Hello and welcome to PC!

My husband’s family is also very conservative and view divorce as an unspeakable thing. My father in law once told me I must have bad DNA because there were divorces in my family! My in-laws are also nearly 100 years old and very provincial, with no relatives, so no one to have gotten divorced.

My nephew married a Chinese girl (we are American). It was a very cool blending of two cultures at their wedding. I thought both sides bring something good to each other.

My only suggestion is to explain to her parents that our American culture is much more liberal about divorce as a solution to being in an unhappy marriage. Say how you have learned from your bad choices prior and know how to be good to your spouse.
