Re: FMIL - do you get along with her?

eh - she's ok. She's not a very warm woman, so I have issues with trying to get her to relax a little.

Re: FMIL - do you get along with her?

some moms just think nothing is good enough for their precious boys....it will be hard, but you will be the 'better person' to just let it go.

I have a very touch and go relationship with my FMIL. unfortunately, when she gets angry at something FH does, she takes her anger out of me- at one point, she barely spoke to me for over a year!

if you are up for it, just keep trying. hopefully she will turn around. Good luck!

Re: FMIL - do you get along with her?

Um we get along but we dont see each other that much so it makes it pretty easy ....she isnt one to be all up in our stuff doesnt ask anything about the Wedding plans or anything like that - We work days she works nights ....there of course have been things that I dont like cause lets face it she isnt my mother but I take it with a grain of salt ...

but I do get along with her ...But I love my FFIL ....

I know that its hard just take a deep breath and remember you will be his wife....and she will always be his mother .... it will change -

Re: FMIL - do you get along with her?

yes i get along with her but that could be because she has no clue about weddings here in this country. All she does is ask me about work and talk about the weather and the news.
i guess im lucky on this one. LOL

Re: FMIL - do you get along with her?

Well I get along with her but thats becuz she lives 4 hours away plus. She does try to get into our business a little too much and sometimes tries to change things with the wedding. To give you a perfect example she is like Marie Barone from everyone loves raymond. Thats her to the TEE!!!!!

Re: FMIL - do you get along with her?

Im very lucky as well. Love my FFIL & FMIL. But they've known me since I was a little kid so it's prob different than if I just came into my FH life and they didnt know anything about me.

My FMIL and my mother getting along...thats a different story. Its already beginning.

Of course you want to get along with her! Hopefully your FH will be able to bridge the gap a bit and make her realize that she needs to respect you as the women he chose to be his wife.

Me three! We're very lucky!!!

But if you don't get along with yours, they usually mean well, even when misguided, and it's usually better to confront the issue yourself, or through FH, in a diplomatic way. I've found many problems in my family arise out of a lot of misunderstanding - seems everyone's always assuming the worst even when people meant well, and were just trying to show you they love you. Good luck everyone

Re: FMIL - do you get along with her?

Yes. I'm lucky and glad to have someone as so nice as her as my FMIL.

Re: FMIL - do you get along with her?

SHe is a sweet lady and never gives me problems
BUT- the other day fh and i were having a 'tiff' and she kind of intruded...and gave me her 'advice' that I didnt like so much rather than saying MY SON is wrong and blah blah-
I have to admit though, it was A BIT and ONLY A BIT my fault she was involved to begin with, she kind of brought stuff up and I went with it! URRR it kind of annoyed me ,. her precious son will never do wrong in her eyes, i am aware of this

Re: FMIL - do you get along with her?

I great along Very well with FMIL & FFIL. They are so welcoming and kind to me. I am worried that my FMIL will hate me one day over something silly. She can have a nasty temper when crossed, so I tend to tread lightly. But I am sure one day I won't be able to.

Re: FMIL - do you get along with her?

I love my FMIL and get along with her wonderfully - now FFIL is TOTALLY another story. I can't even stand to be in the same room with the man - and I have told FH that I am afraid of him!
