    I get along with mine pretty well.  They have always been super sweet to me.  But I'm not sure I would say "excellent"...
  • Not me.

  • pretty good I don't see or talk to them enough to be excellent

  • We see my MIL all the time.  She lives really close, and we get along great.  Even when DH goes out of town for work, she and I will meet up and go out to dinner and whatnot.  My FIL we don't see more than a couple times a year b/c he lives on the other side of the state, but we get along just fine!

  • I like my inlaws, will I like them even more when we move away...Yes lol They are wonderful but very opinionated so that gets old real fast. But on the other hand the family bond they have is very strong and they have accepted me with open arms.
  • :::raises hand::: I love my in-laws! and DH loves his!

  • i have a great relationship with my MIL and her husband. however not so much with my hubbys father, i always try but he distances himself from me. he has done things that make me feel like he wants nothing to do with me. weird cause his whole mothers side is awsome and his fathers side is quite the oppostie.
  • DH has 2 brothers (all very close in age with DH being the oldest). My youngest BIL is very sweet and we get along great. My other BIL is pretty much a selfish jerk.

  • Me! I can't say they really ever even annoy me. I couldn't ask for better in-laws.
  • i must say I got lucky in that department. We get along very well and treat me like their own daughter.

    I have a good relationship with mine
    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • Me!  My sis-in-law and I talk on the phone during the day all the time, and my MIL is great!  FIL we don't see so much, but the relationship between he and DH is different since his parents got divorced.  No complaints here!
  • DH loves my family so all is well there.  Me with his family is a whole new story.  They are crazy. Batshiit. Crazy.  I try to avoid at all costs.

     

                      Well, we're on our way to 3 kids, 3 and under.
                        Set to welcome the craziness in April 2014!

  • Me! Although Im definitely closer with DH's mom and step-dad b/c they live only about 2 miles away. His dad and step-mom live in Chicago so I havent had as much of a chance to develop a relationship. But I still get along great with them aside from that!

    This is me, too, with DH's parents. ?There's nothing wrong with our relationship, but I still don't feel that comfortable with them when DH isn't around. ?We don't see them that much, so I think we just don't know each other that well, which can make it a little more awkward.

    I have a harder time with his siblings. ??

    ***************************** Our beautiful daughter was born in October 2009. Turns out she was quite the miracle. After two years of TTC, diagnosed with DOR. A couple of failed treatment cycles later, we decided to let go of our hope for more biological children and explore adoption.
  • I do with MIL & Step-FIL. We see them a few times a week for dinner or just to hang out. They're the greatest.

     

    I like FIL well enough but we're not close at all.

    Me! I totally lucked out. 
    Baby Birthday Ticker Ticker M/C #1 - BFP 12/28/2008. Confirmed m/c at 6wks - blighted ovum on 1/9/2009. M/C #2 - BFP 6/16/2009. Confirmed m/c at 7wks - blighted ovum on 7/1/2009.
  • There okay, I'd say we get along "good", when visiting them I would still rather be at my own parents house and when they come to my house and my HB is not home I'm super uncomfortable. ?Then again, we have only been married for 7 months so maybe is will be "excellent". ?
  • im closer w/ MIL than i am my own mom. 1) b/c she lives closer and 2) b/c my mom is just a lot to handle sometimes, but i love her!

     

    i have an awesome relationship with ILs though. They helped me out a little financially when i was struggling through school, and have always  been there for me from day 1 ... MIL and I talk at least twice a week!

  • I get along well with my MIL and FIL and SIL, however my BIL is the most self centered ignorant idiot I have met. His FI isn't any better. And they are living with us at least until their wedding in July. It's the most stressful and irritating postion I have EVER been in!
  • Nope not me. It was great for the first 3 years when I didn't get along with my family as well, crazy teenage years. But the last 4 years havent been as good since I stopped doing what they wanted. They don't agree with me being in college, they think its not necessary, so thats quite a sore spot!
  • We get along so great. They are very supportive and I couldn't ask for better in-laws.

    OOH! Me! My IL's are absolutely amazing people. I wouldn't trade them for anyone in the world!
    imageimage
  • Me! My in-laws are great! My MIL is so nice and she is just a great person to be around and my brothers-in-law are all pretty good guys. Most of them are just like friends to us.
  • Right here. I adore my ILs. They are outstanding people and I am so lucky to have them in my life.
  • I do. My MIL & FIL passed away before DH and I met. However, I get along with his siblings and sometimes do a girls night out with his cousins. I also consider his grandmother to be mine and call her granny. I really love her.

    I do. Me and MIL get a long really well. Thank god to, she made BIL's ex girlfriend cry. She called her a skanky biitch and told her if she stepped foot in her house again she'd beat the crap out of her. Haha.
  • Nope...they're not awful, we just have nothing in common except DH so it's always weird and awkward.
  • i love most of my in-laws except my sis-inlaw is a hot mess. i'm cordial though.
  • I really get along with my MIL.  FIL passed away before we got married.
