[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Has anyone taken the time to ask MIL about her wishes?[/quote]

OP here.

Yes, she wants to move with my FIL to their rural property.

Both of my IL's want to move to their property. My SIL1 and BIL1 also want them to move so they can have their privacy that was agreed upon when they bought my IL's house.

The loosey goosey plan was that my IL's would come back "every now and then" maybe 1, 2 nights a month when my MIL had an appointment in the city. It's not solely my MIL's needs at play here, it's also that my FIL is having a hard time giving up his social life. He comes back in town to spend time with his adult friends too, go to the local tavern, etc. [/quote]

So, as you see, both in-laws do NOT want to move out there: your FIL doesn’t want to. He wants to have a vacation house but not actually live there. If he wanted to, he would. And he doesn’t give AF that you, SIL1, MIL, or anyone else thinks he should man up and follow through on his obligations. Not one single F. [/quote]

If I were SIL1, I would be racing to a divorce lawyer.  WTF[/quote]

Yup. She told me she's giving it a year before she leaves. - OP[/quote]
