So, of course, the extended family members assume maybe I'm into drugs or I'm poisoning him or some other type of abuse.

You can see what this would do for my reputation in this extended family.

I feel like I am in a really bad soap opera.

This isn't real life.

This has to be certifiably insane, right?

What would you all do in this situation?

Pick of the costume.

It's nothing.

This is, you know...

I feel like we've brought up a lot of like big Reddit convos and this is another one of like another Reddit thing is like no contact.

It's like, oh, cut them out of your life.

But here's the reality is like a lot of people's parents, it's like they're no contact for a damn good reason.

It's like because they're dangerous to him.

Like they are controlling, they're manipulative and they are just...

Yeah, like, what do you do about this?

Like, this is so extreme.

I think, I mean, because he was saying, so where I'm a little frustrated at OP, like, a little frustrated, is that she talks about, she's like, he's very distant from his parents.

So planning up to the wedding, I encouraged him to like get his parents back into his life because her parents are passed away.
