[QUOTE="Snow White, post: 738324, member: 355"] KSM - sorry to hear you had to come back to all of this (or maybe even knew about it while you were away). This is not the way you hoped to celebrate DGD's 18th birthday. You've been on the emotional roller-coaster for many years. It is really good that you have been able to set firm boundaries. I am really happy that you were able to get away with your husband on a dream vacation. We did ours last year and I stressed about the "what ifs" before we left. We put as much in place as we could (protect the property, etc.) in case our daughter tried to break in but at the end of the day, we were really tired of being a hostage in our own house - staying home because of...."what ifs". We had a wonderful trip (with only 1 very nasty email that I quickly deleted). I look back at the photos one year later and think, "When can we go again?" Your photos can keep your dreams alive. I agree with everyone - the XBF is pure evil but has some kind of hold over DGD. What woman wants someone else's trash? I don't get it. Sounds like there is a true triangle there: XBF/XBF wife/DGD. I'm sure that neither the XBF or his wife are going to help DGD. Too bad she doesn't see it. Keep the wall up - don't backslide. Your boundaries are totally reasonable. Hugs to you! [/QUOTE]
