Today, my boyfriend informed me that the mother of his children, from whom he is not divorced yet, is moving back into his house because she broke up with her boyfriend and has nowhere to go. FML

I believe the technical term for that woman is, um, . . . wife.

Come on y'all. I know most of you have never been through a divorce (neither have I) but when you have kids with someone, you'll have a link to them for life. Not an emotional one necessarily, but literally you're going to have to interact with them a lot as long as your kids are minors. If you're uncomfortable with your boyfriend interacting with his soon to be ex-wife, then end it now, because it's not ever going away.

That's why you shouldn't date married men, whether they are supposedly "separated" or not! YDI.

If the choice is between putting the mother of your children on the street and making your new girlfriend happy, in what world is denying your kids' mother a place to stay the better option? If OP's boyfriend ends up back with the ex-wife, that should tell us all something about whether or not the relationship was truly over and if they're not through, it'll probably happen regardless.

Also, use some common ******* sense. If the mom has nowhere to go, do you think the kids have a place to go? Since, you know, parents provide those things?

I can swear you took this from a movie!

To be honest, you deserve it for dating a married man. Just like everyone else is saying-He's thinking about his kids, or atleast he should be. What did you expect. A parent with common sense is always going to think what's in the best interest for the children.

Any chance your name is Mona and his name is Ross?

"From whom he is not yet divorced." Just saying. But you were so close! :D

Gee, maybe NOT dating a married man who clearly has some commitment issues would help... Just a thought. After all if he wasn't faithful to her what makes you think he'll be faithful to you? Think things through, is this really a FML, or is it a wake up call?! Sorry to sound bitchy, but you deserve everything you get in this relationship!

The reason you sound bitchy is because you're assuming way to much. Who said he started datind OP before the divorce was filed? Yes, tecnically he is married, but many people begin dating before their divorce is finalized. That doesn't mean that the boyfriend has commitment issues.
