I know that some people do. I was lucky and actually liked mine.....well sort of. Not really.... I liked mine. There were who they were and that is all I
could expect, I suppose.
Anyone got any in-law or parents stories they want to share?

My husband's brother banned me from his up coming wedding. Why because of his parents issues. They moved 3 hours away in November of last year. They came
down for a week last week and left back home yesterday. Why did they come down to help his brother remodel his home. He is completely depended on them and
devoted to them. I honestly am being convinced that they are rewarding his brother for banning me from the wedding, for them by helping him fix up his house.
They are trying to smell like a rose by saying they have no control about it, but they do. I think they are acting very immature by trying to create friction
and pressure on my husband. I know what they are doing and how his mom has been behaving, trying to sadistically get us to come over to see them at his
brother's house given the circumstances. It looks like they are trying more to use this to their advantage to try to break us up. That is something you
just don't do, slit a marriage for your own personal gain. Don't they consider that they would want the best for him? Someone that will take care of
him when they are gone? They may think they are invinceable but who knows what happens from day to day. They are really crippling his brother to totally be
committed to them 100 percent. He would be really lost if something would ever happen to them, especially if he starts treating his future wife cold over them.
I don't know he could actually function. He has this big commitment with them and has vowed to always put them first, even above his future wife. I wonder
what the wedding vows are! LOL
She may be ok with that right now because they don't live together, but that crap will get old fast. how could he ever have kids and be able to put his parents first?! I don't think he will want to and she wants kids from what I have been hearing.

Just popping in for a second....I'm actually working today. Whoa.....do you mind if I ask you how long you've been married and why you were banned from the wedding? That sounds sort of harsh. Have you always had problems with the in-laws?

My in-laws were in many ways the antithesis of my own parents. While both my folks and my wife's parents shared certain values such as honesty,
self-reliance, the necessity of a good education, and a spirit of community activism, there also were substantial differences between them stemming mostly from
the fact that my mother and father were country people to the core, while my wife's folks were the epitome of urban sophistication.
Most of the differences we've experienced in our marriage have been based on conflicts brought about by our urban vs. rural outlook and sensibilities. For example, it annoys the hell out of me that my wife still refuses to learn how to ride a horse (she refers to them as "filthy, sweaty beasts"), even though I graciously consented many years ago to learn about, and participate in, her opera activities. It's just not fair. Widge |

Oh Gawd...how many times have I heard a man say "it's not fair" LMAO
Does it say, anywhere in your marriage agreement that your wife was gonna be fair? Since I know you don't have a lot of experience with women, Widge, I share this with you. Women are not fair, we have you men on a leash and your all so busy being full of yourself you don't realize it.

I've had 2 sets of inlaws. I adored my first set. They were wonderful, loving folks, despite having a son that was a creep. I miss them terribly.
I also adored my second father-in-law. He was everything that a good man should be. My MIL, however, was a different story entirely. I'd say that she has been the root cause of 90% of the problems my husband and I have had through the years. |

We hit a few bumps early on, but soon after my husband and I got married, I realized that they were wonderful, caring people. The first time I ever saw my FIL
smile from ear to ear was the day my daughter was born. I'll never forget that.
