20+ Mother and daughter-in-laws who cannot get along: 'My MIL is a huge boundary stomper'

When you choose your life partner, you're also choosing another new family to spend lots of time with. It can't be helped! Even if you love your BF to the moon and back, if your in-laws drive you crazy, you're going to start dreading seeing them each holiday. Instead of looking forward to Christmas with the in-laws, you'll start dragging your feet as you wrap up presents. Or maybe the GF's mom is so nit-picky about her BF that she can't say anything nice at all, leading that BF to skip out on her family gatherings entirely. 

If you're lucky, your mother or father-in-law can become like a second set of parents to you. Taking vacations together is a joy, and bringing the kids over to visit the grandparents makes the day fly by. However, if you ask the 1,800+ people who replied to this person's question, there are some less-than-ideal MIL/DIL situations going on here. While a few commenters shared that they have learned to get along with their in-laws, or have loved them from the start, there are an awful lot of folks who have never managed to get along with them. 

After that, read about the irritating customer who refused to listen to a retail worker reciting a policy to her, demanding that "I want to see a manager now."
