[quote=Anonymous]Yes. It wasn't bad, just ... cold. I don't know my grandparents and my parents are divorced so I never had any examples of seeing how to interact with inlaws. I come from a very uptight WASPy family where everyone is very formal and polite. My DH talks to his parents almost every day. They're huggers. We didn't really gel at first. Like, for the first several years. It got better as DH and I got closer. It got downright good when we had our first child, and they were so respectful of how I wanted things done. I really, really appreciated that. I am still not 100% hugging them every time we see each other, but I get that it's important to them and can do it without creating an awkward moment.[/quote]
