Now Comes My STBX Mother-in-law 

Late last night, I talked with my stbx mother-in-law. We have our differences, but for the past 10 years, we are doing fine. A few times, she even told me she would treat me like her own daughter. Our conversation eventually came down to the divorce. She disapproved my decision to change the petition based on adultery. She insists my stbx did not cheat on me and what he does after he moved out the house has nothing to do with me either. I tried to explain the Texas law for her, and she said if that is the case, she knows a lot of people who committed adultery and none of them filed for at fault divorce. She even asked me what my motives are for persuing such a nasty proceeding. I have no clue the moment I started to stand up for myself, I have become the "nasty" one. I told my stbx mother-in-law, at this moment I believe my attorney is looking out for my best interests and I simply have to follow her (my attorney's) advice. Would my stbx mother-in-law treats her own daughter like this?

I wouldn't let your STBX mother in law affect how you feel about the divorce. Her only concern is her son and as Branny and ec said, he can do no wrong in her eyes. Look forward to the day when the both of them will be out of your life.

He could burn down an orphanage and she would say" oh, it's ok, they were unwanted anyway..." People like that make me sick .So it sounds like you will be getting rid of 2 brainless people in your life. Did you ask her what she got her son and spiritual wife for their commitment ceremony?????? Too bad you can't teach common sense. She had a motive and I wouldn't talk to her, not even about the weather. Tell her you had to file under the :adulterer clause", because the "asshole clause"  hasn't passed yet. Good luck Alison. Keep in touch.

NOPE, I bet she wouldn't. This is her baby boy that may do no wrong in her eyes.  Maybe you should have asked what her motives were in comming to you fishing for answers regaurding the un-marrying of her son and you.  Loyalties still run deep for some people no matter who is right & wrong blood runs deep for some. Be careful with that one. And your lawyer does have your best interest at heart. GOOD LUCK!!
