This is so great! I'm glad you have someone to step in for you. And I am so sorry to hear about your moms passing.

It definitely takes getting to know your MIL to build a good relationship with her. I thought mine was just okay with me at first because my wife is definitely a favorite child lol. I thought she was upset that I was taking her "little girl" away from her. But once we started spending more time together, our relationship really improved.

My MIL is veryyyy judgmental. Thankfully doesnt really interfere in our life but definitely asserts her opinion on what we should be doing and gossips to her friends and rest of the family about it. It’s also an issue that she goes and tells them our business before we get a chance to

Ugh! That is so annoying. I would probably stop telling her things if she continues to do that.

I'm super fortunate and have hit the in-law jackpot. I really like my MIL and we talk often. My husband and I do laundry at their house every weekend and spend the day/have dinner with them. Usually my husband and his dad are watching sports in 1 room and I'm talking with his mom in another for most of the day. I also have a great relationship with his sister (we jokingly argued who would get to have her on their side for bridal party. I won lol). His whole family has been accepting of me from day 1 and are just really good people. My family adores my husband as well, and have also been very open and accepting of him.

I would say we get a long fine. She grew up in El Salvador and although her English is not bad, there is still some language and cultural barriers. She has never been rude to me and she always makes sure I am well fed lol. And I do have much love and respect her and her beliefs and ways, but it can still be difficult at times. We both try our best to understand each other and respect each other and generally get along.

My MIL is great and we get along well. We aren't super close, but I don't feel uncomfortable around her and generally like her. She raised an incredible son. Both his parents and mine aren't too fussy and have been really supportive of us with everything (the wedding, our house, spoiling our dog) so we are lucky in that regard.

I'm actually super close with my future MiL, she has welcomed me from day one. We are always doing stuff together, and going places. We even invite my mom along as well. I feel I got super lucky with my in laws they are amazing. On that note though she dose sometimes say things that sometimes hurt my feelings, I don't think on purpose. Im a VERY sensitive person and it doesn't take much. We had our wedding planned for earlier this year, but due to COVID had to cancel. We rescheduled for next year around the same time, but instead of doing our planned destination wedding we are getting married in our hometown possibly at the courthouse. She keeps making little jabs at the fact that I shouldn't get my hair and nails done for a courthouse wedding. That a wedding isn't about the dress, make up, and all that stuff. Stuff that I know isn't making our wedding. But I still want to feel special on our big day. Even though we may get married at the courthouse, I want to be pampered and look nice, plus we are leaving for our beach honeymoon the morning after our wedding.
