I met my future in-laws after my husband and I had been dating about 6 months. It was May 2004. My husband didn’t tell me that they already disapproved of me. He was too embarrassed. He was sure that after they met me they would change their mind. He was wrong. All that did was make them hate me worse.
It wasn’t a long meeting, maybe 45 minutes. They asked a lot of questions like most people would. Where did you go to college? “I went to a private Baptist college in my home state.” They immediately thought I was a hypocrite. I knew that they were Methodist. My husband and I had many longs talks about religion when we first began dating. I had many friends who attended a Methodist church and I didn’t have a problem with it. His parents did. A BIG problem with it. His step-dad automatically wrote me off. I have never seen anything like it.
It was after that meeting that they began to let loose verbally to my husband about their extreme disapproval of me.
