    Both of my fiancé's parents are passed away, but from what I have heard, I know I would have loved them.

    I like my SO's parents but they can be a major pain in my @$$ sometimes...he is an only child so his relationships with his parents is quite different from mine.

    @EmCarroll - I am sorry to hear that :-( I am glad I have "in-laws" even if they get on my nerves sometimes.

    Yep, mine are pretty awesome!

    (My mother-in-law logs her calories on this site so any other answer would be unacceptable).

    My fiance hasn't seen his dad since he was around 12, but I absolutely love his mom. We talk for at least an hour anytime one of us calls the other because neither of us can shut up, lol.

    I just went through your pictures and I'd feel the same way, your children are absolutely beautiful.

    They drive us NUTS! Yes, my husband too! I think they're both manic.

    Now my grandparent-in-laws, are amazing. They're have my <3...and I think hubby's mother can't stand that! *wicked laugh*

    My fiance's mum is fantastic. One of the kindest, most generous people I've ever known. She and my fiance's sister met me before we were in a relationship and were wonderful hosts to a group of us visiting his home for his birthday. Then we got together, and she's been so wonderful and welcoming, making me feel at home whenever I visit and taking a genuine interest in my life. She even took me in for Christmas a couple of years ago when I was going to be spending it alone.

    I didn't grow up in a good household. I've never known what it's like to be close to family members and for a long time I found it a bit...creepy...how close my fiance is to his, but having spent a fair amount of time with his immediate and extended family I'm starting to see the value of close family relationships. His whole family are great.

    I ADORE his mom, and I don't particularly enjoy being around his father (I'm being diplomatic here). Since they haven't been married in over a decade, and my husband has somewhat similar feelings, it works out okay.

    I love my hubs parents, even though I think that they spoil and enable their adult children entirely too much. I guess I could say I am slowly weaning my hubs away from them :)

    I love my in-laws, BUT my Dad-in-law has become extremely and staunchly pro-Republican and VERY vocal about it in the last five years, which totally gets on my nerves. I do my best not to mention anything political EVER, because it's guaranteed to cause him to rant. Yuck, I hate that. Mo-in-law is wonderful, very sweet.:smile:
