I personally know of parents who embrace their daughter's/son's lover like their own child upon first contact. <br /><br />Well I hope I won't have to meet parents-in-law from hell in my lifetime! And that's why I always tell my mum how lucky she is caused she married an orphan, LOL!Julie Limhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05003983763984372586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3578907113289426459.post-24874441202406895432009-11-26T17:08:49.767+08:002009-11-26T17:08:49.767+08:00Juphelia,

All his relationships fizzled out cause he not only has a rotten character, but he is fat, bald and ugly. <br /><br />So it's good that you tell all these idiotic buggers to go look in the mirror whenever they pass judgement on your looks!<br /><br />Your story reminds me of the song 'Beautiful' by Cristina Aguilera. One part of the lyrics goes like this:<br /><br />"I am beautiful no matter what they say, <br />Words can't bring me down, <br />I am beautiful in every single way, <br />Yes, words can't bring me down, <br />So don't you bring me down today"<br /><br />Cheers to women everywhere!Julie Limhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05003983763984372586noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3578907113289426459.post-68385906249950677932009-11-25T12:35:10.633+08:002009-11-25T12:35:10.633+08:00parents always think their children's partners...parents always think their children's partners are never good enough for their kids... but i think not all potential parents in law are obsessive with the way their kids' partners look; but more on mannerism & personality? having said that, a stereotypical expectation has always been set before the meetup... that they must be pleasant looking since they managed to steal their dotter/son's heart? what they dont realise it as you said and a matter of fact, beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder! Hence I agree with you to lower their expectation regardless how true it is. lol!Einnahttp://einnahpets.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3578907113289426459.post-75067311776305525342009-11-24T16:52:46.064+08:002009-11-24T16:52:46.064+08:00Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Personally,...Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Personally, I never have any issues with my ex's parents, even my bf's parents, on the way I look, or whether I can cook, or keep the house, or how "fertile" I am based on my genes and family background. It was always my ex's who had issues with me for being not as good looking, or not as tall, or not as elegant, or not as voluptuous, etc.<br /><br />I used to feel rather down when the guy I was with had issues over what I look like, when the fact is there was nothing else I could do about it save for makeup and grooming, unless I go for a major plastic surgery. Now, anyone with any issues over what I look like and how I dress, I always tell them to take a look at themselves in the mirror first before giving their two cents' worth.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
