MakemineVanilla Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Dem why ask her to marry you in the first place mate? Well done on binning off the nutjob after the stag though fella, excellent work It's best done on Facebook, from what I've heard.'Demitri_C changed his relationship status to single'. Mate when I look back at this I made a huge cock up. Basically from day one of this relationship I was under pressure. Meeting her brother after one month, meeting her mum and dad after two then 3 and half months in spending christmas with near enough her whole family. after 8 months in every week when you going to propose, whats your intentions tc constantly. So a year and half in I thought let me show my commitment and propose. That will also get them off my back. Did it? Hell no made things a 1000 times worse. Biggest mistake of my life wa snot proposing for teh right reasons and I see that now Thank god I am free!!!!!!!!!!!!Dem why ask her to marry you in the first place mate?

Stevo985 Posted October 15, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted October 15, 2015 I have friends who have been together for nearly 40 years who never allowed their respective families to meet each other.I don't think my and my gf's family would be friends anyway.Not because of any dislike, but they're of different generations. My parents had kids much later than hers. Meaning that despite us being almost the same age, my dad is a full 20 years older than her dad. I'm sure they'd get on. But I doubt they'd become friends or anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjmooney Posted October 15, 2015 VT Supporter Share Posted October 15, 2015 I have friends who have been together for nearly 40 years who never allowed their respective families to meet each other.Do go on...In a word, class. His family is Sheffield/Irish, Catholic, working class, council house, socialist. Hers is home counties, middle class, ex army officer, Tory. They said the thought of the two families at a wedding was too horrific to contemplate, which is why they never got married.They have three kids (now grown with kids of their own), who have been close to both sets of grandparents - but never at the same time.

StefanAVFC Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 (edited) Me and my partner's parents wouldn't be able to understand each other, never mind get on.The missus, who speaks fluent English, couldn't understand my mum for a month.

rjw63 Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Basically it is a long story but i have not been happy in my relationship for a while but I put it down to wedding stress. But when I went on my stag my boys who went with me could see I was not really happy with her but kept it to themselves. Then my cousin who i was sharing with said to me are you sure your happy with this girl Dem? That's when I just finally let it all out how unhappy I was and was not sure if I could marry her.Basically my ex is a control freak. She would try tell me how to dress if she did not like something I wore. She even had the nerve to me every weekend say I cant watch football because she does not like it! One time she actually snatched the control off me and said I ain't watching this shit and turned the channel. Massive row. then there is the witch of a mother in law. the woman trying to tell me why have I not put my exs name on my flat? what the hell has it got to do with her? She telling I MUST wear a cravat at the wedding and not a tie under any circumstances. Again what the hell does it have to do with her? Back to my ex she tried tactics like trapping me by saying lets not use a condom (obviously to try get pregnant) but no chance. I knew what she was after. She also threw a white gold necklace at me for xmas as she did not like it. That really pissed me offI basically knew after the stag I did not want to be with her during the stag as I did not miss her and the thought of her touching me made my skin crawl. thats when I knew. Obviiously when I broke it off she went berserk and got some shitty digs from her turd of a mother That would do it for me. Sounds like a top decision mate. This.Can't believe anyone would act like this, sounds a stuck up ****. Must have been bloody good at something for you to put up with that shit...;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adw95 Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 Haha thanks Rodders!To be honest it wasn't planned so I'm a bit worried, however I think we'll get through it. Me and my then-ex, were trying to work things out and seemed to be progressing really well after being separated for a few months, although that has then ended up in a pregnancy! Onwards and upwards I guess!Should have DHUTWU. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rugeley Villa Posted October 15, 2015 Share Posted October 15, 2015 when i got with mine her sister,sisters fella,brother and mother did not like me which was because of the past but once they got to know me better we got on great although we still had our ups and downs. now my missus and my mum have had some right fall outs but in the same breath they have got on great at times but the real bond my missus had was with my gran who was the rock of the family and i can honestly say she fell in love my gran from the off which was great because i was closest to my gran more than anyone. two different families though because mine is not close at all but hers is very close.i finally realised the other day id be lost without her and i have not really appreciated her so its kind of opened my eyes.

PompeyVillan Posted October 16, 2015 Share Posted October 16, 2015 Sometimes the simple things are the best for me. A cup of coffee in the morning when the missus is doing some yoga. That 'downward dog' position looks familiar. Simple pleasures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
