Family and Love: Welcoming

Welcoming

Today, I was having lunch with my fiancé's family. After he excused himself to use the bathroom, his grandmother glared at me, sneered, "I never liked you" and kept eating while the others smirked. When my fiancé returned, everyone pretended nothing had happened. FML

Today, I took my girlfriend to a family dinner. Things went great, until my grandma arrived. She thought it would be okay to continue our friendly prank war by congratulating me on my "wife's" pregnancy. My girlfriend actually believed it, and now thinks she's the "other woman". FML

Today, my fiancé and I met his mother for lunch to discuss wedding plans. When we got there, I went to the bathroom to wash my hands. I heard a woman talking on her cell phone in the stall about her son's "disgusting, slutty girlfriend." The toilet flushed and my future mother-in-law walked out. FML

Today, I was at my boyfriend's grandmother's house meeting her for the first time. I excused myself to the restroom and as I walked out of the room I heard her say, "You could do a lot better. She's fat." Then I heard my boyfriend reply, "I know." FML

Today, to avoid disappointing my excited great grandmother, I still attended a small family dinner to celebrate my engagement. My fiancé and I split last night, I haven't slept and had to tell her he was caught up at work. FML

Today, I was eating at a restaurant when a man came up to me and said, "You're pathetic for having lunch with someone that much older than you." My dad immediately got up and punched the man in the face. My fiancé's parents had to walk in the door right as it happened. FML

Today, it was my wedding day. Midway through the ceremony, my grandma, who's tried to ruin every relationship to date, stood up and shouted that "it ain't right", "you're too good for her", and claimed my fiancée has been cheating on me, before she was finally ejected from the building. FML

Today, I was in a restaurant with my fiancée for dinner. I commented that she had some food around her mouth. She responded with a lecture, then by throwing her hot bowl of noodles at me, before stomping out the restaurant. FML

Today, my wife made me go with her to dinner with her parents, despite their long-standing hatred of me. Later on, my mother-in-law muttered to me, "I made yours special for ya", smirked, then made a show of scratching at her butt-crack. FML

Today, I went to a family dinner. My grandma wasted no time calling me a slut for not wearing a dress, my dad called my police officer boyfriend a "fucking pig", and then he told my mother to "put a cock in it" when she defended me. No wonder I hardly ever visit these people. FML

Today, while waiting for my boyfriend to get out of the shower, I chatted with his grandma. As soon as we hear him exit the restroom, she smirks at me and lets a huge, smelly fart out. She blamed it on me. My boyfriend believed her. FML

Tell your fiancee later, hopefully he'll understand.

Yikes. I think a talk with your fiance is in order. I doubt he'd think you're making that up, and he should really know if his family is unpleasant to you. Hopefully he'll explain to them that they should be civil to you. Maybe Grandma is going cuckoo though.

I find that the elderly are more honest since they have less time on the planet than younger folks.

The crucial point here, OP, is whether or not you told him what happened and whether he believed you. If you two are open and trust each other, you'll do well together even if his family suck.

Time for a chat with your Fiancée. Tell him what went down behind his back. And hopefully, he takes what you said as truth. Then the ball is in his court to confront his family. Good luck OP!

When your fiancé takes off again during another lunch. Say "I never liked you either."

No they don't. They'll have to tolerate her, but they don't have to like her.

Yup, being honest and being rude are different. And elderlies should use the wisdom of how much longer they have lived and respect others, not be grumpy of how less time they have left.

you can be honest no matter how long you think you have left. being a **** is never acceptable, regardless of age...

Consider suicide. It may help

Uh oh. Time to find out if your husband is going to be your husband or his family's little boy. Tell him what happened. If he doesn't believe you or ignores it, it might be time to reconsider. If he's angry and calls his grandmother to tell her it's not acceptable, it's a keeper. Does he have your back? Time to find out BEFORE you walk down the aisle and end up stuck with a family that doesn't like you and a husband that takes their side. Hopefully he's pissed off at grandma and his relatives :)
