I told my hubby that I would NEVER go to any of his families homes, not for holiday's, not for any reason, and I meant it. I also told him that he did NOT have to go around my family he did not wish too. BUT at the same time, ANY of his family is welcome at OUR home. As the house belongs to the both of you, that is only fair. And so far for the past 8 years there hasn't been a problem. His family don't come around me, call me or bother me at all.

let me ask you this... are you telling me that there isnt a member of the family on your side that annoys you or is a pain in the rear? family is family. you married into them. they are your family to. think about how you would feel ... going to family functions all alone.... how are you going to feel about the 10th time someone says so wheres your man at? you are goinjg to feel alone and like you have no support. suck it up and stick it out. they are family.

you should of though about that before you got marry. I am not joking.....You guys are now joined together for better and worst and that inculdes the in-laws...They are now your family too. No matter how much you do not like them...Hey he might think they are bad too...but you have to make the most of it...Besides I am sure he thinks some thing is strange with your family too....Marriage is all about a give and take...Good luck with that.

You don't have to be involved with them all of the time, it's your choice...
Your husband knows what his family is like... so no use stressing the fact they are a pain... he knows, i'm sure.
sometimes we have to accept others at face value and go forward with life, whether we like them or not! take care.

thats a tough one if you don't have a legitimate reason. If they are basicallly good people but just annoying its hard. You might hurt your husband's feelings. But maybe hes annoyed by them too. I'd tell him, and maybe just limit the amount of time you spend with them.

I don't think you're going to be able to get out of ever seeing them. Just tell him that you can't bare it, but you will every once in a while...when you married him, you became part of that family, so I don't think you can totally put them out of your life....I'm sure he'll unerstand and be ok with putting limits on it though...

Honesty is the best policy.
But ultimately, you're going to have to spend *some* time with his family. Maybe if he wants to spend more time than that, he can find ways to not drag you along.

Tell your husband you don't like being around them and
explain why.
OR
Suffer through in quiet torment.

Well, you could just tell him...but that could put a major kink in your relationship. Unfortunately, in laws come with the territory, and you just have to bite your tongue. Just remember...smile and nod! That's my motto!

Just tell him. No doubt he already knows that they are a pain.
