I was at my bf's place last weekend when his brother's wife came by to drop off a few things. My bf's brother & wife have been having marital problems lately, and I don't know all the details of it, just that my bf felt awkward being caught in the middle.
When she came by this weekend she seemed exhausted. I offered her to come in and said, how are you doing, you look tired? She came inside and didn't really respond to me and started talking to my bf and I could tell she was about to cry.
She started talking about her husband (my bf's brother) saying some pretty personal things about their fights. I asked if she'd want me to leave the room, but she ignored me and continued, so I stayed. I felt awkward but figured if she wanted me to leave she would have said so and so as she started crying I approached her and started rubbing her back to comfort her.
