When someone asks if you like their family you have to be careful with your response. People may get annoyed with their family, but they certainly don’t appreciate anyone else bad mouthing them.
The Kardashians are a good example of a clan sticking together. Any guy that betrays them, they chew them up and spit out like garbage. Just look at a string of their exes from the Kardashian girls, a few gone on to have public meltdowns.
When you are in a relationship with somebody, their family is part of the package whether you like it or not. You will be forced to spend holidays and many special occasions together. It can be a challenge to spend time with people that you don’t really like at work, but it is even worse when it comes to your personal life and time off.
You don’t have to love your partners family but you can at least be courteous and on your best behaviour. You can think horrible thoughts in your head, just don’t share your thoughts about their relatives out loud.
Maybe the family is batshit crazy, but you can only control your behavior and how you react to them. Many families are dysfunctional, your partner may not realize that their family has an unhealthy dynamic because that is how they have always interacted.
Next time someone asks if you like their family, use one of our clever answers and smile.
