We arent paying for your divorce

[Guest]

Early last month I posted about my Mil dragging my family into the middle of her and Fil's divorce. Shortly after that that post dh sat his mother down and told her in no uncertain terms that the next tume she saud anything inappropriate about Fil to any of us that we would no longer be speakung ti her until the divorce was final and if she did it after that we wouldnt be speaking to her at all... Well she decided not to sprak to us starting then. TBH none of us was disappointed in her decision and have been enjoying the silence..Until today......Mil called Dh at work because apparently she has ran out of money to pay for her attorney. She asked him to continue to pay for her attorney. ..Needless to say that was a big f**k no and Dh told her not to ever contact us again

I don’t understand I guess. It’s so hard to go through a divorce. It’s so painful. I understand asking not to be in the middle of it but I think compassion is in order.

[Uh huh]

Of course she did...

It's not always painful to go through a divorce, and when it is painful, it's not always equally painful.

Can't say I blame you. The only divorce I'd pay for is my own.

Yay! Another my IL's are so evil post.

She had compassuon until she threw it away. She had been warned many,many tumes about bad mouthing Fil in front of us and putting us in the middle.We explained to her many times that she was being ridiculous with the alienattion tactics and told her the consequences if she continued to do ot. She didn't listen

I would never expect family to fund my legal battles (unless it is offered, and then I'd set up a repayment plan with them). MIL had a lot of nerve guilt tripping your dh like that, especially after trash-talking his father. I don't blame you two for stopping contact.
