[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Thanks again, all. DH suggested to his parents that we get together before or after Thanksgiving and said we’d made plans. [b]We’re bracing for the guilt trip [/b]but also prepared to hold strong. Appreciate the empathy and encouragement and great ideas with how to manage. [/quote] As someone who has been through this...just don't engage. Truly. Don't respond to any texts or emails that are trying to guilt you. If it comes up on the phone or in person, a one line answer is all you need. If they bring it up again excuse yourself and say you're done with the conversation. People like that are like sharks - if there isn't any blood in the water, they will move on.[/quote]
