This post reminds me of something I have been thinking for some time...Reunion is so hard. People often have no idea how to act, what to say/not say, what is too much, too fast, not enough, etc. There is no guide book to reunion. Rarely does anyone have life experience to guage what is write/wrong, normal/unnormal. Any number of your friends and family members can give insightful suggestions and tell you the steps to take in planning for a wedding. But who in our lives can we ask, "how to have a reunion". Most likely, no one. There isn't even a decent book to get ideas from.
My point is, maybe his bmom came on to strong, maybe she wants too much of his time. Of course you have to set boundaries. However, I think you have to say it in the gentlest way possible. Come to it with the mindset that she just didn't know.
