"Can you imagine a more stressful in-law to have other than the Queen?

Hi HWG.. LOL on the **added disclaimer. That's nice to hear you're having a good time with your future mother-in-law(MIL). I wonder was is it like to you with the first one (I mean you first in-laws). Just heard a story from my officemate this morning, she's so mad at her MIL because of money. Her MIL asks for money even though she(MIL) knows they're having a hard time on it. So I think "money" adds up to the problem. Really the root of all evils.

hehehe, had to throw in the disclaimer because I am going to Arkansas for one month to see her and while I am there she will see me myLotting and for sure will want to join. She is the love her or hate her type of person but truly she means well. I actually did not have a relationship with my ex's parents because they had passed long before I met him. From what I understand I would have loved them as I can see that because she had 18 kids, all of which my ex being the only dysfunctional one the rest were truly grand, especially the 14 girls. Yeah I have heard of so many stories with in-laws it often frightened me to ever have one. I think that is why I handled my boyfriends mom with kit gloves. Slid right in and made sure she liked me and well, I know she loves me. I am the only one who will sit and listen to her for hours on end. Oma means grandma, so if she ever reads this I do love her. Just reassuring. lol

Oh, I see. Hope she joins here too. It amazed that your ex has 17 siblings?? Gosh, I wonder how his parents managed them. But so sad he's the only dysfunctional and maybe the reason why you two are separated? Well, have a nice one-month vacation with your future MIL... Oma is korean word, right?

Yikes! Good thing she was your EX-WIFE. Bad girl she is! She shouldn't do the things she's doing with her parents. Well, anyways, that was already past and what matters now is you're living in a wonderful world. Keep it up inertia! Good luck!

Hi barehugs... Do you think the Queen will like soon-to-be-princess Kate? Hmmmm.... Well, best of luck to her! The royal life will start tomorrow and hope she will be happy to her new life.

Hi cutie... Well, good for her. Kate was always being compared now to Princess Diana and to other Princesses. I wonder what was her plans to uplift her image well enough to outrun the other royalties. Surely being a Princess is awesome!

Hi nsawork.. Welcome to mylot! Good to hear you've seen good in-laws. But most of the time and also most of the people will say in-laws are bad. Hope when your time come to have an in-law, it will be as good as the ones you knew.

Hi dianne... Oh, that was a bad one.. Back stabbers are the worst enemies of people. You can't guess what was waiting for you after you turn your back on them. They're good but they're bad.

Hi cher... Just hide when you got caught. So do you have any experiences dealing with your in-laws?

Hahaha! Do as stated. You will feel you're really talking to a Queen and not to an in-law. But in real life, like that of Kate Middleton, I think Queen Elizabeth is not that stressful enough to handle. And surely Kate has found ways to make it a formal family affair with to royalty.

Thanks for the FR soumya... I bet I can't understand an Indian soap unless translated in English. Well, it's normal for parents to be possessive. Sometimes I think they'll be missing their kids when they will have their families that's why they act that way. But what I don't understand is, why would their relationship between their son- or daughter-in-law will not be good? Like you said "do not have very good rapport."

I guess that's the only way to make things peacefully. So bad to hear you have one. Well, I wish it would change later, well, um, somehow. Goodluck!
