I am 28 and I have struggled with my love life expectations all along. My parents are a two wives one husband family. For most all my life I grew up with both moms, except for a very short trial period when I was 14 when my father tried having us live in a duplex. My mother hated it, my other mother hated it and us kids hated it, why separate us? Dad gave in and we were back together.

Now this is the thing, my younger by four years half sister finished college and came to join my husband and me. We have been married one very short year and I had to tell my husband he was getting wife number 2. From as far back as I remember my sister and I always planned on living together, I just forgot to tell him. He is not supportive of my parents’ life and I thought I could walk the walk with him but I can’t, my sister is going to live with us and he needs to treat her as a wife. She is wife number 2 and he needs to be husband number 1 to her.

Or we leave, but I haven’t been able to tell him that.
