[quote=Anonymous]I have a GREAT relationship with my ex-ILs, two years after exH moved out. I felt as you do, OP and have made a point to always keep communication open. After the split I had one awkward, brief conversation of the type you propose. I said my plan going forward would be to treat them no differently than I had over the past 15 years. They are local and I occasionally send DCs to their place for dinner etc on "my days" because it's what DCs want at the time and it benefits DCs so much. A caveat - their son, my ex, hasn't remarried or begun to bring around any love interests. I can imagine that when he does, I'll need to be more "formal" about contacting them and not just calling them up on the spur of the moment no suggesting they come by and see the kids' lemonade stand that afternoon. What if 'she' is there when I call, having brunch with exH and his parents? And so on. [/quote]
