On Wednesday last week dh and I decided on a trial separation while we sift through what used to be our marriage and try to find something salvagable. Things have been going downhill for a very long time, and we dont want to say good bye for good, but we have hurt eachother deeply lately and have decided on some space.
Problem is my MIL. She is loud, opinionated and down right scary. She knows exactly what to say and do to hurt. We werent going to tell her at all unless we decided to make the separation more permanent,but my dh has just texted me to say that he told her this morning when he was dropping ds off at hers. I have to go and pick ds up in 2 hrs and I am terrified basically. What can I say to protect myself? I know its daft being so afraid of the reaction of another person, but she is something else..
