"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."
Liar...
"The MC was great last night and I believe that she will show my W how her mother is damaging our marriage."
Your MIL is not ruining your marriage. You are. You told me you were.
Where is this guy...
"I have told myself to let my MIL actions slide unless they are used against my D."
What if your wife is waiting on you "fixing" your "Guilt Trip"?
"I know my W will step in if that happens because she has in the past."
Why? Ask yourself why she would do this? Don't tell me it's because she loves D more.
"being a child of divorce herself she has said over and over that she will not put D in the middle"
What is she telling you? You will find I have a habit of answering my own questions.
She is telling you WTF up. She needs you to stand up. Brush yourself off. And Lead.
Dude.. You have been "here" before. I am not going to cut you any slack. You are telling me "she's the one"! Don't do the same thing all over again. Prove "Brandon Kirk" and his stats wrong.
Yes.. All this stuff is like Mad Libs. All you gotta do is change the "blanks".
You have a fresh page.
What are yours going to say?
Lead on.
Now as a side note I am going to fix some of the "Drama" in your post. You really did not need to see that.
I am here to support you. I will call you out when I see it.
Don't stop posting. You will learn alot.
Don't take offense to what I have to say.
I have been called "brutal" or "as*hole". I am ok with that.
If you ever deem what I say to have no merit. Please post it. I will walk away with my shoes "unscuffed".
Do work.
Relax Eat Think Act normal React.. Smartly. Do something different. Emulate. Do Work.
