Missed the chance
Man I (29M) have missed the chance with my (55F) MIL. I could clearly tell she likes me and probably had the chance early in our relationship, but the window was slowly closing as her and her daughter’s relationship grew tighter and tighter, and now it’s closed. Her father, my wife’s grandfather passed away recently (a couple of months ago now) and since my wife’s father wasn’t around her grandfather was her father figure. His passing definitely trauma bonded them. I’ve always felt she has a slight desire of willing to risk it all, but no window of opportunity as she’s never alone, but since his passing i haven’t seen or felt any inkling of her wanting to do anything with me like I used to. Her and her daughter are so inseparable now they are more like sisters than mother and daughter. I definitely missed my chance. I’ve broken the barriers just enough that I can casually flirt and give slightly longer hugs but that’s how far it’s going to go now. If I push anything further it’s gonna have some repercussions I feel it so my fantasies will just remain fantasies. That’s fine tho, my wife is such an innocent sweetheart I wouldn’t want to do that to her anyway
