I like my other half's parents a lot. Sure there are times when we can get on each others nerves and fuses are short but none of this battle-axe type stuff you see in films.
Get on really well with my in laws - went on holiday with them last year for two weeks (wife went as well).
We also went out to the cinema with them just last night, we get on pretty well despite my mother in laws attempts to give me food poisening with every Sunday dinner
It helps that my father in law is also a big fan of whisky like myself
although not married, I have met all the GF's family on many occasions over the past 2 years, suprisingly we get on really well, especially her dad, he's a right laugh
We have our moments, she's hassling me to have kids which winds me up, but she's been really nice to me since I broke my leg, cooking us meals for the week etc so I can't complain
My partner gets on ok with my parents, mum winds us both up equally!!
Mine are great and every other day they pop round because they've got another half tonne of butcher made sausages they need to get rid off, so I can't complain
They don't swear or blaspheme, so I don't in front of them (which can be hard when 'Jesus ******* Christ on a bike' is one of your favourite phrases) but we have a good time when we are together and I've got massive respect for both of them.
Besides whenever we go down there we get fed great food and we always come away with at least a case of wine.
Mind I only see them every three months or so, it might be different if it was every week.
