Do you get along with/like your in-laws? Or your SO's parents?

Aggiebelle's mom is in town this weekend for a visit. Honestly, I love the woman. So accepting and nice, and always has been towards me. Same for belle's dad and brother. Always felt comfortable with them, and sometimes my wife jokes that her folks love me more than her because they get so excited when I get to talk to them on the phone I consider myself lucky.

How about y'all? Do you care for your in-laws or is it a horror show?

Both sets actually. I don't come off nearly as toolish in person as I do on the internet.

My in-laws are awesome. My mother-in-law can sometimes be the meddling type, but she's also the sweetest lady you could hope to meet. She almost always takes my side when the Mrs and I have a disagreement, which drives my wife crazy.

Get along great with my father-in-law and am really close to him, especially since I lost my dad.

Just met my SO's parents within the last few weeks actually and they are awesome. Her dad and I talked for hours about sports and different things. He also plays Mario Kart damn near every day so we played that as well. Guy is a blast to be around

Her mom is the same way. Very warm and welcoming. Cooked us dinner a few times and was always willing to do anything for you. Probably going on a trip with them to Florida this summer so I'm really looking forward to getting to hang out with them again.

I love my in-laws, and have always had a great relationship with them.

I would pwn him in mario kart, just ask Tbird who the champ is.

But I don't have in laws. I don't even really like a lot of my extended family so that probably isn't a good sign.

Well I guess its not that I don't like them, I just don't like having to spend time around most of them, they are fine people though.

I don't know. The man has gotten 3 star rankings on every level of every cup in the game and wins a decent amount of online matches. He's pretty salty.

He doesn't have to--the trophy's sitting on my mantle, per par

And your SO's parents sound delightful, HJJ

Sounds like he needs a little spearhook action, a la Speed Racer

My in-laws are divorced and my MIL has since remarried. I love my FIL and my wife's stepfather, very different guys but both very cool in their own right.

As for my MIL, I certainly dont have animosity towards her but we've had our clashes. There was a time when she tried to be a little too involved in our relationship.

I really like my brother in law and his wife, we hang out with them fairly regularly.

I get along with her dad more so, even though the only connection we have is sports. He is straight coonass and I'm more city since I'm not big on fishing, hunting, guns, etc.....


The mom thinks the girl could do better as she was dating an offshore worker who made a hell of a lot more but was never around. I mean shite, when we bought our house I told her we would paint it and the mom tried to show me how to paint. Then a tire needed to be changed and I went to change it but the mom had called Triple A because she didn't think I knew what I was doing. Apparently she thinks I'm 1 step away from being mentally retarded.

I'm a Mario Kart champ on SNES. I really hated the Nintendo 64 version. A lot of the tracks were too long, and the boards weren't as fun.

Hell naw on that count

I really appreciate that my MIL has never tried to meddle with/alter my relationship w/ belle. Honestly that goes against her nature, but she respects us enough to give us our own sphere.
