They hate me so therefore I'm not to fond of them either


Me siento feliz con tu familia y siempre un poco más cómodo. Sólo tu hermana no me habla mucho.
Si, eso va a tomar tiempo

Amazingly so! They have completely accepted me into the family, welcoming me and making me feel so comfortable. I even had lunch with the whole family the other day without my partner and tho I felt a bit awkward at the beginning, I soon felt at home. I love his family and I hope he will love mine.


His kids are great, his parents are more challenging as they are elderly with numerous health concerns so it is more difficult to be friends.


Two thoughts came to mind. With her extended family I feel pretty good. They have been gracious and friendly. Her immediate family has been a different story. Her sister is great, but her mom doesn't like me and that has been tough
No, when we went to battle the other day, this was clarified. She said, "This is not at all about that. How can I not like him when I haven't even had an opportunity to get to know him. I never said that, I was just concerned about the 3 kids."

I feel alright with them.


I feel ok....


I pretty much get along with most, but she is very uncomfortable with most in her family so it makes me uncomfortable.


Very. Probably a lot more than I feel at my own. Less judging and less chance for a fire, stabbing or police raid.


I feel like they think I'm below their standards and not someone they wanted they're son to end up with and he probably feels the same since we are very different have different views on things pretty much everything almost it seems I don't know I think he just got stuck with my lame ass as a girlfriend for now I honestly have no idea how he or his family feels about me but I know it's not ideal


I feel very at home


At home with his mom and nothing with his dad.


I love his younger sisters! I haven't spent much time with his other family, but they feel excepting of me, which makes me feel pretty great :)
