~*~*QOTD Thurs 9/22*~*~

I am curious to know:

How are your relationships with your future in-laws (FMIL, FFIL, FSIL, etc)? Are they very different from your family?is that good or bad? How is FH's relationship with your family?

My relationship with my in laws is very confusing to me- at times I think they love me & then other times I don't know how they feel about me. I think they are all great people but one of FH's sisters made it very known last year that she doesn't like me so I think that has caused alot of issues/tension that doesn't need to be there. FH family is very different then mine-my family is the type that doesn't censor anything we tell it how it is. I think FH family likes to keep alot of things to themselves & are not always very open. My family loves FH especially my mom- she picks his side over mine most of the time lol.

My FH is super comfortable with my family and they adore him. My mom likes him so much that when we got engaged, she got on the phone with him and asked, 'Are you SURE???' Lol, thanks Mom! It was so funny.

I really like his family as well, but I am a bit more reserved around them, I guess because I know I want to have a good relationship with them and I get nervous. But I hope to be closer to them as time goes on.

My family likes FH and they get along really well. My family is awesome and so accepting of people so it makes it easy.
I get along well with FH's parents, especially his mom. I do get along with his sister's, however sometimes I question if they really like me or not. Overall very happy that we get on well with eachother's families.

My family is challenging lately. Both FH and I are not thrilled with their behavior and comments.

On the other hand, FH's family is wonderful. His mother clearly wears the 'pants' in the family but we get along really well. She doesnt have a daughter so I think she is enjoying having me around.

FIL's =

My Family =

I think that best explains it lol

I get a long with FH family. the other night i went to his house to see his moms choices for the dress for the wedding then went to dinner with his mom and sister

i am still unsure how it will be with him and my parents at times it seems good with them talking and others it is more tense

My family loves my FH. They treat him so nicely, like he's already part of our family.

He doesn't really have great relationships with his parents. They both moved away a long time ago, so his relationship is mostly distant. He talks to them often, anyway. I don't really have relationships with either of them, it's tough for me since I don't really agree with their parenting styles (or lack of) so I don't really want to be close with them. They're nice enough and mean well. I'm very close with his sisters, they're amazing and we have a great relationship. I'm glad they're in his life.

I don't like FFIL and he knows it. Well actually no one really likes him and he knows that too. I am not fond of his brother and am just not that close to his family. They are difficult, have problems, and his mother wants to us to buy a house to live together. His parents are from different countries and do things so differently and not in a good healthy way. Definitely hard to get used to.

My real family sucks balls and I try to stay away from them. FH gets along with everyone except my mother and my dad isn't part of my life.

Now my fake family FH adores and they adore him as well.

i LOVE my in-laws, but there are times i feel like <--this lol
and i love how my FH gets along so well with everyone in my family, he even goes to PA to spend the weekend with my parents w/o me sometimes lol

on his side its just his parents and brother and sister, i really have not met anyone else on his side, so it is totally different from my family we are all so close with eachother and it was a bit of a shock for him. he would hear us talking about my cousin's or someone and just say 'why do you get yourself involved' or 'why do you care so much' but he's never really had that close bond with his family so he just didnt understand. He does now tho lol i realized it when we were talking about my younger cousin being picked on at her new h.s. (all girls) and he butt in saying 'i'll go pick her up at school in the mustang with the top down and have all those girls totally jealous of her! then no one will talk $hit to her' lol

FMIL & FFIL love me and I adore them. One FBIL loves me and we get a long so well, the onther one, we dont hate each other but dont love each other. I think it's more because he lives cross country and we haven't had a chance to bond. FMIL, FFIL, and 1 FBIL live near Buffalo so we dont see them too often but I love going to visit them and love when they come here.

FH gets along great with my family. My brother calls the house not for me but for FH. And he golfs with my dad every weekend. Mom is a tough cookie but really likes him. I think she loves him hehehehe. She can be overbearing so i try to manage that so they do get fustrated with each other but it's bound to happen. That's when dad gets to step in

Unfortunately my FMIL and FFIL are not alive. I have a great relationship with my FBILs and FSILs. Honestly I think of them like my actual brothers and sisters.

FH has a great relationship with my parents and my sister.

Honestly, our two families really have blended together really well and I am so fortunate.

How are your relationships with your future in-laws (FMIL, FFIL, FSIL, etc)? Are they very different from your family?is that good or bad? How is FH's relationship with your family?

I absolutely love my FIL's! His parents are a lot like my Dad... laid back, quiet, simple & the complete opposite of my mom. It's honestly refreshing.

FH gets along with my parents. Probably my Dad more than my mom though (although my mom is nice to him). My father and him play on the same softball team together. My mom just doesn't like anyone (including me at times lol) so it's her loss.

My only reply to this is ... only because I need to to keep from ....

It has gotten better, but had rocky times (for no apparent reason as far as I can tell)... may the future bring more improvements.

this!

My family loves my FH.

On the other hand, his family is VERY different from mine. My future SIL loves to start drama, gossup, and they are all just not as loving as my family.....but I LOVE his grandma and one of his aunts lol :)
