[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m not trying to be overbearing, but now there’s the elephant in the room of knowing that they had she horrific experiences for 17 years and she pretends that it was this idyll except a couple people who were jealous that her mom was a nurse and their mom was on welfare or worked in a grocery store. Knowing that isn’t at all what her childhood is really like, [b]we’re all questioning her ability to be honest [/b]about things that bother her. Is this her regular coping mechanism or a one-off? She’s told Stepson so many stories about the moves and being a new kid, and never mentioned that they moved for their safety! That is huge. [/quote]

So you're calling her a liar.   [/quote]

I don’t think she’s a liar. I think she might be the type of person who bottles things up and that’s bad for her and everyone else.[/quote]
Did your stepson explicitly ask you (not just his father) for advice on how to handle these differing narratives from his fiancé and her mom and friend? If the answer is no, then MYOB. If the answer is yes, then you can give input, but the decision on how to proceed is his alone. If he is ready for marriage, he can navigate this on his own.[/quote]

He did. He also asked his mom. We’re all at a loss.[/quote]
