Looks like this case wasn’t sibling’s spouse. It’s sibling’s spouse’s sibling. In the US, they should not be technically your in-law. But I don’t think it’s weird to use it here and kinda surprised people cared.
Yeah, I personally wouldn’t argue with them about that. People are really overly pedantic. I wouldn’t call my brother-in-law’s siblings my in-laws but I don’t know either of my brothers-in-laws siblings very well
I got into an argument with some coworkers for calling my biological brother’s (then) ex-wife’s brother my brother-in-law.
So I agree with you, but I guess other people are a bit bigger on semantics than we are.
Your brother’s ex-wife is your ex-sister-in-law. Are there people who don’t call their siblings spouse their in-laws?
I called her my sister-in-law at the time. It was when I called her brother my brother-in-law that some people kinda took offense.
It was weird.
