I guess I am having a difficult time understanding the fuck up. Like, shack up the olds together so they can be independent longer. Plus, if they move in together, holiday visits require travel to just one place instead of two or worse, having to choose which family to see for which holiday.
I wonder if the OP refers to their spouse as stepbro/stepsis now (I totally would, jokingly, and in front of said parents)
I know a couple whose single parents got together and theyre perfect for each other. Threw me for a loop at first but hey, everyone's happy.
Oh I got one better. My stepfather's father married his ex-wives mom making his ex-wife his sister. What a shit show during the holidays!
And no not backwoods BS we come from big money, its was a nightmare.
I had no skin in the game so I watched from the sidelines w/ popcorn...
TIFU by helping two people find happiness. You wot, mate?
Their parents didn't meet before they got married?
I have told some of this story here before but I had some friends in high school. They started dating. At first their parents thought they were too young to date, and then the parents met each other. Blablabla The parents promised to wait until the kids graduated high school to get married because that would "make it weird" according to the mom. Like a month after graduation the kids eloped and then the parents stopped being so weird. Well, a little. Then half a year later the parents got married.
Both couples are still together, so good on them for figuring it out.
The ex of a girl I dated in high school ended up her cousin by marriage and they kinda just rolled with it.
What are you doing, step-spouse?
That’d make holiday season more convenient
God forbid two grown adults want to fuck each other.
This happened to my mother and father in law. It was awkward but they did get married first so they claim they aren't the weird ones.
What are you doing step bro?
