Your Other Half's family
Discussion
Is there anyone who gets on better with their partner's family?
I know that mostly individuals will favour their own family as they have grown up with them. However, my two serious relationships I have struggled with the OHs family.
One were like the local mafia. The ex was council made good and hated by his family. Thankfully, my partner felt the same and we managed to put some distance between us and them and only mixed at the parent's funerals.
Second time, the family were more middle class, but the siblings seem to have no motivation to rise above sitting at home on benefits. Again, only mix at weddings and funerals and the occasional Christmas.
Whereas the OH gets on well enough with my family to go on holiday with them and we often meet up for lunch.
