September 2012 Weddings

Silence has been broken

Well today is FI first day off from his new job and him and FFIL had a talk for the first time since the major blow out over a week and  half ago about us moving. FFIL finally admitted that he was just scared, and IMO co-dependent, that his son was really moving on with his life and he wasn't such a big part of it anymore. FI has always done a lot for his dad since his mother passed all those years ago and FFIL never thought he would see the day his son would be getting married. I am glad they both sat down and finally talked instead of FFIL screaming at him like he lost his freaking mind. Does this convo they had change the relationship between me and FFIL, only time will tell about that one. FI knows I am not looking for this man to do a complete 180 turn around about me. I just want him to FINALLY see that I do have his son's best interest at heart and so does my family. At least this lifted a stress off both our shoulders and we can finally rest to know that his father will not act ugly the day of the wedding. Now if he shows up is another story.

Re: Silence has been broken

  • Glad to hear he came around a little and rationally explained what all his tantrums were really about.  Healing can take a long time so be patient with it.  And for now just focus on having a wonderful wedding and not what FFIL will do next! 
  • Thanks Volleygurl0306! Yes I am so happy that the wedding is right around the corner that I can finally BREATHE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
