I saw this list on-line, and I wondered if any of you had any of these types of relatives?
10. The Aunt Who Wants To Know Just When Are You Getting Married?
9. The Cousin Who Wants to Convert You
8. The Future Mother-In-Law Who Just Doesn't Understand Why You Aren't Getting Married in a Church!
7. The Brother Who Wants To Borrow Money
6. The Jerk Who Married Your Sister
5. The Other Aunt Who Wants To Know Just When Are You Having a Baby?
4. The Disaffected 16-Year-Old Cousin Who Wants to Bum a Smoke
3. The Racist Grandmother
2. The Long-Winded Father-in-law Who Keeps Reminding You It's All About Family
1. The Drunk uncle.

i do have aunts who whenever meet me asks me when are you getting married and start giving lectures how important is it to get married early , have childrens fast.i avoid meeting then and another is my cousin who remembers me only when she needs me to do any work or when she needs money. But i am stuck because i can't be rude too.

No I can honestly say that I do not have any of these types, except for the racist grandmother who I don't think is so racist anymore.. my father in law is not long winded at all.

... and a partridge in a pear tree...
Funny stuff here kellys3ps but I think for some people, it is their reality.

=) this discussion topic is very nice.I dont have each of the options but to speak in general all of my relatives are typical question-asker.They ask almost about everything which dont concern them at all.This kind of relationships are too annoying when you get married or begin to live your own life.I wish you patience and strenght =)

Have you been peeking into my life??? I think I have all of them!!!
BUT:
family matters, you can't change them, but you don't have to allow them to change you. Yes, some of what they do/say is annoying, but some of it is priceless good advise, most of it is given in love and concern.
Ut-oh-----------I just figured out I am the long-winded father in law. [but I am female]

Lucky for me most of these dont apply to me or if they do I ignore them but how about few of mine:
" cousins that expect a lot from me and give nothing in return"
"same cousins that expect you to visit them but dont do the same"
"same cousins never write to you or send an sms but get pissed off if you dont"
"same cousins expecting just because you live overses that you should buy them things and send them over"
did I mention that I love my cousins (yeah right)
