Ok, spill it...how do you feel about the in-laws (or ex-inlaws, or future inlaws, etc.) and be HONEST.
Tim - why is that, do you know? You don't have to tell me, I'm just being nosy as it seems that I feel much the same way as your wife.my wife on the other hand, still isn't really comfortable around my mother.....
Darn, is that all it takes??? hahhahahIf you tell your inlaws not to blame their disfuntions on you, they will stop talking to you.
Yep, I knowWow, this message is full of holiday spirit, isn't it?

We've been together over three years,and she lives a mile away. We see her frequently, and I feel that I know her quite well. I'm not trying to be harsh, but being honest. Thing is, when you are regularly being told that you are not doing something correctly (because it's not *her* way) - it doesn't make for a comfortable situation. For example, I make dinner, and it is "all right, but I usually don't put this much meat in my spaghetti sauce". The gardening looks "ok, but needs some more color". The roof color I like "looks horrible, and we should get the same color she has" (even though the houses are not even similar). This is seriously an ongoing thing....You don't feel comfortable around his mother, either? That's harsh. I bet you don't even know the woman.

That's why I was asking Tim about his situation, and how his wife dealt with it.

Don't feel bad - it's not your fault I'm an idiot today...it was actually pretty funnyDon't feel bad. My weak attempt at humor just didn't go over well.
Awww! How nice of her! Hopefully all is better in NH tooChristine...ironically, my wife just called me, and I mentioned this thread....she said to tell you that you have her sympathies, and that hopefully things will get better with time!!!

There are a bunch other ones - on the bottom left of the screen it will have a forum rules box, and it says something about smilies. Click on that, and it will give you a list of them.
