    That's not just the high road, Dave, that's extraterrestrial. Her timing---too late for anyone to undo her meddling---denies her innocence. Let us keep Squeaky and her husband (and her sister and her betrothed) in our prayers.

    I don't advocate you follow my advice but were I in your shoes Squeaky, I would not attend the wedding. In fact, there is not a hammer big enough to drive the wedge that I would have already put in place.

    I would also treat your move to New Zealand as an opportunity to permanently close the door. I wouldn't even give the woman my new address. No letters, no phonecalls, no emails, no christamas cards, nothing.

    As you may notice I am not a very forgiving person so please don't do what I would do.

    Possibly, and only Squeaky is close enough to really know, but I have known people like that in my life who have absolutely NO clue that what they're doing is wrong. And the difficult part is that they mean well and think they are helping.
