We're still living on my in-laws residence since we were not able to find a right place for us. Grace period will ended tomorrow and I don't know how we gonna to answer and what to do if my FIL would ask us again to vacate right away tomorrow. We're living here in a hot seat, we're living against all odds, nobody sided us. We felt like an alien in my in-laws place. We are at the midst of so many things to think about; money, pressure of moving out,and so many other things that bother us concerning on our present situation. I am worried because right now my wife is complaining on internal pain on her abdominal and chest portion of her body. This is maybe because of the triggered stress. I just don't know when our problems would be just lessen a little if not all be solved all. I just hope we can survive.... Mobhomeir here 070612 1244hrs

My heart aches for the two of you. There is nothing worse then living somewhere that you are not wanted. Especially if its living with the in-laws who are not nice. I will pray for you both that something great happens soon that you can both move into a place of your own. I believe your wife should get checked out by a doctor to make sure she is ok. When I hear stories like this I thank God that my in-laws love me as much as I love them. God Bless.

It sounds as though you have been holding out for the "right" place rather than simply getting a place for the two of you. It is one thing to have to return to one's parents for a little while if one is single and childless and is unemployed and struggling. It is an entirely different matter when one is married and expecting that one's parents be okay with having their son-in-law living with them as well. Take whatever is within your means and make your own way. Your in-laws will never respect a son-in-law who is living with them rather than making a home for himself and their daughter.

it is better to go live a one single room then live with your father in law. You are not in a position to wait to find the perfect place.

i know the feeling. in laws can cause so much pressure. it's kind of like something you don't have to deal with in your marriage, but you feel like are forced to. i hope you and your wife get your wish. it is good to know that family is there, but not too close.

That's right my friend. Living with the in-laws is very hard to go along. Everyone of them wouldn't mine interfering our own personal life. Right now am still looking the right place for us...thanks for responding.. Mobhomeir here 070812 1539hrs

I'm sorry you are still in that bad situation. It is hard to believe they (or he) can treat his own daughter that way. I think if they knew they were causing their daughter stress they might give in a little. At least I would hope so! I was lucky with my in-laws, but then I never had to live with them!

I know that you will pass all this problems that you are encoutering now. Just keep on praying and it will help. Also, try to be strong and don't let your wife sees that you are loosing hope already. It is really hard to live with the in-laws, as many experienced this. Good luck and I know you can make it through.

dear Martin, I don't know where are all your bros and sisters (not your biological siblings and you know what I mean) We temporarily adopt a family (our bro/sis family) before they lost home. They approach us last week that their landlord wants them out of the rented house because they're not able to pay the rent for 6 months already. If only they've approach us earlier then the problem won't lead to this. Since we don't have enough money to pay for the 6 months rent they are temporarily staying in one room of our church ,till the time the whole congregation raise the money to pay the 6 months rent so they can move back to that place. The landlord keep some of their belongings locked inside the rented house and give us one month to raise the money. Now we're able to pay a few month and hopefully before the end of this month we can provide the remaining balance. Do they know your situation? Or are you hesitant to ask help from them? I feel so frustrated that I cannot help you with your situation my friend...:xx

Yes my dear bonita but I never told the whole personal story (how my in-laws treated us). They knew our situation but they have their own to attend to. Besides, I don't feel like telling them (my brethren) because it would give a bad image on my wife's side neither my side. It is only here on mylot that I could express my sentiments and sorrows to ease the burden I feel.Thanks for your concern my dear bonita. I will strive really hard to fight back...

hi, in having a partner in life of course you should have to be separate to the parents of your wife or even to your parents because it could not avoid that sometimes they will interfere,thats why here in my country moved and got separated to the parents after they get married.

Hi my friend, I know that you are in very difficult situation already but I think it's better that you try find a place for your family before it really gives bad effect to your wife health. Stress leads to so many health problem and I am sure you don't want that to happen to you or any of your family member. Sometimes it's better living In a small place that bring joy than living in a palace that bring pain. :-)

That's right my friend...it is really better to live in a small and simple house with full of love and harmonious rather a palace with full of troubles and no love at all... thanks a lot my friend for responding... Mobhomeir here 070612 1829hrs

Oh my, that's not an easy situation to be in. It really would be best for new couples to have their own place, even a small place you can rent. But, if that is really not an option, you'd have no choice but to be patient and learn to live with your in-laws. It's not going to be easy, especially that you're the husband. In-laws can be very judgmental and discriminatory. I think the best thing for you to do is to try your best to get things together so you can have your own place the soonest time possible.

Hi friend, sad to hear about this. As you mentioned your wife is having health issues, so her parents don't force you to leave from their place, parents don't have the ability to see the kids sufferings, so they will give some more time to you to find a place. Just search for the right place and go there with your wife. All the best for your house search

That's right my friend as what a responsible must do. But, with my FIL I doubted if my wife is his youngest daughter. Thanks for responding and yes we are still on the process of searching our elusive house. Thanks for your wish and concern... Mobhomeir here\ 070612 2209hrs
