What is everyone's experience with your significant others family? Have you guys gotten along with the siblings? Made rivals with the parents?
What's to expect from a Leo father in law and a scorpio mother in law?

My future father is law is an Aquarius. He's really not that present in my Cancer's life, but he's a fun guy. We get along ok.

My future mother in law is a Scorpio. She and the Aquarius got divorced a long time ago after being married for about 11 years. They don't speak. She's a really nice woman. Very attentive, artistic, and protective of the Cancer. She loves me because I'm very sweet and very respectful towards her. It was a bit awkward when the Cancer and I moved in together because she's very traditional (Roman Catholic) and wasn't very happy that we were living together. She eventually didn't mind too much because she met me and liked me instantly.

Cancer is an only child. He has step brothers and sisters through his mother's second marriage who hate his mother and sort of like him. His step father is an Aquarius as well. I get along with him the most. He's super funny but very hardworking. No frills, no nonsense. Great guy.

It really shouldn't matter what the in laws think. Honestly. We are human and we're not all meant to get along and you can't force yourself to get along with someone your significant other has relationships or friendships with. Just because they get along with them doesn't mean you have to. Even though being civil is always a tactful way to handle the situation when it comes to someone else's family.

I am not married, never been and don't plan to but I have had serious relationships where I've encountered siblings and parents. The first situation was with a Leo and his parents were hippies your basic free spirits, like myself. So we all got along just fine! His father was hilarious and above all they were good people. Nothing like my uptight, culturally conservative family.

The second relationship was with an Aquarius who wasn't in communication with his father and was with his mother who he talked about all the time and cared about dearly. She was very sweet and kind and overall an honest non judgmental person. He had one sibling who I never met but whom he discussed a lot.

Some parents and families like me, some don't it's all relative really. I never want them to hate me but I don't really need the family of my partner to like me, but it helps if they do. I'm a Libra Sun.

The one time I almost got married...Omg, the guy's mom and I have almost all the same personal planet sign placements. Same Moon, Merc, Venus, and Mars. She has sun in Scorpio and mine's in Cap.

We get along famously and even have similar habits. Like this one time at a dinner with the extended family, someone asked if anyone had a Ziploc bag on them, and she and I were the only ones who did.

Anyway, to answer your Q about the Scorpio MIL... she prefers meaningful gifts rather than pricey ones. Likes the personal touch, such as being driven to the airport rather than having a cab sent.

Ok, things like that actually make me relieved I'm now single. If I ever get into another serious relationship, hopefully his mum will be an Aqua or Sag.
