yes... they yell at me to not be so hard on him. When we fight they always take his side. Haha.

Yup, they love him! My BIL complains that my husband is the favorite son in law even though he hasn't been around as long.

Oh yeah! I've joked and said that if we ever split my mom would keep him because she already has another daughter.

They highly approve of my husband. The only other SO of mine they approved of was a gay guy (it was a mutual get-family-off-our-backs-about-dating, and for me, get-the-stalker-off-my-back deal. I wonder if he's still in the closet.) I'm glad they liked the keeper.

YES. They love him so much. They treat him just like a son. They're so awesome with him, sometimes it makes me sniffly about it all.

YES - I think they love him more than me sometimes.

yes. My DH and my dad are like BFF. They hang out just the two of them all the time.
Also, my little siblings adore him and really look up to him.

Yes!!!! They always call and text him before they contact me. Sometimes I'm like wtf?! Lol. I'm just glad they love him so much!

Yes! They love him. They did not love my exes. It certainly does make life easier.

At first they weren't sure. But they love him now (well we've been together 8.5 years, married 4 and have 2 kids) haha.

It took a while but yes.
My mom loves the fact that he cooks, cleans and is handy! Not common in Chinese men! hahah

Umm... they like him okay I guess, haha. My brother loves him, because they have so much in common. But my parents think he can be stubborn (which is true). I think they'll love him though once we give them grandchildren, haha.

Absolutely! My mom totally loves DH and has completely taken over buying his wardrobe! (He's an easy dresser, so Levi's and a polo shirt does it).
She also loves BIL (he's about the same age as my younger bro) and has been his beef jerky supplier!

My family LOVES him. My mom always sends him texts to say hi, particularly during football season. It's so cute!
pomelo / 5178 posts
Yes. My family is all girls, and I was the first one to marry, so my parents consider my husband their "first son," lol.
coconut / 8299 posts
Yes, they do. My mom expects more from him though but that's because she's looking out after me. lol. She wishes he made more money so that I can be a SAHM.

They disapproved the entire time we dated, almost disowned me when we got engaged, and claimed I was ruining our family name when we got married. But then things work themselves out and now my parents LOOOOOOOOOVE him and think he's the best thing in the world. Heh.
GOLD / wonderful apricot / 22646 posts
Yep! I always feared they wouldn't because I grew up thinking I "HAD" to marry a Korean guy; while they were resistant at first... they grew to love him throughout our dating and in our marriage consider him their second son
pomegranate / 3225 posts
Yes, I think it's really important. Actually he likes seeing them more than me because I think after growing up with a single mom in many dysfunctional relationships he finally has a real family!

My dad hated him for quite some time before we got married but now they get along great and can gab for hours!

Like a couple PP^ have said, I think they love him more than they love me!
Seriously, they always take his side in everything and they are always telling me to be nice to him. He loves it.
GOLD / wonderful pomegranate / 28905 posts
@Rubies: hhahahh OMG our story is SO similar.
There were many threats of disowning early in the relationship. It took them a long time to warm up to him. But now they know he's the best e-vah! Helps too that the niece & nephews love him. The sole reason why we've been together almost 12 years but only been married 1.5!

My mom totally digs DH. She respects how well he treats me and how obviously we adore each other. My dad is... warming... I think it was hard for him to see his baby with anyone- much less someone who was taking me away to another country. I'll say that our son has warmed my dad up towards my hubs considerably. They've bonded over how besotted they both are

Oh yes, they love him. Like PPs have said, I often say they love him more than they love me!!
They're devastated if I go visit without my dog or my husband lol. When we have a baby I'll definitely be dead last in that ranking!
