[quote=Anonymous]I just got off the phone with a friend who spent the last few days with her MIL who I find lovely. I find her easy to talk to and down to earth and I love when our families get together. But my friend thinks she's overbearing and uptight. And my friend loves my MIL - thinks she's funny and carefree and confident. Yet I think MIL is shallow and insecure and too distracted and impulsive to watch the kids for very long. It's so different to be just aquainted with someone vs blending your lives. For the same reason you have plenty of friends you love but wouldn't want to marry or travel with - there are very few people in the world that you want to spend THAT much togetherness with, and you usually get to pick and choose them carefully. But you don't get to choose that with ILs. [/quote]
