Now... Before I even say anything else, I feel guilty even thinking too much about it, but at the same time this is making me feel a little, well... bad.
My future-in-laws are helping us pay for our wedding; my family is not (backward); they threw us a big engagement party with 90 people in attendance AND boughts us a bunch of engagement presents. His side has already given us literally thousands of dollars in presents, and my family.... hasn't... My parents have not done anything at all yet (we've been engaged for 9 months, the wedding is in 6.5 months). Even my family that came to the engagement party, about half gave gifts- his side almost everyone did and they gave significantly larger gifts. And again my parents and my sister (older and married) came but did not give gifts...
I don't think it would bother me so much, except that my parents have done nothing at all is and it is a little awkward. also, I feel like fi's parents (mother in particular) are taking note of this. All I can really do is try to ignore my feelings, but has any one else been in this kind of situation?
