ok, here's my dilemma. my fiancee's parents absolutely hate me. now some of you might wonder why i say that. well.. they flat out told her they do. they told her things such as they want nothing to do with me or our relationship, that i'm not good enough for her, that if they had their choice they'd make me disappear, things of that nature. now i know what's happening. they're trying to drive a wedge between me and her. they told her they won't be attending THEIR OWN DAUGHTER'S wedding. now i feel this is completely rediculous. how in the hell can people that claim to be adults act so childish? they drove their son into not talking to them and he died. my fiancee's mother told her that she wouldn't have changed anything about it. how's that for being a caring parent?? now, i'll admit, there will probably be boys that my daughter will date that i won't like. but i'd never try to make her choose between me or them nor will i ever try to break them up. that's just plain inconsiderate. to top this off, there's a topic about her parents in my journal, titled ' how the ******** can people be so cruel?' that i'd suggest you to read and comment on. i don't want to break my fiancee's family apart, but i'm in no way willing to end what we have. please, give me some advice. i really don't know where else to turn.

See, that's why it's better to try to find someone who also has parents you like, and who like you. xd

As for your problem, have you asked them why they don't like you? Ask them what it is about you they don't like.

I don't know, I don't have personal experience with stuff like this. sweatdrop

Try to stay calm and mature when you talk to them, which you should do. I'll read and give any advice I can. I've been in your shoes on ce before. Hang in there.

problem is, they're completely fake around me. they act as if they have no problems with me until i'm out of earshot. then, well... let the backstabbing commence.

How awful!

I guess sadly, unless they can grow up, your fiancee will have to choose...

That said, maybe if she just visits them occasionally without youthen she might be able to continue having some kind of relationship with them? Or is it past that stage?

Her parents remind me of the mother of one of my classmates (Her mother essentially acted as a catalyst in her brother dying).

I wish there was some advice I could you, but I have yet to solve the riddle of how to open other people's hearts. sad
