I am actually having a lot less time than I thought. My D5 did not go to kindergarten today, so I took her grocery shopping this morning. Coming back I started preparing lunch (we are still doing it the German way with a bigger lunch and smaller, usually cold dinner). My S8 and our exchange student came home before lunch. After lunch, I called my W's sister again and finally found out a little more about what happened. After 10 minutes, my W apparently walked in and took over. I did have to talk to her, because there were a few things that I had received from the school regarding our S8, so I wanted to discuss that with her. Again no R talk at all, but even though her voice was friendly again, she did seem a little less patient today. These mood swings are kind of normal with her. I wonder what kind of roller coaster ride it would be for her, if she were in my shoes. Anyway, after that I went for a run, which was a little better than yesterday. Overall, not a bad day.
When I talked to my W's sister, I thought back to our crisis 11 years ago. I remembered that everybody in her family including her mom was on my side and was pressuring her not to walk away like that (they did not approve of the PA at all). Suddenly I also recalled that when she admitted to the EA this time (even though she said the OM was just a penpal) she said something like "I warn you not to turn my family against me again". What is the general advice here on the board? I remember reading that talking the OM's W is generally recommended and may help save the M. But what about your W's family? I know she has not told them yet.
