What would you do if you had to live with your in-laws for a couple of months?

Are you lucky enough to have in-laws that you get along with, or would it be a horrible experience for you?

i get along just fine with my in-laws but to live with them for a couple of months is another thing. when i gave birth to my son, we stayed at their house for a few days because there's no one to take care of me and the baby because i had caesarian. but after a few days that i could get out of bed without any help i told hubby that it's time we go home.

We stayed with them on vacation for a week. I kept the house clean for them every day and hubby and I flea dipped the dog for them. All they do is sit around and talk all day and late into the night . They are real slobs and the dog was full of fleas and was allowed on all the furniture. Yeah it was tough for a week . I sure would have a real hard time staying any longer . I know one thing they would have the cleanest house in the state of Mississippi !! I'd probably be on xanax!!! lol

Hi Kmarie923. Frankly, I'm still single. But in the future I will never live with my in-laws even just for a moment. I don't know maybe I've experienced seeing some of my relatives living like that, and it's like complicated and I can't bear it to happen to me in the near future. Some of my friends told me it's hard to live with your in-laws, it just because you are not relatively connected to each other. Well, I know this is normal, there are some adjustment at first but I can't bear to think what will happen in the first place. It just I am alone and like If they are one family there, I think I don't know how to handle the situation. I don't want to be in that situation in the near future. I want to have a stable life with my future husband, I want to have our own house before we are going to settle. You know, to prevent such things I don't want to happen.."living with in-laws" that's not my dream.

Oh gosh! I think I'd die! My in-laws are total slobs! I'm not saying that I'm a totaly neat freak, because I'm not, but I do take a shower every day and keep my teeth clean. Oh my... the thought if this is starting to get to my stomach... So it would be easier to say that it would be a horrible experience. Take care, Pinka http://pinkap.blogspot.com http://pinkap.etsy.com
