Happy Saturday ladies.

Hope this post finds you all well.

Ok so we have all mentioned on occasion our future in-laws, be it FMIL, FFIL, FBIL or FSIL.

What type of relationship do you have with your future in-laws and how about FH with your parents and siblings?

Luckily for us this has been easy. FH and I have known eachother several years and his family has always made me feel like a part of the family from the beginning. FH's parents are much older than my mom but I have a great relationship with them but wish they lived here in NY and not Florida as I do not get to see them as much as I would like. I also get along very well with FH's brothers and his one brother's wife.

With my family, they have always liked FH from day 1. I wish my dad was alive to meet FH- I know he would have loved him

Sometimes my mom is nicer to FH than me okay maybe it just seems that way

I think it's great we all get along and hope the wonderful relationships continue into the future

Happy Saturday and enjoy the weekend!!!!

Ok I like this one ...

As for my relationship with his family ....

His parents are divorced and I get along with everyone. His mothing loves me because I am basically the only relationship she has with her son. They don't get along so I keep the tie there.

His father is a great man and I love him we just don't have tons to talk about ... but when we get started its great.

His parents new spouses both love me and I love them too.

His sisters ... He has two. I am closer to the younger one Ashley but I love Erica too, we just have less in common. But Ashley to me is my real sister. I would do anything for her in a second.

As for FH and my family ... Lets just put it this way, I think he proposed to me to be closer to them LOL He loves them all so much and they love him too!!!

I think all the FFIL like both of us. Sometimes I DO think that Fh's parents are more giving to me and nicer to me than my parents are to FH.

The only thing that drives me crazy and will continue to do so in the future is that all the parents want to be sooo involved in everything we do - giving unsolicited advice and thinking they can tell us what to do, etc. It's very annoying, I know my parents and like that and I recently am noticing that FMIL is very much like that too. FFIL is pretty relaxed.

everything is wonderful in IL land. in fact, FH came home on thursday to tell me that FMIL wants to help me with my dress bc the MOB usually does it and she knows my mom doesn't have the money. i'm even a little embarrassed by the offer. FMIL is just swell and FH gets along w/ my mom better than i do.

i feel that i have a good relationship with my future in-laws. they are so sweet. my FH is an only child so they were so happy to have another person in the mix. they are family oriented. we have family meals there at least twice a week which i love!

my FH gets along well with my family. he is a yankee fan which is perfect for my family who are all yankee fans. he fits right in.

When I first met my FH his sister was very young (15 yrs old) and she was a wise @ss little teenager. So we didn't really get a long the first 3 years of us going out. She calmed down a lot now and we are good friends. We talk all the time now and she's so excited to be in the BP. The FH's mother passed away before I met the FH so I never got to meet her. His dad remarried and I got a long well with his step mother. Although now, they are going through a divorce and she has become a nasty crazy lunatic
I get along well with the FBIL. He lives up in Albany so we don't see each other a lot but we chat every now and then on e-mail. I get along really well with the FH's dad. He is staying with us now because his step mother served him with divorce papers. My FFIL is so nice and really excited about the wedding. My parents and family love the FH. So overall, we all get along very well

I have a good relationship with FH's family.

His mom is a sweetheart, she's the nicest lady in the world, I'm lucky to have her as my FMIL, we get along great.

Since FH is the baby of the family his brother and sisters are much older so we don't have a relationship where we hang out and go out together but his brother is great with me, his sister in law is a sweetheart too, we get along.

His sisters are cute, they're fun and try to act younger than they are, we have a good relationship as well. I'm thankful for that!!

His nieces and nephews are adorable, I've watched them grow up, I consider them my nieces and nephews as well.

As far as FH with my family, he practically lives here, he is always watching sports with my brothers, he gets along great with them.

My parents consider him one of their own already, so they get along great as well.....

we are really lucky that our families even like each other, that is a big plus for us!!!

I'm close with his mom, his dad likes me and vise versa but, he keeps to himslef. His siter and I get along fine.
FH gets along with my whole family but, he is not a family guy, his family isnt close with either side, so with that said.... He goes to family things to please but, thank god he likes them.

I get along with FFIL and his wife very well. We dont see them that often but when we do it's always a good time. FBIL is another story, let's not go there. I've never met FMIL - she lives in Florida and fh doesnt really talk to her.

As for my family, fh has been a part of it long before we got engaged. We're at my house at least once a week and everyone absolutely loves him.

I really like FH's family. we get along well but I wish we were closer. that's partially my fault because when I started dating FH I was like a deer in headlights around his family because I come from a very small family and his is huge! it really took me a while to get used to the whole scene so I probably wasn't as welcoming of a new family as I should have been but now i'm looking forward to forging closer relationships with everyone and welcoming a bunch of new people into my life!

FH gets along with my parents. my mother loves him and thinks he's perfect for me! i don't have any siblings.
