How do you feel about your future mother-in-law?
I didn't get off to a good start with my fmil. Fh proposed to me before I met her and I don't think that she has really accepted me yet. When we first got engaged, she would refer to me as fh's "girlfriend" when she introduced me to someone and everytime fh's sister would correct her, she still wouldn't acknowledge that I was his fiance. Then she makes remarks to her son that "we" aren't married yet and that he is still a part of their family until we get married. Although she says these things jokingly, I really take them seriously because she and I don't have a joking relationship. I tried to talk to fh before about this but I don't think that he understands how I feel. I tried to talk to my mom about it and she thinks that I am overreacting but I just feel like my fmil doesn't want fh to get married to ME.
Do any of you have similar problems with your fmil?

I don't want to worry you but it does sound like she may be having a problem accepting you. My FMIL can be a bit nasty at times. She even once told me thjat I am on the borderline of fat and I should not have anymore candy until the wedding. Can you believe that??? At least your FSIL has your back. Mine just laughs along with the FMIL or adds her own little jibe. My Fiance still thinks I am overreacting but my friend witnesed it first hand.
I believe you.

Ouch Lala. My fmil probably thinks that I am too black and too fat! Fh only dated light skinned girls in the past and his mom is light skinned. I hope it doesn't boil down to this but fh told me how his grandmother didn't approve of her sons marrying dark skinned women. I think she must have picked up some of those ignorant genes...lol
Lord save us from OURSELVES lol. I hope it's not something as trifling as that! My hubby is almond joy dark. I just love it! So is his entire family. They are like the local beauty queen mavens. People call them black l;ik it's a curse, but you can't deny how gorgeous they are! Don't let that woman get you down.
You won her baby boy! She is probably just a little salty that he is taken and she can't have her way with him anymore. :D
