Discuss............
Anyone got them? My GF's are terrible, her mother more so than her dad.
Most of mates mates are so lucky as they get on with there's, there's just no light at the end of the tunel for me, they both piss me off something chronic and they are so far up there own arses.
My rant for the day

I well my potential in-laws are ace. They treat me like a son, and my parents are the same with my Gf.
They treat me to days out, include me in most things. Hell they treat me like a son that much they ring me every few months at Uni to see how Im gettin on hehe.

I used to take this for granted, my rents treat her like there own, as mine treat her better than her own she likes to spend a lot more time with my family.
Her 'rents get really jealous as apparently they see it as a competition 
They apparently added a competition they are sadly loosing 
Worse part is they try to win us over with £ - but it always turns out sour

Dating an only child is the real way to win 
My current GF's folks are pretty cool, and my parents love her.

Ouch, well some times its nice to escape from my house, Sometimes I end up spending a few days round my Gf's house to cool off. Feel kinda guilty as they feed me etc.
Hell, my rents & her rents meet up. We spend xmas eve all together which is a pretty cool situation.

Ive gone wrong somewhere, she is an only child, sometimes i wonder if its me, however i tend to get on with 99% of people.
There deffo wierd, they sit in differnet rooms to each other when in the house, and go on there own seperate holidays - maybe there jealous of what we have - or there both pissed as they aint getting any

My GF's parents are awesome, they couldnt be better with me, they stock me up with food when i go home for uni, treat me to chinese when i go round, treat me like their son, maybe better than that  My parents not so much so in the reciprocation tbh, its really hurt her feelings, but we are moving in together in July 50 miles away from both sets of parents so all will be fine
Keep working at it, dont let them beat ya, and try and ignore any pettyness

im sure we will be fine etc, just pisses me off, they also put her down and treat her like shit tbh.
We have our own place, had it 'bout 7 months now. Every time her mother has come over she has just pointed little things out (She bit of a cleaning freak) the only nice thing she has said so far is "the window are nice" lol
Then she wonders why she never gets invited over, i need to try keep my cool, 1st time she got the house she said something along the lines of the kitchen in the house was falling apart (which it was a mess) and started laughing, that was me done and went f*cking ape, then her old man started, had to walk out before temptation of fists flying came.
I guess if i keep my cool and smile ive got the best of them

Ally :: My step mum had same problem with her rents, and now she done see them, GF wouldnt do this though, although i dont know why, if it was me i would have nothing to do with them as some things they have said / done are pure evil, last mothers day her mother threw all the pressies she had bought her in the bin infront of her

my ex's rents were fucking sound
think i'd been seeing her 3 weeks, and they bought me a new headunit when mine was fried mwahaha.
was like 100 quid too. 'Early bday pressy' they said.
she was rich, and blonde, and fit.

That reminds me, I need my Gf's dad to weld up a small hole that's been patched from the inside and left exposed on the outside on the passenger side rear footwell
