[quote=Anonymous]Small smile and say hello if he approaches you. If he says he is sorry for your loss, say thank you, I appreciate that. Other than that, really try to avoid him. When you see him coming start heading the other direction. Stay engaged in conversation with others. Fake a phone call if you have to. Get out of the room if you can. If he really tries to start in, just say, “Bill, I am really sad and stressed and I don’t think I can have a productive conversation about this right now.” And if he persists, walk over to your sister (or SIL? Not sure how this relation fits in) and tell her that you are sad and stressed and you can’t handle her husband approaching you with negativity right now, and ask her to please keep him away from you.[/quote]
