I know very tricky, which is why I need outside perspective. SIL has been in communication and supportive, but at the end of the day, that's her brother. I know this. MIL's friends have been extremely supportive and so angry at H, but since I spoke with them over 3 weeks ago, I've heard nothing. SIl reached out to S and B, both ignored her text for about 3 weeks, until S texted this week and SIL didn't respond. Tricky, is an understatement.
Sotto,
To ask what I'd like to get from it... great question. I'd most definitely like closure. I'd like to thank them for opening their arms to me & S, for being surrogate mothers to H and allowing us to be a part of the family. If I'm being honest, I'd be really careful not to disparage H, but I'd like to let them know I'm standing (for now), that I was always open to repairing the R & this is not my choice. Should that be an option for H, to encourage him. At the very least, encourage H to get help.
Own,
Definitely understand blood is thicker than water. I would not expect they take my "side". I'd just like them to understand what my side is and where I stand. Know this isn't my choice and not something I'd ever ask for. But if this is counterproductive to me moving forward, then I get it.
Thank you for both of your perspectives. An outside view is always necessary and needed.
