I hear what everyone is saying. I am being patient and working on things I need to do to help me and my D2. I'm still home, papers have not been served. We are very civil to each other and are in counseling. I found this place and now feel I have a support group who have been through these types of problems. I am determined not to be the person who gives up on this M. The MC was great last night and I believe that she will show my W how her mother is damaging our marriage. The MC told my W last night, "we have not even begun to look at the issues with you and your mother". I have told myself to let my MIL actions slide unless they are used against my D. I know my W will step in if that happens because she has in the past. My W loves my D and being a child of divorce herself she has said over and over that she will not put D in the middle. I know my W has to fix the things with her M..I can't fix their issues only my W can.
By the way- one thing I have noticed all these sitches are very similar..pride and stubbornness got in my way early in the marriage..I've been letting that go since December.
