So, been bragging about my perfect Christmas, first one in several years...not to be.

Every Christmas Eve, my 2 SIL's and their families gather at the ones house. Each year.

SS is always a no show. He wants nothing to do with DH's family, only BM's family means anything.

This year, even knowing the bad blood between us, DH invites SS and DOES NOT TELL ME.

And no shit, SS and his wife walk through the door....

I look DH right in the eye and ask, why did you not tell me he was coming?

Just got bombed with "triangulation"....

This is the type of triangulation involved in the pathology traditionally called “parental alienation”.
