So we already have 1 rental property (her old condo) and I think in the current mortgage marketing getting a THIRD mortgage while we lease two homes in almost impossible. The best that I can tell her is that I am pretty sure that is not the house we are going to die in, so we won't be there forever. For the short term, next few years or so, there may me no real way out.

Regarding our friend, the best that I can do is hope that time will heal this wound if given a chance. But I must really dedicate to putting her first.

Regarding FIL - w suggested I send him a letter. Not sure how I feel about that considering how he had no faith/belief in the fact that the letter I wrote w was genuine....and that it was "all about me". Again, this is something she will have to handle.....as I will have to handle with my parents as well (though I started the process with them awhile ago and they HAVE made progress).

These ARE good problems to have. But is she really wants to go down the IVF path again, we can't really do it from two different homes. Well we COULD, but I would need a more solid commitment from her to the relationship.
