I am sorry to hear that XH and XFIL continue to be donkeys. From my own personal experience with donkeys...Dont feed them any carrots and they will leave you alone.

Some time apart with FFG may be a blessing in disguise. It will give both of you time to think about how happy you really are with each other.

BTW... FFG must work out as his biceps look massive in the rafting pictures. I sure he would have no problem corraling donkeys.
