Thanks man. I'm not giving in. I'll give her a call in a week or two just to say hello and talk small talk. The thing with the BF is that if he really was intending to get better and become part of the family, I would think he would remove himself from the situation for a few days so our family could be together. At least that is whay I'd do if I screwed a situation up and wanted back in. Anyhow, I've spoken to my brother, and while he and I have differing views on "second chances" about all this, he respects my decision and supports it. I'm gonna enjoy my family and a few days off, and I don't even have to travel now! Your advice has been invaluable Chiefshrink. I hope you don't mind that I've paraphrased you several times in discussing this with my wife and she is amazed how spot on you are about my mother, her actions, her manipulations, etc. Thanks again man. Have a great Thanksgiving. I know I will.
