He was a Mafia Man, would you know it!?

Well, my in-laws called to tell us that they had learned of something new about the guy (their son-in-law) which would bring a whole new light to the story.  Would you know it?  He was in the Mafia!  That's right, the mafia.  Another good ol' mafia story!  What a sleaze.  My sister-in-law is already a co-dependent so it's no surprise she'd be carried away in the delusions.  But I was actually surprised when my in-laws believed every word they heard about him.  They said, "you don't even know ___, and we do."  Reality is you don't have to know someone to know they are a liar.  Andy and I have no regrets and we'd expose him in a minute all over again if we had to, because he is mooching off of his in-laws now.  How convenient he gets off parole and marries the next lady who will take him.  I'm sorry for her.  I really am.  But whatever!

I guess the ex-mafia member had to run away from New York to Montana so he could break away from the mafia family. With no place to go, nothing to live off of, he was forced to resort to using his brother's identity to open an account in his name...just to survive!  What a brave man!  O my gosh..how many times has he been married?  Three or four?  Doesn't matter.  He was a mafia man! HAH!!! 

The entire line of B.S. that my sister-in-law relayed to my father-in-law, which was told to her by her husband, before they were married, when they went on their 2nd date.  This is so outlandish!!  SO far fetched!  Well, I suppose it's true, Andy's sister can do no wrong, she has always been the perfect child and her happiness is of the utmost importance to their parents that they are willing to do anything to keep her happy.  Including believing in someone who is a fraud, so that she will keep her happy living the lie.  They want so desperately to believe anything that she says, that all logic has been left behind.  Not even their own son's pleas for better judgement would get them to think about it! 

Talking to a parole officer is not going to get you any information, let's just put that out there.  How easy is it to be introduced to someone's parole officer during routine visits?  Well, parole officers meet people's girlfriends every day.  So just because she went into town to talk to his parole officer doesn't mean he gave her a complete listing of the guy's criminal background.  Especially about his "mob family"!  Which mob family by the way?  Actually a real parole officer will not divulge any information other than "yes, he's' done time and no he won't kill you."    

Alright, this is so ridiculous and frustrating after listening to his parents insist that he's wonderful.  Now he's probably going to be a hero to them since he's graduated from the mob.  They believe 100% in the lying buffoon's mafia story, I had to leave the room for a minute because I was broadsided by the reality that Andy had not been exaggerating all these years!  His sister does have them wrapped around her little finger. 

Mark my words.  There will be some broken hearts in the future!  I don't know how far down the road, but the man can't live a lie forever.  Maybe she can be added to his stack of divorcee's.
