Don't you ever make the fake crunchy noise, like the phone line is bad? Or say that you are trying to help a friend right now and can't talk because this person REALLY needs to know how attractive they are on a scale of 1 to 10? I just emailed someone at the exact same time they were emailing me, so that means I might be pregnant, and this is no time for her to be so damn selfish!!!

As mother of 3 kids over 30, it often happens that one tells me so mething and says, don't tell Dad, he will ..... or 'just now it's a proven lie and he'll freak...' The moral of the story is this: if someone do not want something they said, repeated, respect their wish. On the other hand if it is something within a family that is open and honest, one can discuss it openly. It all depens on what the person says, feel about the subject or whether it can hurt someone - we all comment about someone or something from time to time. In your case it is a question of trusting/not trusting a parent, then your wish should be considered - not discussed it with the one you don't trust!.

A relationship is a partnership. Compromises must be allowable or there is no basis.

So..tell her you are willing to move closer, but only if you are going to bury them. Even offer to take care of 'the arrangements' if necessary. I am sure someone here knows someone who knows someone...

Mention how that might ruin the marriage, or result in some missing parents soon after the move.

Go ahead and move. Then change the locks, paint all your windows pink, and plant a few Triffids in the neighbourhood.
