Extremely awkward chaotic romantic entanglements

I have a thread about this in L&R with more detail, but I'll sum it up as best I can here.

I'm 31, and I stupidly married a petulant but cute 20 year old when I was 29, and boy was she not ready to quit partying. She has a mental issue called 'Borderline Personality Disorder', along with substance abuse issues in her history, so yeah I really do know how to get myself in a pile of trouble. Long story short, I end up finding her cheating on me with a drug dealer scumbag, her own brother (my roommate now) helped me find out, so she 'disowned' him. So I kicked her to the curb, and am awaiting the divorce to go through.

That's fucked up enough, but now we get to the good(?) part. I'm helplessly in love with my wife's older sister, who instead of being a distant, detached ice cube, is a soulful, artistic, beautiful local singer/songwriter. Hmm. She sends me incredible notes, and we steal moments together whenever we can, but we haven't done anything very serious just yet.

But wait, it gets better. She's married. Yeah I'm terrible, I've heard it all in the other thread, and chances are, I'll agree with the insults you lob my way.

There's more. She's married to one of my best friends, and one of the nicest people I've ever known.

I = FAIL @ life & romance.

I'm not some lovestruck kid, I've literally never felt this way about anyone or anything in my entire life. She has changed everything I've ever thought I knew about life or love, shattering most of it, and adding texture and impact to every song and each moment of my off-the-rails life.

So, say what you will, I'll keep you posted on developments, probably back in the main L&R thread. I can understand how terrible most of you will probably think I am, but that's just where I'm at right now.

I'll go ahead and start it off with a favorite reply in my other thread 🙂

You knew that this was L&R and yet you cross-posted in OT.

The grass is always greener on the other side my friend. There are billions of people on this planet, whatever connection you think you have with this woman you can have with somebody else who isn't married to your best friend.

But you won't listen to anyone's advice here, nobody ever does when it comes to relationships. You have to make the mistakes yourself to truly learn, and even then most people don't.
 
Write a memoir about it, publish later, profit!

Oh and if it wasn't asked for in the L&R thread, pics of both the 20 year old ex-wife and her sister, STAT.
 
Keep this crap in L&R. You want to screw up your life, go for it. But now you're wanting to screw up other people's lives as well.
 
Why are you stressing? Has the Joker taught you nothing?

Be an Agent of Chaos! Be wild and unhinged. Make sure your soon to be ex is vilified and basically run out of town and marked as the whore that she is. In the meantime, create your own sexual diversion with this other chippie and make sure all parties are miserable -- except yourself, that is!

And smile!
😀
