[QUOTE="mugsy, post: 2786478, member: 18914"] Saddlebum, Recognizing your own motivations is half the battle. I'd say if you can't find a good reason to forgive them of your own (for inner peace, Love of God, whatever) then do it for your wife's sake. Having been on the receiving end of what I felt was unjustified bad blood for many years I will personally attest that no one suffered more than my (now late) wife who was caught between the husband she loved and the parents she loved. It took me many years to move past that and it was all time wasted that I wish I could recover now, but that opportunity is gone forever. Please talk to a priest or minister, counselor or trusted close friend and find a way to at least learn to tolerate their visits - you don't owe them any more favors and don't have to pretend you are suddenly best pals but nothing good comes from holding grudges like this and you might possibly even cause great hurt to the wife that you do love. Good luck and God Bless. [/QUOTE]
