[quote=Anonymous]OP, I don't find your posts confusing, but that may be due to the familiarity of the situation you're describing. I'm in your DH's position. Did a lot for my family. When I made it clear that I wouldn't continue if abusive behavior continued, that was, of course, the signal for abusive behavior to escalate. Their manipulative communications continue, but I've gotten to a place that poster at 6:22 describes: I've let go and (mostly) don't care. Your husband has to let go. And you do, too. His family's not going to change. What helped me was - well, therapy - but also recognizing how much what I wanted them to be was clouding my judgment. -Not just regarding family, but generally. Holding on to what I wanted family to be also meant holding on to their dysfunctional world views that had shaped my childhood. It's hard to let go, but you and your husband will be so much happier eventually, and you'll see things differently, once you do.[/quote]
