Wedding Woes

You want to have your cake and eat it too...that's not how it works.

Dear Prudence,

I ghosted an in-law who has rubbed a lot of the family the wrong way, for a long time.
They mean well and are caring and smart, but abrasive and overbearing. I’d love to re-approach the relationship because I am not a mean person, I just will not associate with people who leave me unsettled and I do feel bad about the family fracture. I am grown and able to set boundaries and will do so moving forward, as needed. But I am at a loss for words on how best to reenter this person’s life, if they will have me. Any advice on how to unghost?

  • If you want a relationship you can reach out and apologize for going no no contact and clear the air. But you're going to have to cite specific times that the other person may have done things you felt were an issue so you can reference what boundaries you have.  People don't know that they're crossing a line if you don't point it out sometimes.
