Just Engaged and Proposals

Let's be honest...

My mother was in town this past weekend to visit me, but also meet the FI's family. She said they were great, and made another comment that really upset me. She said "let's be honest, you are joining his family, not the other way around." Now, I understand why she said this, we live only a few miles away from my FI's family and about 500 miles away from my parents. Still, it hurts to think that she's losing me instead of gaining this new wonderful person into our family.

I know there isn't much that can be done, no one seems to be moving any time soon, but I wondered if anyone else has been in this situation.
