My inlaws are awful. There is so much manipulation and guilt trips coming from them that I don't think duh knows which was is up anymore... I can update bg if needed but they're pretty classic boundary stompers.
I'm keeping this short on purpose because I'm limited on time.
My problem is my husband. He talks to them daily; multiple times a day and texts them all day. We don't ever get a break from them. He thinks this is normal and I think it's just there way of maintaining control. They don't see us as having our own family. I'm quite honestly sick of hearing about their every move and I could care less what they're doing. He wants to maintain this type of contact because he's happy with it. I get that and I'm trying my best not to let it bother me but it does.
Has anyone come out from the other side intact? I'm terrified of getting a unicorn therapist who sees family enmeshment as normal. Anyone want to share? I feel like the more I talk the further away he get from me and the closer he clings to them.
