[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Although its often talked about in a joking, fact of life, kind of way, my former in laws did actually destroy my marriage. They constantly put ex dh in the middle and I slowly but surely started resenting the lack of will power he had when it came to defending me. For the first 2 years they were annoying, the 5 years after that they were a constant burden, the final 2 years they were the nail in the coffin.  I tried to wait till they died but didn't have it in me anymore. My oldest dd, who is now in college, told me a couple weeks ago that her boyfriends parents were kind of strange and made her feel unwelcomed, I burst into tears immediately. I cannot imagine my daughter feeling an ounce of that pain. I will never, ever, ever treat my children's spouses like I was treated.[/quote]

PP I completely understand.  Been married 5 years and are in counseling because of DH's family...mainly MIL but its the entire dymanic and he does not know how to deal with it.  Its not completely his fault but he cannot manage his relationship with them and in turn our relationship is also suffering.

So yes screw my IL's is how I feel right now.  Although I know if our marriage is going to work I have to try and swallow my distaste for MIL.[/quote]
