I have been with FH for over 10 years, and I don't call his paretns anything, I jsut talk to them, no name, nothing.

When I refer to them to each other I alwyas say FH's mom or dad.

They have never asked me to call them by their first names, and I won't call them mom and dad, I already have a set, and I think Mr & Mrs is a bit ridicoulous,m I have know them for ten years and am marrying their son.

I feel that they should have told me to call them by their first name, like my parents told my FH. But he calls my paretns nothing wither, and we live with them.

Well, since we aren't married yet, I call them by their first names, but I think it will still be that way after the wedding, their other DIL calls them by their first names.

FH calls my parents 'MR &MRS. Lastname' LOL but sometimes he tries to call them by their first names, like once he was stumbling and called my Dad 'Mr. Rich' My Dad's first name is Rich.....they never clarified it to him, so I know he can't figure out what to call them!
