Background:
My MIL decided marriage was not for her(again) last year and ended her 5 year marriage. At the time she decided this my husband and I were going through a very tough time and we had also split for a while. Mainly because of my husbands attitude to marriage. Which he obviously learnt from both of his parents,who seem to think that a bump in the road equals walking away without so much as a conversation. My husband and myself went to counselling and are now v happy and realistic!
Anyways my MIL decree came through this week and basically my BIL(husband's brother) text me to invite us to a surprise divorce party for my her. I think that it's incredibly insensitive given that we have just come through such a bad time (which he was well aware off) and I also don't think that a divorce is something to celebrate, especially given the fact that there was bloody nothing wrong with their marriage. (yes I know this to be true, MIL said herself he was a great man a great friend but she didn't like being married.) I can understand going out for a drink or whatever when the decree came through but a SURPRISE party??
