[quote=Anonymous]We have been in this exact situation, from the family side.   SIL and her husband were separated for a while after he cheated...he just disappeared from family events for a long while.   Now she is bringing him around again to holidays, etc.    We certainly don't condone anything he did and are still angry and disappointed about what he did to SIL (and kids), but if she wants him back, we'll defer to her judgement on that issue.   Have to say that things are definitely not as smooth as they were before--he is accepted for her sake, but he certainly isn't anyone's best friend.   But, everyone is very civilized about it and there have not been any scenes at any get-togethers.   People are civil, but not overly friendly.     That's probably the best you can hope for, in the short term.   I imagine that if you continue to behave yourself and support your DW, the chill will subside over time, as I imagine it will in our case.
If no one is being rude to your face, consider that a win and use your best manners around her family to continue to show that you are still a good guy.[/quote]
