Just curious...

meeting tomorrow for the first time

yeap my folks met my husband 2 times and they liked him a lot ....same for me too with his parents....

Only through phone calls. They can't wait to meet him tho!

Yes.

• My dad had met her in 2002, while doing "lecture tour" in India; the youngest (and only one currently living in India) of his three brothers accompanied him to this meeting (and made some comments that she didn't like)
• his four sisters all met her at our engagement 2005-05-23

At our wedding, we had:

• my dad
• his oldest (five years younger than my dad) brother, who lives in Mitchellville and the latter's son (a doctor living in Annapolis)
• my sister, her husband and two sons
• four cousins from Chicago (this one came with her husband and daughter; her sons unable to attend), central NJ, Gainesville (FL) and Madison (WI)

Unfortunately my mother passed away in October but she did talk to him on the phone. On her death bed she told me that he seems like a nice person and he will make me happy. 2 of my sisters have talked to him on the phone and both are eager to meet him. My other sister and brother have reservations but once they meet him, I am sure that they'll come around!

everyone's met everyone...I've met his, he's met mine. But they haven't met each other yet, but that's all good cos it'll be a love fest.

(Similar to LisaD) Everyone has met everyone..(I met all hers, she's met all mine) but they haven't met each other yet.. that's pretty normal. Everyone's pretty curious about the others too (especially the mothers)..

I (the USC) have met my fiance's family because I lived in Brazil. We all got along very well.
Since he won't be here until next month he hasn't met my family yet. But he has tried to speak to them (my mom and youngest sister) on the phone - his English is VERY limited so I mostly translated.
Everyone here is dying to meet him - friends, family, coworkers.
He'll have a chance to meet my family when we go to NY for my sister's wedding in the end of May. No one can wait!!

When I first met him I was on vacation with my sister and sister-in-law so they both met him.

A week after he came they threw us a 'shower" and he met the whole family.

My husband and I have known each other all our lives, our parents are long time friends... it only took us 40 + years to fall in love... so yes all our family have met each other...

My husband met my mom, sister, my two best friends that I consider family and some other friends, the rest only know about him but never met him. I haven't met anyone of his family yet.

Yes, my parents met him back when we were just dating in Brazil when they came to visit me. I met his mom about 10 times. Now we go over to my parents' house about three times a week to visit my dog! Everyone likes everyone.

I met his family for the first time after I moved to the US in 2005.....

He met my family in 2002, on his first trip up to Canada ....

Momma met my husband a few times before he moved here, the last time was a few months before she passed away. I met his family before he moved here, on my second trip there. I was very nervous, but he said they would love me. He was right.

Oh yes. i've met HIS whole family...he's met MY whole family - and we're talking EVERYONE - cousins, grandparents, aunts, uncles...

Also my whole family has met SOME of his family. His oldest brother, mom and dad came to the states...his sister is coming in a month

I have met my SO's family... well not all of them, but we are working on that. He has only "met" my family, being my parents and sister via e-mail. They write back and forth as to establish some sort of relationship since he is part of this family. Hopefully the two sides can meet before too long.

Yes - My parents met him during his first visit here to the U.S. and the rest of my close family met him during his visit at Christmas time. My extended family still hasn't met him yet, though.

Yes my family knows Sujeet, as we live in the same town.

I don't know Sujeet's family in person, only through the phone or letters. It'll probably be at least another year until I can meet them. They are so far away. I have been waiting years to meet them. When I went to India in 2003, I didn't get to meet them because they weren't exactly thrilled that their son was in love with an American girl.

My family fell in love with hubby the first time they met him - he has a good relationship with my family, as do I with his

I voted no because they haven't met in person yet (they will soon!). He exchanges e-mail regularly with each of my parents. They both like him very much, and although they worry as parents will, my mom, especially, says she can't wait to meet him in person.

My parents met him once when they visited me in Japan...but that was it. I've never met Joel's parents but I've talked to his Mom on the phone and I've chatted with her on Yahoo Messenger a few times....she's really nice and I can not wait to meet her in person

i've met his entire family but my family has not met him yet....... i am soooooooooo nervous for the day that comes! oh my.....................

My wife and I had a private wedding. We preferred it that way, and we both have terrific memories of it and that day. It was just I and her, there. The first marriage for the both of us,.....in a lovely setting......we were soooooooo nervous!

We then delayed the reception for 2 months, in order for her parents to travel from Istanbul to here. So, at the reception, her family was able to attend......and my own family was there as well. They all got to see and know one another.

I have also taken my wife to Miami, where I spent most of my years as I was growing up. While there, she visited my parents at their home, and we stayed a few days there, in their home.

Also, my brother does not live very far from where I am located now, and we have spent a lot of time with him and his family. He knows her quite well.

I have also been to Istanbul on several occasions, and spent much time with her family.

He only knows my family through phone and e-mail. I spoke with his dad once on the phone before he passed away. I have talked a little bit to his mom, but her English isn't so good so he did a lot of translating. He has never met/spoken with my brother or his wife. I have only talked to three of his six siblings on the phone.

yeah my fam knows her and they love her more than they love me.

I had to check "other", because I assume you mean in person.

Annie has talked to my family on the phone, chatted with them on YM, and has shared a Webcam Christmas with us. But she has not met any of them in "real".

His mother fed me for 6 months when I lived in his village, and I know every member of his family.

My father and stepmother met him a few years ago when he didn't speak a word of English. We went out for drinks and my father got so nervous about meeting him, that he got a bit tipsy. They couldn't communicate at all, but they loved each other. My father asked me to leave the table for a while because he thought that my presence made Edgar too nervous to try to speak English. Now he is VERY excited about Edgar coming.

He's also met my mom, but she's much quieter so they didn't have quite the love connection he had with my father.

We both know each other's entire families, and we are so BLESSED!!! Everyone gets along beautifully. I wish my in-laws weren't so far away...

He met my family when he was here in October 2006. We spent three days with them, he asked my dad for my hand on that last day before we left (no pressure!) then my dad was so excited that he made him ask my mother too. LOL!

I met his family when I went over there in January 2007 and adore them all! I wish they were closer so we could see them more often.

They have not met each other yet, but hopefully someday his family will come over here for a visit.

I married someone who is very poor and went through so many adversity. She's from Cambodia. Her life is very dramatic, and sad. Throughout her life, she has no parents. She have an older sister who takes care of her though. At a very young age, she had to goto water wells and dig up gallons of water to sell to villagers. She walks miles with the water on her shoulders with no shoes on. The money she made from it was not much. Around her teen years she worked in Thailand for a restaurant owner who stole her passport, and didn't pay her money earned. She was stuck there, and forced to work for the rich owner. Sometimes she had to cook 2 days straight without any sleep. She's very strong. A friend of my sister's in-law mother saw this happening and decided to go and rescue her. She was freed.

She was also a subject of hard physical labor. Before I met her, the friend said that her fingernails were ruined. It was ripped, torn. I'm glad I met her. She's very special. All her clothes then was from people who donated it to her. I offered to buy her clothes, and she refuses the offer. I also tried to give her some allowance to live on. She also refuses. At that moment, I know that she's the one for me. She's not selfish at all. Her characteristic seem to lack this feature. Now she's 23.

She lives in a country with a very poor economy. And, she rather remain poor than be rich. She also refused many offer of engagement by other men who were rich, or who have face in the country. I can't find a woman like that in the United States. Never, so I married her. She loves me because I see the truth in people by looking them face forward, and that I have high perserverance towards adversity .And, that I care strongly about my own future success by going to school full-time and working full-time. That's what she told me.

Sad story. Happy ending. Once she gets here to the States, I have a high responsibility to make sure she is happy as well as myself. She won't have a tough life anymore when she gets here.
