[quote=Anonymous]Maybe his family just has a different relationship with their children than yours? My in-laws are very inclusive of their adult children’s partners. Pre-marriage, we were all included on vacations (paid for by them), invited to weddings, included in pictures on the Christmas card, etc. They are generous with their time and resources and it’s not love bombing or insincere. They just welcome every significant other as a full member of the family unless told otherwise - one sister has had 3 or 4 serious BFs before her current husband. It’s really nice considering my prior serious relationships involved families where I felt like I was auditioning to earn a spot for years and could tell from their treatment of other sibling’s SOs that even after marriage I would never be a full fledged family member.
