writes:My husband recently admitted, after 24 years of marriage, that he's been having an affair with my gay brother for the past three years. They've just moved in together, leaving me with three kids (ages 16, 12 and 8) and all the bills to pay. I work full-time and barely make enough to make ends meet. I never got on well with my brother and used to badmouth him in front of my husband. To think that he was sleeping with him the whole time! What does someone do in a situation like this?

 This is a hard situation for you. And to handle it all by yourself is brave but at the same time stubborn. I believe your (ex?)husband still has an obligation and responsibility to support you and your 3 kids. He can't and should not just leave without looking back.
I think you have to lower your defenses here and ask him (and maybe even your brother too...) to help you make things right for all of you. It would be better if all of you would come at moot point so at least it becomes a healthy environment for the kids to grow.
Hope i was able to help. Please update us! :}

 No matter what happens, you are all in a family.
See if you can work out any workable solution to your predicaments.

 If I were you, I would try to keep them both as far away from my life as possible. Your life will be very hard, and I'm sorry for that, but I think you can also think of this situation as getting rid of the dead weight.
I wish you the best of lucks.
