I was once in a relationship where my mother in-law just didn't like me. She hadn't met me yet but she new there was a woman who took her son's focus off track. Her and his family wanted him to enjoy life the way he was as a single man. They felt that his changing who he was for me was stupidity or something. When we would go visit and he would have to tell his old friends that he wasn't going to go clubbing with them. They were offended because that's not the man they know. Being in love was not in his character so to speak. The only thing that got us through all there criticism was his persistence in showing them he's happy in love.
