Bond, SIAS, WHG, LUV - thank you all for your posts today.
If you truly are worried what they will think about you, then I would take that to an IC appointment for discussion. At this point they really shouldn't matter all that much.
Boy, talk about detaching! Good advice on talking to the IC on this matter.
I really am not looking for validation or trying to pursue via the in-laws. I haven't been doing that with her SIL/BIL so why would I do that with her parents? They have been an important part of MY family for over 20 years. I love them like they are my parents.
I feel like I owe them an explanation. Surely they must be wondering what is up with me! Their daughter is in emotional hell at the moment and they must be hurting as well. It just feels like I need to talk to them.
I guess I'll hang tight for the time being and see what develops.
