Question - (4 August 2008) 3 Answers - (Newest, 5 August 2008)
A female United Kingdom age 41-50, anonymous writes:

Im in love with my ex brother in law, we have known each other for 15 years and are really good friends. He went out with my sister 6 years ago and split up with her 2 years ago and they have a child together. There was always something there, it has been bubbling up for years.

2 months ago we went out for a drink and ended up sleeping together. We have been seeing each other quite often, my sister has found out and gone mental -which i can understand, and stopped my bil from seeing his daughter, so now he wants to cool it for a while and sort his head out.

He says he loves me and that he is in love with me, but he just needs a bit of time. What do i do? i really love him so much, give him time or walk away?

Hello,

If you really love someone... you'll do anything... I mean anything...You'll give yourown life for this person. The man is confused but if you have a bit of patience and tact it may all fall into places.

Good luck

sappygirl agony auntDefinitely give him his space. He needs to sort out his emotions. You don't have to walk away because you love him. But just wait for him. And if he comes back to you it's meant to me. If he doesn't, then you have to let it go and walk away.

i think give him the time. Think of it this way....you are the aunt of his child he loved your sister at one point and now loves you.....thats alot to take on.....give the poor guy a chance to let it sink in and really hit home. he also has a child to think about, even if he doesnt live with the child. And he seems like a smart guy, he relizes this will stur up your family, and already did with your sister and hes just being smart right now. Give him time to analyze the situation...and yo should do the same....find the best way you can deal with all this, and i garentee he is doing the same....so give hom the time. If you two truly love eachother, it will work out in the long run.

Good Luck!
