Going N/C wish me perseverance/strength

[Queen_of_Swords]

LOL, PEI my motivation for saying no: anger, resentment, and under that very hurt feelings and stubborness. Hey I am human, fancy that.

My in-laws are passive aggressive people and my melange of feeling is directed at them mainly, as well as a little bit at STBX. I have not spoken to MIL since my STBX left, and no one from his family has even attempted to contact me.
No birthday cards for the kids, no phone calls...it's like we don't really exist and I was never connected to their family.

All those nasty feeling rising up in me is why the brakes got slammed on, and why I took a breath and said I'll think about it.


I will ask my children if they wish to go, they're old enough to make that decision, and I'll go from there.
