They don't relate to me one bit. They're small-town Protestant folks. For their daughter to have a child out of wedlock with a foreigner is a bit unsettling to them, but they're trying their hardest to keep their cool.

It took them over a month to meet the kid in person cause they would not drive down to Toronto in "this weather".

Does this bother your future wife? I seriously hope it's not affecting her. It shouldn't.
 
My in laws have their quirks but they're totally alright for 48-72hr peiods... MAX. The overarching I have about them is they are an entitled lot and they complain/are negative about everything.

MIL is a status freak and $ is central to her being. I've only gotten in one alcohol fueled screaming match with her. We were dating and.living together for 3-5 years and were looking for a new apt. I suggested that we might look at a neighborhood in Queens, Long Island City. Admittedly, when the MIL lived in NYC it wasn't the coolest place to live.. but at the time it was being developed pretty hard and there were some cheap opportunities. Anyhow at dinner (Thanksgiving) her reply was "You are not taking my daughter to Long Island City." So I reply, "I'm not taking your daughter anywhere, shes 27 years old and this is America so I let her make her own decisions." The situation escalated as did the volume level. It all ended with her storming out after saying "If you two move to LIC I'll never speak to you again" and me, excited at the prospect, shouting back "oh is that all it.takes?"

Funny stuff Boner. Your MIL sounds like quite the snooty cunt. Have you ever flat out told her to go fuck herself?

Yes you can.

I can't say aside from my own mother, I've ever gotten into it with another persons family.

I've gotten into it with 2 sisters and as I've mentioned I had to put her mother in her place. He sister who I don;t care for goes online our home is her home.

One thing I hate is her sisters just drop in whenever they feel like it. I've made comment about how rude it is for people to just drop in on family/friends without a phone call. The last time I did that was about 2 months ago. I think they may have gotten the hint as they don't seem to pop in out of the blue that much anymore. I think that's downright rude. I NEVER drop into anyone's house out of the blue like that.
 
I have nothing against the family of the woman my brother married but they are hard core religious and have their own set way of doing things. Nothing against them but I just never really wanted to be part of that, so we do our own separate Holiday then they go do that which is cool; they might not see it the same way but I just don't care.
 
I've never told the MIL off. Figure I've got a lifetime to do that. I assume once kids on are the scene im gonna have to establish some serious boundaries. I've gotta give them all a break since my family is no picnic for my wife and she manages them pretty damn well.

Ya that's nasty. I bet it was over a will (parents) or something related to financial shit within the family.

LOL! Genius! Sorry but detail needed for whole story! Her older sister got the mother to change the will over to 100% for herself couple months before mom died of cancer in 2000! MrsM had no idea of this and MrsM's birthday was a month after mom died and she gets BDay card from sister saying how much she loves her ...... same stuff every year!

Weird part was maybe a day later she's got a note left in mailbox saying to pick up a letter at the post office! Picks it up and is a copy of the will showing MrsM cut out completely! I mean her sister and her got together or talked on a daily basis their whole lives! Always thought it was neat to have a sibling that close to you as a friend!

Her mom and sister more or less could have been Man Haters of the Year winners every year complaining bout their husbands constantly! We would take MrsM sister with us everywhere ..... even dinners where if we went with a couple we knew, she came along so it made it a 5 some! Husband was a total ahole!

MrsM finally had enough and say in 1995 and starting seeing them a lot less! Now when she went to her mom's house her mom was happy to see her but sister usually was not as friendly! You also should know MrsM's sister lived in the house directly behind her mom's! My mom-in-law wanted us to originally buy the house but we didn't!

We knew her sister was obsessed with money or lack of it, but always gave the outer appearance of being MrsM's BFF even though things between them weren't as tight as before! Pucky you know! Money does make people do weird shit!

Every couple years MrsM still gets a birthday card from her telling her how much she misses her! :wacko:
 
Mr. Nina's mother died before we met. And now his dad is in a nursing home. That just leaves his asshole brother but we don't have a lot to do with him. I am constantly amazed at how his parents managed to raise two completely different men.

I knew it!!! Man that is something else. So has your wife spoken to her at all or completely keeps her distance and not talk to her anymore? What a sneaky cunt!!! Money is the root of all evil.

Nah. She knows her parents mean well (I don't!) and she even understands how it took them a month to trek all the way down to Torontoland to meet their first grandchild.

:dunno:

Lamos.

:bashing:

All good. His paternal grandparents are going to be the cool ones.
