I don't believe the boundaries were ever put in place, even well before this took place. You know, we are to forsake all others, that includes leaving our mother and father and cleave unto our spouses. That being said, it's too late to close the barn door after the horse has escaped. However, boundaries are still called for in how this situation is dealt with. Of course, your family is feeling hurt for you, and justifiable anger towards your W. However, sometimes family members can be like the little foxes that spoil the grapes. They can come between the spousal R, and that is not good. That is why we should all watch what we say,and who we choose to tell our marital problems to. vc
