[quote=Anonymous]I am usually sarcastic and talkative naturally so when we visit the ILs and i am more quiet or just polite, my DH sees it as me 'not being myself' and as a dis to his parents. Never mind that anytime I am "myself" they take offense as say I talk too much, am too prying (just asking about weekend plans, movies they have seen etc). Even being nice and not overly open, they complain and feel I talk too little, don't ask enough about their lives, seem distant. You really can't win. I have just learned to grin and pretend I am having the best time of my life. The kids moderately enjoy visiting them so I try to make it fun for them at least. [/quote]
