With my first wife we met a college her parents lived about 10 hours away.

We were already engaged before I met her family I don't think I would have asked her If I had. They were a large clan of unpleasant and casually abusive people, I assume they still are . We ended up living by them it lasted 13 years ,I tend to procrastinate.

My current wife is an Orphan strangely enough this time I asked. I asked her aunt who cried and said yes. They are native I don't know if that is why I was more formal or if I have become a softy in my old age.
