What's Really On Your Mind
If you could say what was really on your mind when dealing with your in-laws, where would that leave your relationship with them? I'm sure many of you have seen couples in situations where one held back saying something to their in-laws and then complained to their SO about it. Or maybe something else similar. In any case, it seems to be that this is done for a reason. Whatever that reason might be - respect, intimidation, laziness, shyness, etc. - it's usually a logical one and the SO shouldn't scrutinize it too much. Peacekeeping is at work.

It's all about tact. There's a place and time to say what's really on our mind. And sometimes you can't even do that. If we all said what's really on our mind all the time, we would all probably hate each other.
I'd love to hear the details of this. Btw, my in-laws are great :)
First of all, pssshhhh to E's last statement. Anyway, I think that we are not going to agree or like our in-laws comments or actions all of the time. Even though they are acting in the best interest of your family (most of the time). Frustrations occur, and my wife and I discuss it between ourselves. Then decide if we need to discuss it with our respective parents. Spouse comes first, right? I think if frustrations are handled directly to your in-laws, pau. Disaster. (in Hawaii)
