[quote=Anonymous]I had this exact thing happen to me but genders all reversed. Ex BIL twisted our words to support whatever point he was making with SIL. She was livid with us for months and stopped talking to us for some time. Took a couple years to get back to where we were, even though I didn’t think we did anything wrong but also we apologized multiple times regardless.

I went through that conversation so many times and I know we didn’t say what was implied. But we cut ties after that. I did think Ex BIL may have generally been in the right and perhaps that came through. Regardless, the relationship with SIL was more important to us and unless they had a good ex relationship (which they didn’t), we did not want to get in the middle of it. It was the right decision to cut ties. They had no children so we have no connection with him anymore.

They weren’t married that long, so they might change my response. But if they aren’t on good terms, I do think you will need to pick sides. Not because you’re being forced to but because this will happen again. [/quote]
