People Who Slept With Their In-Laws Are Revealing How It Went Down, And I Can't Believe What I Read
I recently came across a Reddit thread where user u/haddamhussein69 asked "People of Reddit who have had sex with an in-law, what happened? How did you get into that situation? And did anyone find out?"
The stories they shared were beyond messy. Here are the most interesting ones:
1."I did the deed with my mother-in-law once. It still makes me feel dirty when I think about it. I was separated from my wife at the time (we were in the process of divorcing), and I went to my mother-in-law's house to help her move some furniture. Afterward, we ended up sitting around, having some cocktails, and talking about my separation from her daughter. Fast-forward to midnight and six drinks later, and all of a sudden, I'm looking at her with her jeans to her ankles and bent over the kitchen table. I swear to this day, I really don't know who made the first move or how it got to that point. It was crazy."
"I saw her numerous times after that, and neither of us acted strangely. We just erased it and acted like nothing ever happened. At the time, I was about 30 and my mother-in-law was about 50. I've never told anyone until now.

2."I dated my brother-in-law while he and my sister were married. They had an open relationship. They split up and we got married."

3."At the wedding of my sister and my brother-in-law, I slept with his sister. It makes for some awkward family gatherings, which I make worse by calling her sis."
—Smoke__Me__A__Kipper
4."I had a fling with my former sister-in-law. I split with my ex when she cheated on me back in 2011, and I effectively cut contact with that side of the family, including my sister-in-law. My sister-in-law was never on my bad side, per se, but it was easier to cut her out and call it a day than try to surgically remove everyone else but her. She wasn't a model, but she wasn't bad-looking either. She and I got along well enough during my marriage because we married into the insanity."
"Fast-forward to last year, I found out my ex-SIL (I'm long divorced by this point) and ex-wife's brother separated because ex-BIL started cheating on her. I unblocked her and reached out. I've been down this road and know how to handle the family in court, so I figure I'd lend assistance. I met up with my ex-SIL, helped her do some errands (ex-BIL left nothing for her, not even a car), then headed back and hung out. We started drinking, certain things came out about one another, and next thing I know, we're in the bedroom going at it. We met up a few times until about a month ago. She found a guy that she wants to date so I stopped becoming her Plan B. No one has found out, and I'm pretty sure it'd be a mess if anyone did."

5."I had a drunken hookup with my sister-in-law. I went to a NYE party because her family loves me, and we were all drinking, and my sister-in-law was being very friendly and nice and pulling me aside to ask about my life and stuff. Obvious signs are not being missed. A little after 1 a.m., I went to the bathroom, and my SIL followed me in. One thing led to another, and we had our fun. My mother-in-law heard noises and tried blackmailing us with it in exchange for money. We continued our sexy rendezvous over the next few months, and eventually her mom told people. We denied the hell out of it despite her mom revealing obvious proof, and we aren't invited to any more family get-togethers."

6."My great aunt married the boy next door at age 18 in 1945 or so. Turned out he was gay, and he wanted her to be his beard. She was very unhappy. Her husband was estranged from his father, who had already divorced his mother. So the father-in-law joined the Navy at the outbreak of the war and spent the war building airstrips all over the Pacific and Southeast Asia. He got back from the war and met his son's wife. He and my great aunt had instant chemistry. They apparently start banging almost immediately. He'd been off at war, and she's in a sexless marriage. So there was a lot of pent-up sexual energy."
"Of course, they get caught after a while. Mid-act, the son and ex-wife show up. It actually provided a great out for the gay son, as he could divorce her, be the wronged party, and now be single with no questions about his sexuality. My great-aunt suffered some social ostracism for this, as it was juicy gossip for the city they lived in. However, when the divorce came, she married her former father-in-law. They remained married until his death in the mid '90s (both his age and the year), after nearly 50 years together and three kids (plus grandkids). They were quite happy, but this story has always been one my mom kept from me until I was 30."

7."My brother decided to have an affair with his sister-in-law. He slept with his wife's brother's wife. It was messed up beyond belief. The pain it caused so many people is unbelievable, and two families were left in shambles. There are approximately three billion other women in the world with whom he could have attempted this with. But instead, he did something that was awful, without regard to his children, and created a situation that will likely end with two divorces."
—None
8."I had a one-night stand with a girl I met at a friend's party, and then a few years later, I was invited to my new girlfriend's parents' house for Thanksgiving, and her sister walked in. Yep, I slept with my sister-in-law before I even met my ex. They don't look alike, and nothing was ever said to my ex."
—Eldergoth
9."I married a man 10 years younger than me. He had a younger brother who was around 8 years of age at the time they met. My daughter from a previous relationship is the same age as my brother-in-law. They kind of grew up together. Fast forward to a year ago, she turned 18, dropped out of high school, and moved in with my brother-in-law and his parents (my in-laws). They all hid the fact that she was staying at my mother's and father-in-law's house from me. None of them thinks there is any issue with it, and cannot understand why I had a problem. It destroyed my marriage and the almost decade I put into building our lives together. We had two children together. I've never seen something that took a decade to build fall apart so fast. Obviously, there is more to it, but that is the summary. It destroyed my family. Keep it outside your family's for Christ's sake."

10."I met my husband through his brother. His brother and I dated several times before I met my husband, and began dating. My husband's brother and I had sex several times when we were dating and before I met my husband. I've always had a fond place in my heart for my now brother-in-law because of those special times we shared when we dated each other. My husband has always known his brother and I had sex when we dated, as well as knowing how close we are now because of those times in the past."
—None
11."My grandfather married his sister-in-law when his wife died, and my cousin married his son's mother-in-law. The second one is only really weird because both couples live with my great aunt in one house, and both have kids a few months apart. The two oldest girls are in the same school and grade."
—LordDinkus
12."I had sex with my brother-in-law, and my family does know but pretends not to. My sister was married for a short time to a guy who worked and lived abroad most of the year. I never particularly liked the man; I think he wanted to be married to an attractive younger woman who would pretty much do what he says. Also it was wild because he was away eight months of the year. My sister was young and naive in a lot of ways, didn't really get on with his friends and family, and generally felt like she'd been abandoned. Anyway, my sister, rather than live at his home when he was away, would move back in with my parents. He gave my sister access to a certain amount of money, and much hilarity ensued."
"So I was in my first year of university, and he found out that my sister had been cheating on him, not only that, she'd done it with several people he knew, and he was not surprisingly angry. My parents, being idiots, decided to hire a lawyer who made things worse, and then the issue over what was happening with the money came up. So I came home from university, and my family was about to be put out of their home. Also, I should mention he'd paid for some of my university expenses. I'm making this way too complicated, but essentially, I ended up having sex with him in return for him calming down, and letting my sister and family climb out of the financial hole they were in. The sex was pretty weird, and he enjoyed doing me in my sisters bed way more than he should have, in the end though he got out of my family's life and that was the end of it."
—katies_nothome
13."I had sex with my cousin-in-law. My brother's wife's niece. Not sure if it counts, but basically she was hot, we were teenagers, and got drunk at my brother's house one night after my brother and his wife had supposedly fallen asleep. The next morning, he told me, inadvertently, that he had heard everything since the vent to his guest room and his room allowed virtually all sounds to be heard between the rooms. Felt pretty awkward until he gave me a high five."
—ItsallLegos
14.And finally, "My kid brother got married before me to a woman with three sisters, two of them were twins. I ended up marrying one of the twins (thus marrying my sister in-law). And, wait for it...I had dated the other twin sister first."

My kids started having sleepovers in Kindergarten. They knew they could call me at any time and I would pick them up.
I loved sleepovers growing up and wanted my kids to enjoy the experience too. My kids started going to and hosting sleepovers when they were in kindergarten. They knew they could call me at any point and I'd pick them up. When I was growing up, sleepovers were a rite of passage. Although sleepovers are now a controversial topic, I didn't want to deny my kids the same experiences I had. I let them start having sleepovers as kindergartners, but we put one important non-negotiable rule in place. Some of my fondest childhood memories involve shimmying into my sleeping bag, holding a flashlight, and laughing with my friends until our eyes became too heavy with happy exhaustion to keep them open any longer. During these sleepovers, my friends and I watched movies, played games, and snuck snacks late into the night. Many of the rules my friends and I dutifully followed in our everyday lives vanished once the sun went down. Often, we had no bedtime, and junk food was no longer off-limits. I loved sleepovers so much that I requested a slumber party to celebrate every birthday. As a parent, I looked forward to my children experiencing the same joy that sleepovers had brought me as a child. As kindergarteners, they already had strong friendships. I knew most of the parents of their close friends well, and I started inviting their friends to spend the night. Some parents thought their kids were too young to start sleepovers in kindergarten, but others gladly allowed their kids to spend the night on a futon in my basement, appreciating the freedom to have a date night or spend one-on-one time with a sibling without having to hire a sitter. Watching my kids enjoy pizza and movies past their bedtime always brought a smile to my face. More kids than I can count had their first sleepover at my house, and I loved that so many parents and kids felt so comfortable with my family. At first, my kids preferred hosting sleepovers at our house, where they felt most comfortable. I never pushed my kids to sleep over someone else's house. However, I let them know that whenever they were ready, their friends were eager to host them for the night. Before their kindergarten year was over, each of my kids decided to pack their bags, grab their pillows, and have their first sleepover. As a 5-year-old, my daughter and I made the walk down the block and around the corner together for her first sleepover. She told me that she was equal parts nervous and excited. I reminded her of my one non-negotiable rule she had to follow. No matter what, if she started to feel uncomfortable for any reason, even in the middle of the night, she had to call me and let me know she wanted to be picked up. To make both my kids and me feel better, whenever they head out for a sleepover, whether as kindergartners or teens, I remind them that I will pick them up, no questions asked. This reassures both of us. When my kids were younger, I always let the host parents know that I expected my kids to be able to use the phone to call me at any hour, even if that meant waking them up in the middle of the night. No one ever took issue with this request. If they had, I would have called off the sleepover immediately. Now that my kids are older, they have their own phones and know they can, and should, use them if they want to leave a sleepover. My kids all know that when they are at sleepovers, I leave my phone on all night in case they need me. They also know that if they want an easy out, I will take the blame, telling the host family that there is a family emergency or an important event I had forgotten about so they don't need to feel embarrassed about being picked up or feel as though they owe a host family an explanation that might make them feel uncomfortable. Most sleepovers go off without a hitch. However, when my son was in sixth grade, my phone started ringing in the middle of the night. Groggily, I picked up to hear my son telling me he wanted to come home right away. I got in the car in my pajamas to pick him up, letting my son know that he didn't have to tell me what had happened, but that I was glad he called. I told him that I would tell the host family that I needed him to come home, but wouldn't elaborate. Weeks later, my son told me that he had gotten into what, in hindsight, was a minor disagreement with one of the boys at the sleepover. I reassured him that he did the right thing by calling the moment he felt uncomfortable. I was relieved that my years of telling my kids they could leave a sleepover anytime they wanted to come home had sunk in. Read the original article on Business Insider
