When family members enable someone's unrequited longing

My brother has been pining after his ex-wife for two years since their divorce and our whole family feels like we have to choose between supporting his healing and telling him the truth about how painful it is to watch. We're all enabling his fantasy that she might come back.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A family is discovering that sometimes collective kindness becomes collective delusion, and no one knows how to love truly.
