Interesting WWYD

So I started thinking this morning...

Lee Anthony (Casey Anthony's brother) is engaged (has been I believe for some time now).

WWYD if you were his future bride?  Would you stay knowing the life you may lead with his family & sister in tow?  It would be your way out at this point.  Would you stay for better or worse?

Reminder:  The family is currently getting death threats and Lee has been accused of possibly touching Casey.

Re: Interesting WWYD

  • I'm being 100% honest and saying if I was not completely and overly head over heals for him I'd be out.

    And by I mean head over heals he would have to have mega looks, money, personality, the whole package.  I'd need lots of incentives to make up for his sister.

    Could you imagine buying her a holiday gift?

    So all in all-I'd sadly probably be out.  And I may be totally terrible for admitting so.

  • I'd be out, but family was (is?) a non-negotiable part of the package for me.

  • You're not terrible for admitting that - living with all of that for the next few years can be completely overwhelming.

    To be quite honest, I'm not sure I could handle that. I don't have the best in-laws in the world, but at least they live on the opposite side of the country and I never see them or talk to them. With this situation though...the media's going to be hounding them for weeks after this, and no telling when [or if] that family will find peace and quiet again. She will always be tied to that family if she marries him, and tied to the stigma that will come with it.

    I think in the end, I'd stick with him - if I loved the guy and knew that he wasn't anything like what the media was saying, I'd stay. But I also think the wedding would be postponed [or even canceled - just elope] indefinitely until things quieted down. Such a tough situation to face though.

  • I'm pretty sure I'd be out. Honestly, craziness is in the blood and I don't think I could deal with that. I'd constantly be wondering when he was going to crack or do something bizarre. Plus even the possibility that he sexually abused any child would have me running for the hills.
  • I'd be out of there unless we lived far away and were completely estranged.

  • I'd bounce.

  • E signed off his parents for me. If this guy would do that with her, I think I could stick around.
  • It would be tough to decide and would depend totally on him. Just because the family's messed up wouldn't mean that my fiance was. If he were willing to cut ties or disown his family for the sake of our relationship, I would stay with him. But, if he wanted to still be involved with his families' lives and have a relationship with them, I would have to get out.

    This is pretty much how I feel.  Also, there is no way in God's green earth if I were to have children with him they'd be anywhere near his parents or sister.  I don't think I could ever trust ANY of them!  I'd be out.
