Hi PM. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. I'm sorry I've not been on for a while. Had a hectic holiday with us all being thoroughly spoiled rotten. Wee Man was a bit ill over Christmas but has sunce picked up to his normal cheeky self.
It sounds as though you've been doing great with your DBing over the holidays too. I think I know I little about what you're going through with your MIL because my IL's are the same. They love me to bits (so they say) and are more like friends to me. To be honest, with my W being so young, there's not a huge difference in age gap between me and her and me and them (10 years and 13 years respecitvely). They're finding it incredibly hard to see what we're going through. They are torn between wanting their precious daughter to be happy but concerned that she's throwing away a perfectly good marriage. They're also torn that if she does decide to leave whether or not they can in all good conscience support her. They want her to discover that the grass isn't always greener but they also would never see her suffer unneccesseraly. I love my IL's so much as well as they're also like an adoptive family to me since I'm not even as close to my own family.
Anyhoo, like I said, well done on your DBing over the holidays. It's 100% better than my own. I won't haijack your thread by going in to it here but suffice to say I may have just gone back to square 1. I've started a new thread about it in the Newcomers section. It's called 'I might have blown it' or something along those lines. I'd love your input as ever.
