into it, if once he is caught with someone else, and tries to drag your name into it then. The acid test should probably be, if the situation were turned around, would you want your sister to tell you, or let your husband go around hitting on other women. I hope this helps
