Re: Those who need posts...
Fh and I met a few years back when we were still in college. My friend Mike was working at Kohls and said that there was a guy (He knew me since we were little and would NEVER set me up with someone) that was perfect for me. I was hesitant and didnt want to be set up but knew there had to be something special about him if Mike was considering setting us up...
To make a long story short, I went to visit Mike one night with my mom and got a phone call later on saying that Vinnie had seen me and wanted my number. I said no... but later that night we went to pick up his sister who also worked there... and Vinnie (i didnt know who he was) came to the car. He had the cutest little smile and I turned to Mike and said 'Who is that? I want his number!' little did I know it was fh! Now our tradition is every year we go and take a picture infront of kohls for luck!
I love his parents.. Theyre older so theyre set in their ways...
The worst advice I got so far... was not to get married. To live together and 'get what you can' and when you get sick of eachotehr... leave. Nice aye?

So far the two I met were nice

It took him awhile but now he is more comfortable and is able to joke around with everyone
What is the worst advice you were given so far about marriage?! 'Cant you move your wedding up?? 09 seems so far away'

We met in this little area of Washington DC called Adams Morgan, this spot filled with bars and clubs. I was with my girls and he was with his friends, and he wanted my number, I said no and told him if you are interested then here is my email. He actually emailed me, telling me in his letter, Oh I know i'm the one you can take home to meet your mother. I thought he was a jerk, and replied. The rest is history.
I love his family. He comes from a big extended family like me where his cousins are more like brothers and sisters. They are all great. Love his mom! She is a sweetie.
I loves my family too. Its hard cause they live in NY so he only gets to see them every once and a while. He wishes he could see them more, they are close, but I know he would like to be closer to them.
Worst advice would have to be from my aunt who says, don't make more money than your husband, because than you will argue.

What do you think of his family? I cant stand his mother she is crazy, and I have never met his dad because he lives in Greece. I like his sister.
What does he think of yours? Mine are very good to him and he is close with my BIL. He likes mine a lot I think.
What is the worst advice you were given so far about marriage? Nothing really.

Re: Those who need posts...
We met at work. I was a temp for his co-worker who was going out on maternity leave. We basically sat across from each other. lol
His family is so much fun, and they get along so well, which is a lot different from my family (must be our Italian temper lol.)
He probably thinks they're crazy lol
the worst was probably 'don't get married' but i'm pretty sure they were joking.

Re: Those who need posts...
Fh and I met in college at U of Delaware. We lived across the hall from each other
I like his family a lot. His dad is awesome, so laid back about things, but he and his family are crazy Puerto Ricans, its great! His mom is really nice, but she's a little more annoying
Fh likes my family and I have to give him a lot of credit for dealing with my big *** crazy family. They are a lot to handle and VERY crazy...sometimes not in a good way.
No one has really given me any advice yet.

How did you and fh meet? I went on thgis jewish club florida trip 3 yrs ago. There i met this girl, WE hung out during the trip, i havent heard from her again until she invited me 2 her 25th birthday party a year later. The party was taken place at her friend''s house. I didnt want to go because i just broke up with my bf of 2 years and was sulking. My best friend however who was also invited begged and begged until i agreed to go. The party was at my FH's house!!
What do you think of his family? I like them. They are really nice.

Re: Those who need posts...
FH & I met in high school we had two classes together in 10th grade and became friends, we started dating the summer before senior year.
I love his family like my own but sometimes they just drive me NUTS . lol they are good people at heart but sometimes I just cant deal.
He loves my family just the same but like his they can drive him a little crazy too. But things are easier with my family, my parents dont give us problems the ways his parents do.
I dont think we really got any bad advice, we've gotten some weird comments but most people seem to think we've got a pretty good hold on things.

Here are some questions we can answer:
How did you and fh meet? I moved to the Washington DC area and he was roomates with one of my best friends from college.
What do you think of his family? They are super nice, Southern (even though only from Maryland, they live on what used to be a farm), and completely different from my family. They are great but his mom makes these little very opionated comments (followed by 'not that it matters...') that constantly force me to bite my tongue.
What does he think of yours? IMHO, how could you not love them? My mom's side is crazy. My dad is a little hard to get a long with or become chummy with so I am sure that is hard.
What is the worst advice you were given so far about marriage?! Gosh, so many conflicting words of advice. I usually like the advice that I agree with :jump Hopefully this gets a chat started on a Sunday!![/QUOTE: ]

Re: Those who need posts...
I have said this before..but we met at Penn State...at a social event between my sorority and his fraternity. I was dating someone from high school for 4 years. One of his friends wanted to hang out with one of mine so he asked me to play beer pong with my FH.
I LOVE his family..they are crazy but so are mine. I call his mom Saint Mary Lou to her face because she is a saint. she is sooo kind and considerate. She starting growing the hydrangea I want..blushing bride..in her backyard for the weddding because she though it would be a nice touch to have homgrown flower for the church ceremony and I could't agree more. Sometimes his brother irks me.
He loves my family...obviously. They are loud, sarcastic, and make fun of everything/everyone but they treat him as one of our own. The first time he met my family he met EVERYONE on my mom's side....with her 3 sisters and 2 brothers and 15 cousins.
Advice: IF ONE MORE PERSON SAYS YOU WOULD REALLY LIKE THIS PLACE!...i can't take anymore...not one place recommended has been a place i liked.

Fh and I went to college together but we didn't actually know each other but our friends are mutual. We actually met on Myspace! Can u believe it? I met the love of my life on myspace
I LOVE his family. I really and truly lucked out! His mother is the best and his brother is awesome so is my FSIL. FH loves me family too. He and my mom went ring shopping together. He and my dad do a lot together - they are like best friends now. FH doesn't have a dad and my dad doesn't have a son so it worked out perfectly. Our families also get along great - I could not ask for more.
Worst advice was from his best friend - is wasn't really advice it was just him saying that marriage changes your relationship (for the worse) - I told FH that's BS - as long as the communication is strong which ours is we'll have no problems
