I only met them once, but we decided to keep them and me far apart until it was time for a wedding. We agreed that it was normal and healthy for her to see her parents and sister (who agreed with the parents), and that I would be as supportive as possible when she got back. The relationship ended for other reasons, but that part worked out ok. Best of luck in yours - it sounds like a very difficult situation for you.

Bowhunt- thank you for sharing this with me.
It is unfortunate with the misunderstanding with DX's...
I wish there was more education out there for people and not such a stigma. People try their best- and to be honest- No one on earth is completely sane in my opinion.
I agree that my S/O should see his parents- I have dropped my parents and a few of my siblings-- I don't think anyone should be in that boat unless it is for one's self good-- Meaning not to use another as an excuse to not see their family as well as it is wrong in my opinion to make one distant to their family due to personal issues.
I may have crossed wires, I may not be of the norm, but I do understand that as you say too
