writes: My Sister In Law is in a terrible relationship with a guy who has been in prison twice, has a history of cheating, stealing, and lying. She is almost obsessed with him and now they are talking about getting married in less than 3 weeks. We have all tried talking to her but she has been blinded by him and doesn't see reality in our opinion. She keeps saying she is the happiest she has ever been but we are afraid she will be hurt again. Any advice would be greatly appreciated to help her see the truth about this guy.

I guess we just have to let her go down this destructive path and be there when she falls again. This isn't the first time.

Have any of you directly said this to her or have you all been extra nice and told her you are worried about her.
At some point you have to say, that you in NO way approve of this relationship and will not be supporting it or attending the wedding because you think it's a big mistake.
Make it clear that you will always be there for her if she needs you, but that he is going to have to work a lot harder to get your approval yet.
Good Luck!! xx
