This is a somewhat long story, but I'm going to give it my best and try to explain it because I am at a serious loss for advice... I'm using fake names bust trust me names are necessary because this story is ridiculously confusing. My best friend, and MOH, Jane was also asked to be the maid of honor in her sister Sally's wedding. About a month before Sally's wedding, Sally started getting cold feet. She confided in Jane, her sister and MOH, who was so incredibly supportive of her during this time. Jane confided in me that she didn't want to be the person to convince her sister to get married if she wasn't ready, but also didn't want her to bail because of some last minute jitters, especially because Jane LOVES Sally's fiance Sam, and thinks they are perfect together. Sam is a very close family friend, so he is already like a brother to her. She ultimately told her sister that only she could decide if she was ready to get married, but not to wait until the last second to call if off. Sally's FI Sam could sense her hesitancy, and about a week before the wedding gave her an "out"- told her that she could have the house and the dog if she didn't want to marry him, but to please not leave him at the alter. Meanwhile Sally is pretty vague about her feelings with everyone, leaving poor Jane to wonder if her sister Sally would even show up to her own wedding. Fast forward a couple of days....Sally and Sam get married. Jane sends me a couple of pictures the day after the wedding, it was wonderful, everyone showed up and there was no drama. HURRAY! She had been so incredibly stressed out and could breathe a sigh of relief! Well, then the shit hit the fan. The day after Sally's wedding, she is hanging out with her husband Sam, her husband's sister Ali, and Ali's husband John. -I should note that Ali is Sally's best friend, and was a bridesmaid in her wedding the day before. I should also note that John & Sam are best friends, and Sam was John's best man in their wedding less than a year ago. Are you confused yet? Basically the four of them are best friends, and are all hanging out together, like they do every weekend. Ali (grooms sister) checks her husband John's phone because she suspects something fishy is going on, and finds a lot of texts from Sally (those were the only details I was provided). She confronts Sally & John, at which point Sally admits she had been sleeping with John for the past month. On multiple occasions. Keep in mind Sally has been married for 24 hours, and is now admitting to sleeping with her new sister-in-laws (and best friend/husbands sister) husband, who is her husbands best friend. Awesome. Of course all hell breaks loose (I would NOT have wanted to be at that party) and family calls start getting made...Turns out- the PARENTS of this lovely union are ALSO best friends, so the ripple affect is UNBELIEVABLE. Sally is promptly booted from her house, and now getting a divorce. Literally, 24 hours after getting married. The other couple is divorcing too. Jane is completely mortified and disgusted, and feels completely betrayed by her sister. Jane and Sally's parents are FURIOUS with Sally. After all, she not only ruined two marriages, but also destroyed their relationship with Sam's parents. Not to mention the money they threw down for a marriage that was a total sham (well that's my input but still, that's gotta sting)...Sally and Jane's parents REFUSE to take Sally in and won't even speak to her. Jane is now faced with the unfortunate decision of whether or not to take Sally in, because she has no where else to go. She had a matter of hours to digest this whole situation when Sam, being the incredible man he is, calls Jane and begs her to take Sally because despite ending their relationship he is still worried about her. He tells Jane that if there is ONE thing she could do for him, it would be to let Sally stay with her for a while. So that brings us to today, where Sally is officially living with Jane now. All of these events have occurred in a matter of 4 days. Jane is in an impossible situation, on one hand she will always love her sister Sally, but at the moment she pretty much despises her- it's a pretty fresh wound. Tensions are high in the house and she is a bag of nerves, understandably so. Jane is not eating and crying all the time. Sally seems unphased, like it hasn't really "hit her". Jane is married with a kid of her own, so that makes it a little more complicated. She is only doing this for Sam, because he asked, and is hoping her parents will cool off and eventually take Sally- but who knows what the future holds. I'm worried that when this all sinks in Sally is going to have a nervous breakdown, and it will be on Jane to take care of her. So I have 2 questions- First, what advice would you give Jane? How do you live with someone you aren't even close to forgiving? How do you work on forgiving someone when you don't have space or time to figure it out? How do you establish boundaries while also trying make sure Sally doesn't do anything harmful to herself? (I'm afraid to even mention this to her because I don't want to add to her stresses, but I see it as a very serious possibility- what if something happened and I regret not saying anything!?). How do I get my dear friend to stop crying and start eating again when she is smack-dab in the middle of it all? How do I help her get to a better, more positive place? I have no idea what to say to her. She's literally living in a nightmare. I'm seriously at a total loss. Second question- my wedding is a month away, and Jane is my MOH. Should I delegate some of the day-of responsibilities to other bridesmaids? Take a little off her plate? Let it just be a sit-back-and-relax with the bride kind of day? I really don't mind, between my FI and I we have 5 sisters so there is more than enough helping hands for wedding-day details and general BS. I don't want her to feel like she isn't doing anything either, because I know she will want to be involved- taking stuff off her plate wouldn't make her feel like any less of a MOH right? I just want to do the right thing. She'e so overwhelmed and the timing for my wedding couldn't be worse. PLEASE HELP.
