Latest Triangulation Attempt
«

So we invited my (u?)BPDSis to a family function. She e-mailed my W to say she would not be coming. She said she was not coming because I think she has mental problems.
Fortunately, W has seen the evidence over the years so she knows better than to get sucked into the drama.

Its helpful that you are both on the same page as far as communication so drama does not ensue - especially if BPDsis is calling your wife and not you. It would be helpful that you both have the same boundaries over contact.
